Hey there! As a 3D printer addict I do a lot of small parts in CAD to print and use around the house. Lately I’ve been exploring all sorts of CAD software since finding out there’s a more around than just Fusion360 and Onshape so I started exploring what’s out there and jotting down my impressions.
Hope this is not spam, just want to help people see what’s around and help them pick!
Thank you very much for the recommendation! I haven’t seen Plasticity yet in any “CAD shootout” comparisons and it looks super interesting.
$100 for a non-subscription commercial license is probably the most appealing part right out the gate.
You are welcome! I liked the interface and some of the workflows. It is more on the artistic side of things but totally capable of product design.
If you want a similar price for a more CAD-y like software (sketch/feature-based) Alibre Atom3D should approach that price (also non-subscription), though pricing may be regional. The italian reseller asks for 180eur (but already had a discount down to 130) which isn’t as cheap but definitely within the same range.
