We chose VariCAD for our company almost 4 years ago and if you want to
compare, we think it beat Autocad for all our 2d uses and we have done
much 3d work as well. I never could get 3d right in Autocad. It is
intended for mechanical work and no architectural tools are included. They
still offer a free trial I think and the cost is a lot less than most out
there but it's a wonderful tool.
This is what we do with it:
