The Autodesk Desktop App makes managing installs and deployment easy across our organization. > > **Cons**: AutoCAD LT sacrifices a few features around BIM and 3D that you would find in AutoCAD > > I use AutoCAD LT to quickly assess floorplans and to do test fits of new tenant spaces to confirm that we can meet their needs ----- ### "My Autocad experience" — 5.0/5 > **Karic** | *September 25, 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to use and to make update to the drawings as the project gets underway in the field. I collect real survey points at the job site and can create the as-built for the city. > > **Cons**: It use to be the print menu, but this latest version (2023) is much better. > > I have been using Autocad for over 20 years. I took a class in College and loved it right away. ----- ### "Perfect for Site Maps" — 5.0/5 > **Jack** | *January 17, 2026* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Layers feature - on complex site drawings, having the ability the add drawings onto seperate layers means you can individually edit/turn then off to shoe exactly what is needed at the time. For example you can show just the 'Drainage' layer of required. > > **Cons**: There is a raft of line settings such as colour/weight which can be locked with global/local settings or imported from previous drawings which can easily get muddled and complicated - many times I have been trying to change a line weighting only to find it is locked via a layer setting. > > Overall this software is very powerful and great for managing site drawings at a very detailed level. Even for potential project work, less detailed drawings can be taken and formed as proof of concept with minimal dimensions which can be very handy for project feasability studies. ----- ### "One line is all you need." — 5.0/5 > **Josh** | *April 21, 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Doesn't have really any differences from the 2D other AutoCAD software. > > **Cons**: Not a knock on this, but AutoCAD does run into issues when the new year software comes out. I have used CAD in some format for close to 15yrs. > > I use it almost daily and I don't really know of any other product or competitor that can compete at the Autodesk level unless you are looking for like pretty pictures. CAD will get the job done and very easy to use. ----- ### "Good Software with Precision and Accuracy" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *February 6, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Really great application for architectural drawings and visualizing objects in 3D view, Accuracy is on point, we can draw precise drawings are true to scale as well > > **Cons**: Very very costly, and functions are quite complex to understand as a beginner. Rendering takes time depending on system capability. Maybe AI could be implemented in further versions for better functionality ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/2011/autocad-lt?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/2011/autocad-lt) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
