Lighter option to AutoCAD complete edition, yet uselful enough
Comments: It's been a satisfactory experience from the first time. I was used to work with the complete autocad edition but the price is way more elevated that the LT version and I really haven't had any issue with this so far.
Pros:
It has all the must have features that AutoCAD has for 2D planning, drawing, reading and development. Works great for my projects and it is perfect that it includes
Cons:
It has no 3D modeling of any kind, which is not always necessary, but in some cases you might need it.

It's the standard because it's better
Comments: We have saved a lot of time with AutoCAD LT with the constant use of library functions. The speed of the program is great, it's faster than all the other programs we've used in the past.
Pros:
AutoCAD LT offers features that other similar alternatives does not offer. It permits to have an extensive library of already drawn items. Instead of copying and pasting from previous drawings, we can draw it once, save it in the library and call on it whenever we like.
Cons:
With all great things there is usually a cons list, but for now the only con we've seen is the unfortunate trend of companies "forcing" to purchase an annual subscription to the product. Don't get me wrong, Autodesk offers a permanent licence but at a pretty steep cost. It may eventually be cost-effective, but with all the new features, bug fixes and incompatibility issues that arise with every new release, we are "forced" or lured to take the path of an annual subscription. But we are living in 2020, and like in The Mandalorian: "This is the way!".

excellent app
Comments: Overall the experience is very good, we use it daily in our office, developing projects quickly and lightly.
Pros:
Excellent application, offers the possibility of 2D drawings without complications in a lighter way than Autocad, intuitive interface, main resources available in the main tab
Cons:
The application does not allow 3d drawing and visualization

Drawing program
Comments: It is an application that I can quickly model an easy 2 dimensional object. I can access this model I designed on the web and mobile.
Pros:
Provides the opportunity to create 2D drawings with easy-to-use drawing tools; It is software that supports desktop, web and mobile applications. It gives the user the chance to make 2D drawings very quickly.
Cons:
It cannot perform 3D modeling and visualization processes. It cannot perform the creation of images (render output) with lighting, materials and visual styles.

Alternatives Considered:
Great Product
Pros:
User interface, the multitiude of work that can be done, page set up
Cons:
Ideally, It would be easier if templates were less arduios to to set up - architectural contemporay templates ready to go for varying project sizes would be preffered
