Chose TurboCAD
TurboCAD is a well-priced solution for a small business, it comes standard with 3D modeling compared to Draftsight which does not. The user interface could be updated along with industry-standard shortcut keys but for the number of drawings we do, this package fills the gap. …
Chose TurboCAD
3DS Max is the one I use the most, the other two are good choices also. They have more online tutorials for helping learn them.
Chose TurboCAD
Other very expensive programs are easier to use and are often put in colleges and universities so that the students will stick with them and pay the huge price. There is a sort of "ego" thing about software, just like people have been taught to go with the "most expensive". In …

It is fully capable of all the design work you can give it. I have even designed houses with it. Turbo CAD Pro Platinum is all I have used for going on 3 years now. I don't know if other versions can do or can't do. If you are a graphic designer, you would need to port the files to a higher end program to manipulate the colors and renderings. For engineering and in-house work it is perfect.

Usability

TurboCAD is a well-priced solution for a small business, it comes standard with 3D modeling compared to DraftSight which does not. The user interface could be updated along with industry-standard shortcut keys but for the number of drawings we do, this package fills the gap. The DXF / DWG feature could be worked on too, as above, trying to get in line with other packages like AutoCAD & DraftSight would make the whole package better. All in all, I believe that TurboCAD has a valid foothold in the CAD industry.
