Cycas 3D

Cycas 3D is German Based program with a very different interface to AutoCAD. From Personal experience it not as fast as AutoCAD and is somewhat limited in the 3D modeling. This isn't a recomended program in any way if your used to using AutoCAD the input is confusing. As you can see by the drawing below it took me about a half a year to be able to get to the point of being able to draw that in 3D. I decided to use this program as an example of what not to look for in a CAD program. The only benefit of this program is that it doesn't slow down as much as AutoCAD when drawings get larger. To say the least this program would be best suited to more simplistic drawings and rendering (requires outside rendering program known as POV-RAY).
