    I work in the real estate department of a corporate company. Even if I work with DWG files, i don't need to work on the drawing to make changes. AutoCad provided mw to the best tools and features to make detailed design reviews. The program interface is understandable, it runs smooth and fast and I rarely experience technical issues thta I need to roubleshoot.
