It delivers a remarkably complete set of CAD, CAM and CAE tools in one environment. The interface is clean and intuitive and relatively easy to master.

I find the software to be very slow. When trying to create sketches with a splines and curves you need to be really patient. The user interface and commands are not intuitive and require online learning

Performance of Fusion 360 Across Market Features

Fusion 360 Likes & Dislikes

The integration of modeling, simulation, and manufacturing in one place is fantastic. The rendering and generative design features are surprisingly strong for a single package.

G-Code is good once created, able to use external fonts, tool library is decent

i really enjoy rendering the items i design with the correct material or texture applied to it so that i can have real-life expectation of my design. the functionnalities are deepened with every update without changing the software too much so you never get lost. i enjoy having many files saved and accessible even from a mobile device so that i can check mesurements later on.

The software can be quite resource-heavy, especially on less powerful computers. The constant internet connection requirement can be annoying at times. Updates change the interface slightly, wich disrupts workflow.

Slow, Hard to use, Limited

sometimes the software is heavy and lags, some functions are really not intuitive or not very clear on how to use them, the constraints are really confusing and mess up the design easily if you're not careful. it lacks some training around it.

product is extremely powerful, if you can think of a design, you an create it in Fusion 360. Learning curve is steep for complex tasks, but the basics are simple
