After about 30 years of Autocad, I had to give up because of the outrageous pricing policy. Draftsight provided a welcome replacement, but because the change of policy last year, I had to find another (free) alternative.
I tried LibreCad and DoubleCad; both were not satisfactory either by lacking functionalities or by a weird UI.
I'm happy to report that NanoCad provides me with a UI that's absolutely consistent with Autocad (same shortcuts).
Learning curve was almost inexistent and I have experienced 100% bug-free operation in 3 Weeks of daily use.
Only factor that could deter some is that it comes from Russia. I must admit I was a little worried when I pressed the download button. So far I have no sign of the KGB spying on me...
