Features

CorelCAD contains all the necessary features of a computer-aided design (CAD) application, but lacks the advanced features which can be found in Autodesk AutoCAD. It can support graphics formats such as DWG, CDR, DXF, SHP, and more.[4]
Compared to AutoCAD, CorelCAD has a cleaner and easier interface to use and learn. However, it lacks the robust features in AutoCAD.
