Apart from this both packages focus on architectural, structural, mechanical and general design and documentation. AutoCAD takes on electrical application simulation and development, whereas CorelCAD doesn’t have this feature. Second, the main disciplines that both of these cover are almost the same. AutoCAD has the facility to be activated based on a monthly payment plan, CorelCAD doesn’t… but then again, if the difference is that big, a plan is not really of any need here. Where AutoCAD’s full featured package is for something around USD 1600, CorelCAD offers pretty much the same for ~ USD 800 (these prices are for the sake of reference taken from the official websites and vary based on time period, geographical location, retailer demand etc.). Here we put CorelCAD and AutoCAD head to head in a comparison to see when and where to use which of these packages.įirst, the most notable difference – the price is a good grand apart. The industry knows the name, and CorelCAD is up for game. The authors of CorelDraw have for the engineering design and development industry, CorelCAD with feature and functions that combat every other heavy weight CAD software amicably. But design and illustration was what CorelDraw systems were famous for, by no means, did their product line end there.

Now Adobe is the name one hears more often even though CorelDraw and other design/illustration applications from the CorelDraw portfolio still have a strong hold. Since the introduction of Adobe Photoshop and other Adobe products (Illustrator etc.), a huge user base of the CorelDraw design and illustration suite made the move. This package was by no means meant for engineering designs or architectural blueprint development even though the general scope of the software did inhibit the basic fundamentals for such work. Their most accomplished software package was under the same name released as a general drawing and illustration software for designers and digital artists alike.
