Awesome software
I am a retired software manager and just started using Fusion 360 about a year ago. I have to say I am VERY pleased with the functionality. It is awesome software and works very well. I don’t use some of the more advanced features but I have used the designing portion quite a bit to create and modify 3D models for printing. I have also used some of the machining functions on my 3 axis homemade CNC and it works flawlessly. I would like to personally thank the designers and management for allowing hobbyists like myself to use the software free of charge. Because I am retired I would never have been able to afford to purchase this. So THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! I have spoken highly of this software to some of my friends that own their own businesses and they showed a lot of interest. Hopefully they will purchase it. They were quite impressed that I could show them the 3D models I created on my iPhone.

Unrivaled CAD/CAM
I have used a handful of CAM software programs over the past two decades on a daily basis. Fusion 360 has room to grow but that is one of the things that makes it superior to other softwares, they are actively taking customer feedback and implementing improvements that are actually useful. Hands down the price is unbeatable for a powerful CAD/CAM software. There is no other program out there that has such a broad array of tools that all perform well. CAD, CAM, mechanical drawings, PCB design, analysis, generative design, 3D printing integration, cloud collaboration- Fusion 360 is all of this and so much more. Another great thing about Fusion is the vast amount of training available through Autodesk. It’s as if they actually want people to learn how to use this software. I rarely leave product reviews but this one is well deserved.

Excellent work in progress
I think if i was paying for Fusion 360 I would have rated it a 3 star program against other programs like Solidworks or catia, but being free to Hobbyists it is the absolute best package available for this market. It's the first to include CAM, simulation, and sheet metal features all built in at no extra charge, which is amazing! The other reason Im giving it 5 stars is they are actively developing it, and they are willing to listen to user feedback to improve the program. There are certainly some areas where it needs some improvement to really be competitive in a professional setting, but I think its getting there. The mobile app is also a nice touch. Very useful to be able to show my designs to others to bounce ideas off them.
