I get some of you really don't like Autodesk, but the bottom line is Fusion 360 is a very good software with fantastic support for an order of magnitude less cost than anything that is comparably powerful.
I would disagree and modify your statement. You have said, yourself, in several of your posts, that you are very intelligent, very quick to learn new things, and are a better machinist/programmer than most. Unless I am mixing you up with someone else?
Fantastic support.... where do you get this? How much do I have to pay for that added feature? I have to pull teeth, call multiple people, send multiple emails, just to get a peep from Autodesk? Usually it is 3-5 days to get a response, and rarely does that response answer the question, it is just to rehash what the question is. Their forums are a joke, unless you are willing to post your part. I have several threads asking questions that no one responded to, or no one responded with anything actually answering the question. I would have to look through my emails, but I have easily a dozen un-responded to emails to autodesk employees. One from the forum had me do something with a part so that he could access it, he never did fix the problem, and now I can't access my part. The last autodesk employee that looked at it finally said, and I quote, "I don't know, I'd recommend remaking the part." Literally HOURS probably 10-15, lost...
I have numerous parts that have issues. My favorite one, I was trying to drill a hole. No matter what I did Fusion said it couldn't drill the hole. I've had... I think 3 Autodesk employees look at it over the course of the last year, all 3 have said, try remaking the part. I have well over 40 hours in the parts, fixturing, and programming.
The most common response I get from Autodesk employees "Uh..... I don't know"
I know natecox is a big fan of Fusion and he claims to take minutes programming complex parts. I suppose if you are of above average intelligence or have hours to tweak in a part then you could consider it good... but very good? No... I don't think so.
