    AutoCAD LT: when it makes sense.

    AutoCAD LT works perfectly for light 2D CAD; for 3D work or a very tight budget, explore other options.

    Keep if

    You mostly do 2D technical drawing.. You have a limited budget compared to full AutoCAD.

    AutoCAD LT becomes worthwhile when
    • You use it at least once a week
    • The monthly cost (€63) is small next to the time it saves you

    Challenge if

    You need serious 3D modeling.. You work on very complex projects.

    AutoCAD LT becomes too expensive when
    • You use it less than once a month
    • A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
