Tough program to learn. Needs improve in almost every area.

The rendering program is ok. Its better then top notch products like SolidWorks. The program is a great hybrid between architecture and product based program. I use it for event based products, so it meets my minimum standards. The program does allow for quick easy pricing and engineering.

Vectorworks Architect is BIM for design

Vectorworks integrates robust free-form 3D modeling, BIM modeling, 2D drafting, and excellent rendering (with Renderworks) into a single application. Having all these aspects of architectural software integrated in a single application supports the inherently iterative nature of the design process—the user doesn't have to export a 3D model to BIM and then draft separately. When the inevitable design changes and refinements occur downstream, it's easy to explore 3D options free-form, render them, incorporate them into the BIM model, and update any supporting 2D documentation.

Accessible CAD, for 2D, 3D and even BIM

Fast and efficient drafting, with good object snapping, control over visual output and layout. Quite complete, including full 3D kernel (Parasolid) and integrated rendering. More and more supporting BIM workflows, including IFC exchange. The integrated spreadsheet allows you to measure quantities from drawn elements. Also supports OSX and fairly cheap when comparing with regular CAD software, such as AutoCAD.
