Alibre compared to Surfcam

[drakesis]

Hi All,
How is Alibre compared to Surfcam. I know it's not really the same 'type' of software, but I've been using Surfcam since 2000, and thats what I mainly use, sides Mastercam once in awhile.

What I'd like to know is, is it easy to design in it? If I'm used to Surfcam's tools, and GUI?

Well Surfcam is a CAD & CAM program, Alibre is just CAD that offers Sprut CAM as a 3rd party plug in.
