Hello,

I a new femm user . I am on the engineering side. This is what I 
think.

++++++
It is free with no limitation of mesh or node .It is not a demo 
version.
You have attached to this software a discussion group which is as 
important as the software itself .Dealing with electromagnetic 
simulation without a good theoretical support (or background) can 
conduct often to false simulation or bad understanding of the 
results. You will often to deal with approximation or assumption even 
before starting you simulation , who will help you them ? People of 
the group. The discussion group is a place you can find engineering 
people and theoretical people . That is gold ! Thanks to David Meeker.
No comercial code have that !
The viewer is good . The plotter and the integrator are very 
interesting to extract the results.

The CAD model constructor is pour . The Lua language can help you. 
DXF files also ?
No bridge to heat transfer simulation as you can find on commercial 
code.

Hope it helps ! Try It !
