They all have advantages and disadvantages. In general, the one with the least disadvantages is the one you are most familiar with using. In my opinion, the biggest disadvatage (shared among all packages) is the difficulty in translating between packages. Many of us do this daily, and it is a PITA. Solidworks, in particular, is bad in that you can't save to a lower version that could be read by somebody working even 1 version down from you. The second biggest disadvantage (shared among many packages) is the difficulty of sharing data to co-workers without CAD seats or CAD knowledge.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of manual drafting?

Here i say. What do we have here. The drawing is drawn i see. The cad is new. What does that mean. Could it be, that i am afraid to see. How about that. Cad is better than drawing but drawing is better than cad. You see, if you draw then you draw, if you cad then its cad. No need for skills just the computer mind is you. But you are not you unless you draw it by you. So is it really you. Solely down to you. No denying.
