I also have been trying out Fusion 360.  It has some drawbacks but at this
point I am willing to put up with them for the CAM package.  Importing an
stl from Alibre works well enough.  It puts out some decent G code in my
opinion, and the post processor is easy to modify(If you know any
javascript).

So its web based, but $300 won't buy you maintenance for any other equally
powerful cam.

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
