Horizon EDA is nice, with push and shove router (from KiCAD), but I truly dislike (in addition to part management you mentioned) that instead of highlighting track/part/via it draws, often ambiguous, ugly, bracket around it.

FreeCAD is great and very capable (I used Fusion 360 before) if you spent more time with it and switch to glass add-on and other tweaks. Program defaults make it unappealing.
