Having used it in the work. My 2 cts about the not free version: KEEP AWAY. RUN! Cannot do much more than any free SPICE, complex licensing, buggy. Is just like the LabVIEW of simulations.

I haven't used the free Version though.

One of the advantages Dymola had a few years ago was an extremely advanced vehicle dynamics toolbox, to the point where it is considered a standard for NASCAR [1]. This is one of the tool's originating claims to fame circa 2015-19 when I was bringing it into a previous employer in the automotive industry. For some applications that are "first class", you will have a great experience with Dymola. Where they have filled in the blanks in toolboxes, however, you are likely not a cut above other tools.
