They're all a pain the ass. Even commercial stuff such as Proteus and Multisim. Then there's Mentor's offering which is barf.

(I did a spot writing some workflow software for an engineering team a few years back).

Honestly, I've always felt that EAGLE was great. They have a severely limited "free" (as in beer) version, and I really prefer that to KiCad.

It doesn't help that KiCad is horrendously broken on OS X, so I have to use it in a VM.
