I have not used it.

Have you looked at Kicad? It is used by both professionals and hobbyists,
and being open source, is not reliant on RS to update it.

Now there is a decent open source PCB layout program,  I would not suggest
anyone learn a new proprietary package unless there were very good
reasons,  such as an employer says you must use a particular program.
