I had my place of employment get a license for our use. There was
nothing else in the price range that compares with it, IMO. The
open-source solutions are interesting, but not there yet. Maybe in a few
years. Once you spend a few days with it you learn the obscurities.
There aren't many gripes that I can think of at the moment. The labeling
of nets to connect across sheets is a bit of a kludge, and I wish the
net (wire) drawing tool was smarter, but neither of those are things to
make me dislike the program in general.
We didn't buy the autorouter, and I don't miss it. Half of what I do is
analog anyway. I'd say for relatively small boards, Eagle is a good buy.
If you're making an 8 layer motherboard, something else is definitely
better.
