    Mathcad works with units with an engineer's point of view, mathematica works with an academic/theoretical point of view for mathematicians.

    Redundant display of equations and data. No auto-resolve when changing a variable or constant content upstream to an equation. Works more like a command prompt line than like a equation editor. Not a proper format for documentation of calculations. Painful handling of units.

    Very easy syntax to tap on, thus making it very convenient to do engineering calculation with units,function,plot and substitution. In a word, almost a perfect alternative for Calcpad.
