McCAD 3SPICE Alternatives
McCAD 3SPICE is described as 'McCAD 3-SPICE is based on the latest version (3F5) of Berkeley's SPICE 3 and permits interactive mixed mode circuit simulation. It was developed specifically to take advantage of the processing speeds available thus permitting extremely fast simulations' and is an app. There are seven alternatives to McCAD 3SPICE for Windows, Linux and Mac. The best McCAD 3SPICE alternative is LTspice, which is free. Other great apps like McCAD 3SPICE are Pspice, Ngspice, Oregano and Gnucap.

Ngspice is a mixed-level/mixed-signal circuit simulator. Its code is based on three open source software packages: Spice3f5, Cider1b1 and Xspice. Ngspice is part of gEDA project, a full GPL'd suite of Electronic Design Automation tools.
oregano - An electrical engineering tool for GNOME
oregano is an application for schematic capture and simulation of electronic circuits. The actual simulation is performed by Berkeley Spice, or GNUcap or the new generation ngspice which is required for simulation, but not neces.
Gnucap is the GNU Circuit Analysis Package, a modern post-spice circuit simulator with several advantages over Spice derivatives.
Simulates and analyses electronic circuits that can range in complexity from a single resistor to an integrated circuit comprising tens-of-thousands of devices.
