What's wrong with SolidWorks?

If you dont like solidworks then use catia you can get good surface finish.

Surfaces can be difficult in SOLIDWORKS, but I'm not sure you'll find many alternatives which are easier.
Are you looking to make organic shapes? That is where I'd say the limitation in SOLIDWORKS exists.
Are you planning to use the CAD data for manufacturing? That is one of the strengths of SOLIDWORKS.

Post some images of what you are planning to design and I'm sure people will have some suggestions.
I was never able to operate it well, but a lot of people making "curvy models" swear by Rhinoceros: https://www.rhino3d.com/
