AVEVA Engineering vs. PTC Creo

This solution is an effective tool and the must platform for the Engineers working on multiple Civil Engineering projects since it allows easy access to all documents and other important information across all the Civil Engineering and Construction projects. The scheduling, easy activity tracking, and project expense and equipment management, AVEVA Engineering provides effective functionalities.

PTC Creo is great for assemblies that multiple users are collaborating on. Models can reference other models that someone in another department has released and when those models are changed, the referenced parts and assemblies are changed. These changes are very helpful when working on collaborative machine designs and comparing forging dies with the final parts.

• Engineering project management.
• Project information management.
• Scheduling is excellent.

• PTC Creo contains many advanced tools with better optimization for creating part models and other production related drawings.
• The initial concept designs can be done more adequately.
• The parameters of 2D drawings can be changed easily by editing the 3D model.
• The productivity can be increased by customized tools for modeling.

Incentivized

• AI and document [processing] section
• OCR and datasheet template imports
• Creating/deleting tags via TMS

Incentivized

• No autosave
• No clear message if it has problems saving the file
• Not so easy to use
• In my experience, has a lot of things missing that other CAD already have in years
• In my experience, it's extremely easy to lose work/time

I liked the training manuals I used to learn some, as I didn’t have CAD background in college or before this job. My coworkers were able to share with me what they learned in PTC training and I was able to get support online and through reading.

The AVEVA Engineering Civil Engineering services quality and quick creation of multiple Engineering plans and other files are easy and even editing of drawings is effective. AVEVA Engineering tools were very easy to custom and they help create excellent Engineering and Construction reports and the best data analytics generation and are easy to coordinate through AVEVA Engineering functions.

Learning curve of SOLIDWORKS is higher compared to Creo, however, stability and more design control is provided by Creo. Creo also have more robust and stable interfaces. For larger assemblies, Creo works better than SOLIDWORKS. New upgrades of Creo has given liberty to open different file data of different software without any file conversion. Creo costs comparable to SOLIDWORKS cost, with more capabilities.
