Likelihood to Recommend GrabCad Workbench is well suited for group projects, where all my team members can view the designs at the same time, and by integrating it with CAD software like SolidWorks, all my team members can see the live changes in the projects based on the recommendations received. I can also do conversations with my team, which are project-specific, thus reducing time in email and video conferences. For assemblies, I can generate a Bill of materials with a single click. However, there are some drawbacks like every member needs to have an account in order to sync files with everyone, and the platform requires good internet connectivity otherwise file uploading will be time-consuming.
Read full review Teamcenter is growing very well in active workspace as a web-based client, but again, when I'm coming from the manufacturing point of view or a Build of Processes point of view, the software easy plan still needs to improve in a way. Of course, I think they're improving it also in a good way, but it's still not yet matured so from today onwards I can simply ask my users from product resistant to using the plan and push it further. I think there we have to improve more.
Read full review Pros GrabCAD is the source of truth for the files being used GrabCAD is free Easy to use and get started Read full review It is an easy-to-use tool and integrates many capabilities to manage CAD better than any other tool. It is used by many companies with a great global presence and that has generated confidence for us when we decided to try it, the results have been satisfactory. The user interface of this tool is not complex, it is easy to navigate and integrates a lot of functionalities that speed up our work significantly; as well as functionalities such as sectioning, displacing, moving, positioning, transforming, among others that have a lot to do with CAD management. It works via the web through the browser, so it is not necessary to download any application that takes up space and more resources on the computer.

In my opinion, Upgrades are hard to handle. In my opinion, BMIDE deployment is not good. In my opinion, the variation configurator is hard to use. In my opinion, MRL has a bad performance. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Because of our current customer needs, we will most likely maintain use of Siemens PLM products for some time. Aside from the initial software cost, we pay for yearly maintenance. Maintaining our yearly maintenance licensing with Siemens, we receive access to all of the latest software releases, as well as premier technical support
Read full review Usability As previously mentioned, due to the intense amount of features and modules present in the software, the usability of the software suffers greatly. Many of the features are not used in our context, and many of the modules are not purchased, but the options are still present on the interface leading to a lot of clutter, much of which is never used. The interfaces suffer from a lack of design and tend to feel like a conglomerate of Windows 98 elements.

Read full review Teamcenter is a more robust and faster application, with better search capability and easier customization. There is a reason you find companies using CATIA as their CAD software with Teamcenter as their PLM application! I don't know anyone who can name a company using NX with
Enovia as their PLM!

Read full review Return on Investment GrabCad Workbench is the best in terms of integration with other CAD software like SolidWorks where live changes can be made to a product. GrabCad Workbench has a common parts library, which allows us to use repetitive parts without redesigning them again and again. Hence saving a lot of time. I can do all the conversations in the file itself, reducing time in email and other modes. It automatically generates BOM for my assembly files. It tracks versions, all the files are updated automatically for all members once a new version is created. It would be good if it can be updated to read drawing and sketch files. The team needs to improve the stability of the platform.
