PTC Creo is a versatile CAD software that is widely used by engineering departments in various industries. Users have reported using PTC Creo for a wide range of purposes, including modeling and drawing products, designing manufacturing machine layouts, and creating 2D drawings. With its parametric software nature, PTC Creo offers flexibility in creating part models, allowing users to easily design both simple and complex mechanical engineering products.

One of the key advantages of PTC Creo is its ability to handle large assembly files with 1000+ parts smoothly, making it ideal for projects that involve complex geometries. Clients who use PTC Creo are often described as forward-thinking and creative, utilizing the software as a productivity tool rather than just a CAD system. In addition to its industrial applications, PTC Creo is also used in educational settings to teach engineering and CAD skills to students, helping them create prototypes and gain hands-on experience in STEM fields. Overall, PTC Creo has proven to be a valuable tool for product design and development, reducing lead time in development projects and enabling efficient collaboration through integration with PLM software.

We use it to help students create prototypes and teach engineering and CAD skills in STEM.
  • Modeling.
  • Ability to make templates.
  • Rendering sometimes crashes.
  • Putting in backgrounds is difficult sometimes.
I know that it was great for us with our 3D printers and modeling. We made classroom prototypes with students but also used it to make classroom materials, solve problems in our organization, create images/models, etc. I also know many engineers who use this software. Overall we were able to tailor it to our 4th-6th grade students but would be great if there were some modifications that we could make for students.
  • Ability to be innovative and cutting edge in technology.
  • Teach 3D modeling and CAD concepts to kids.
We were required by DoD to use this software, but we also like it because it is professional. Many people in the field use it and want kids to be familiar with professional software vs. things like TinkerCAD even though it is a good resource. We also had PC computers and worked well/were comparable with those.
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.
