Solid Edge

Solid Edge was excellent at sheetmetal and fabrication design as well as having a good Teamcenter integration

Better usage, especially when using NX as CAM software as well.

FreeCAD is often better than Solid Edge 2021 when converting files, but I hope this changes with 2023 NX is overall more powerful, but that is to be expected (and you cant add it above because it is too short for whatever reason).

First, we were using AutoCAD in our industry then we switched it to Solid edge. AutoCAD isn't well suited for 3D drawing and it takes very much time to make 3D in AutoCAD. In Solid Edge, you can create 3D drawings and convert them into 2D instantly without much effort. You can also make any changes in parts directly which is not that much easy in AutoCAD. AutoCAD in well suite for plant layout and 2D drawings. You can not create features like holes and threads in AutoCAD which w used most. There are not many annotations available for easy use in AutoCAD.

What makes Solid Edge better than any other of the previously mentioned software is the Synchronous technology feature. This is the ability to integrate 2D and 3D sketching. Without planning ahead you can start modeling from a simple sketch. This makes this software a better choice because it means you can directly edit the geometries from your 3D models.

Solid Edge is an old technology of design. It is a pioneer of designing features.

SOLIDWORKS has a really intuitive interface for a traditional CAD package. It is easy to use, easy to learn and is perfectly suited for any user. Solid Edge lacks this ease of use.

Autodesk Inventor is great for personal use as well as in small businesses. It is easy to learn, produces great models quickly and is very reasonably priced.

My personal favourite, Onshape has redefined what CAD is meant to be, as well as the way in which it is meant to be used. It is highly functional, intuitive, and changes the way in which CAD is perceived by the user. It is much more interactive than traditional CAD packages.

I would say it is on par with DraftSight, and better and worse than TurboCAD in performance.

I have used several programs to model but the one that I liked the most is Solid Edge. With this program you can do anything you need, you can also make assemblies very easily and make plans. Something that it does not have in comparison to others are the commands, if it had those that would make the modeling process even easier.

It's actually simple Solid Works wins the popularity contest, AutoCad has so many years of user base
Solid Edge wins the functionality portion of any comparison ($ to performance) to any product. eventually, companies realize this after the barrage of marketing. As the owner of the Parasolid Kernel, Edge thus is obviously the market survivor.

Solid Edge and SOLIDWORKS can be very similar in the resulting output of parts, assemblies, and drawings.
The difference lies in what goes into getting those results. SOLIDWORKS is held back by slower editing as the parts gain more and more features, and becomes dangerous when there's a hidden domino effect. SOLIDWORKS can often require more time and effort to get it done right. To ensure the changes you make only affect the desired features, Solid Edge is the better solution.

I've used both SOLIDWORKS and Solid Edge. I prefer Solid Edge over SOLIDWORKS due to the ease of use. They are pretty similar, but the performance is the same as long as you have a good workstation. The price is less since Siemens owns the Parasolid kernel. It may just be a preference, but Solid Edge works great for me.

Synchronous technology stands above the rest by a large margin. Having the ability to perform direct or parametric modeling in the same application is a huge benefit.
