We use it to design our new products. We mainly use Sheet metal / Large assemblies and plastic part modeling
- Large community
- Program Stability (Very Unstable)
- User Interface is dated and impractical
- Every new version introduces many new bugs and makes the program even slower
- Insufficient official support despite the large cost of the program
- Very Slow
- Text Editor is dated and impractical
- Solidworks Corp does not support customers
- Made me lose interest in design engineering
I have previously worked with Autodesk Inventor for designing very complex door mechanisms and large assemblies of drilling machines. I did not face any stability or performance issues
- Online training
- in-person training
