Overall Satisfaction with DriveWorks

DriveWorks helps us in our Advanced Business Design classes in the university where I work. DriveWorks allows students' interactive activities under the teaching team's help. DriveWorks helps our students configure easily and fastly new and innovative customs products. In
particular, we use the free version of the software (una tantum payment). This software is also very
useful in the mobile and tablet versions. Our students can interact even
outside of class hours, thanks to this fundamental feature.
  • DriveWorks allows configuring custom products in a concise time thanks to its automation features.
  • The mobile and tablet versions allow us to increase our students' interaction.
  • The graphical interface is straightforward to understand. This allows you to speed up the steps in the different phases of use of the software.
  • In some cases, the exchange of documentation between different users is not so automatic. Some operations still have to be done manually.
  • All the variables and design parameters introduced by the user are not always visible and can be analyzed simultaneously. Sometimes changing the parameters related to the characteristics of the products is not so easy.
  • DriveWorks allows access to a limited number of users at the same time. This issue sometimes makes the use of the software difficult for many of our students.
  • DriveWorks helped us simulate configuring custom products in our Advanced Business classes, even if it is not educational software.
  • DriveWorks has a friendly interface for mobile devices and tablets.
  • This software allows a direct and easy-to-use platform to configure custom products for the end-user.
  • DriveWorks helped us to increase the efficiency of our work thanks to the possibility to work remotely.
  • The easy-to-understand graphical interface has allowed us to increase the interaction between our students.
  • The impossibility of having many active users during the same session forced us to work at different times with multiple workgroups.
DriveWorks is the first software to configure custom products that I use. So I cannot make comparisons with other software right now. However, the difficulties encountered in allowing a large number of users to log in simultaneously will prompt me to look for another similar software. However, the features that enable the user to calculate the prices and costs of a product quickly, design the product in 2D and 3D, and manage e-commerce modes are factors that would push me to keep using DriveWorks.

Do you think DriveWorks delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with DriveWorks's feature set?

Yes

Did DriveWorks live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of DriveWorks go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy DriveWorks again?

Yes

I would recommend DriveWorks to a college if they have similar needs to those I am personally experiencing at my university. Above all, I would not recommend it if the user needs to allow simultaneous access to a very high number of users (as is my case) since the software does not give this possibility. On the contrary, I would recommend it if a colleague needs to use software that works in the background and generates stand-alone models and prints for time reasons.
