Overall Satisfaction with Onshape
I use OnShape for rapid development of lab fixtures and enclosures for sensors and microcontrollers. We can go quickly from design to 3D printing using OnShape, thanks to extensive support for import and export of part files. We also take advantage of OnShape's collaboration features and parameterization.
- Collaboration: OnShape's versioning is sophisticated and powerful, yet easy to use.
- Browser-based: there's no client to install and thus minimum setup, and it even runs on fairly low-spec laptops
- Excellent UI: OnShape looks great! It's pleasing to the eye and has very clear layout of objects and tools.
- More native support for mechanical features like threads and gears (currently requires third-party plugins)
- Better support for applying surface textures and text
- Quality rendering of parts
- Faster development-to-fabrication cycle
- Better visibility of designs throughout organization. thanks to OnShape's iOS apps
- Low cost of ownership, thanks to minimal software management overhead
