SolidWorks Premium

Pros: Dedicato alla meccanica Facile da usare Buoni tools dedicati alla progettazione Buona la progettazione parametrica

Cons: Il sistema di vendita truffaldino Il servizio clienti La spocchia e il fatto che trattano i clienti dall'alto al basso Problemi di compatibilità con quasi tutti gli altri software installati sul pc

Pros: I was introduced to SolidWorks when I was a bachelor student. I learned a subject "Engineering design" in 2D. After a year, when I was introduced to SolidWorks, I was amazed with it. I learned it by myself, did projects as a student. And during my first job, I dealt with the designing. Since I got to use Premium version, I learned motion analysis. With this function I made my models and ideas a reality. We started using it to identify the mechanical movements and possible errors at an early phase.

Cons: The premium version is expensive for an individual or even for academics and small companies. Since it is not accessible to everyone, it takes time to learn the advanced features.

Pros: I like the ease of use and the intuitive feature set. It is a very user-friendly program and super easy to learn. It also has one of the most straightforward UIs of any CAD software. The learning curve for even advanced features is relatively small.

Cons: There are times when the entire program freezes. If you let it sit for a few minutes, it sorts itself out usually, but I wish it had some indicator that it is still functioning. In the task manager, it always shows up as "not responding". I also wish it did a little better job with importing and feature recognition. It will not import Creo files.

Pros: SolidWorks Premium is THE best software for creating manufacturing/process blue-prints efficiently and it is also a great tool to extract GD&T and PMI data from a 3D model.

Cons: I had to purchase Mastercam in addition to SolidWorks for CNC programming capabilities, I wish SolidWorks would implement CNC programming software, such as Mastercam, so it's an all-in-one package for creating blueprints and programming CNC vertical mills.

Pros: great software for creating 3d models, the animation feature of this makes it possible to find interferences before making the physical part

Cons: commands take a little getting used to as they are different from Autodesk software, which i was used to.

Pros: Best software overall in terms of balance between features, features quality, complexity of use, 3d and 1d interoperability and renders capability.

Cons: Sometimes got issue with motions video and also to download some parts from library, but overall always managed to get it fixed or find a turnaround.

Pros: Amazing and intuitive design software with an abundance of features that allows you to bring a design to life with ease!

Cons: Soildworks can sometimes be a bit buggy and things may not work exactly how you expect them to eveytime. Despite this, it's my go-to design software.

Pros: Perfect software to get started with 3D drawings and 3D model designing. Used it for a solid while in uni and now in everyday use.

Cons: Sometimes some of the functions that are needed is hidden. so need a bit of gogling around to find where it is.

Pros: Powerful design capabilities: Robust tools for 3D modeling, simulation, and rendering. Great for complex engineering designs, especially if you have the right computer specs. User-friendly interface: easy to pick up. Layout makes finding tools and features quick and easy. Solid integration: Works well enough with other CAD/CAM tools, so can drop into existing workflow without much disruption.

Cons: Expensive: The cost is simply very high compared to alternatives like Fusion 360. Recent changes to their subscription model make it feel even more expensive and less customer-friendly on price. Subscription model changes: switch in how they offer plans compared to a few years ago has made me rethink each year if we can stick with it for the long run, especially for smaller team/company. Learning curve: Interface is good, but still a learning curve to fully get the most out of all the features.

Pros: It is a useful software to design a concept, very easy to learn and increase our competences on it.

Cons: it is not the biggest software used in the entreprise. you need to adapt if you re working in interoperability.

Pros: All levels of simulations including mechanical, materials and performance.

Cons: The physical simulation part needs some improvement. Also it lacks AI upgrade.

Pros: The best thing i like about the software is its simplicity like even beginners can learn easily and a connection between sketch and drafting and finally its Tool box

Cons: The downside of this software is its sadddenly crashes sometimes ,so all the work we have done before crashing will be lost.

Pros: Dans cette version avancé de solidworks premium, les outils permettent de créer des géométries et des assemblages complexes avec une meilleure précision. La simulation de contraintes, CFD et la simulation des mouvement permet de tester les produits avant la fabrication. De plus, des outils permettent d'automatiser des tâches répétitives ce qui permet d'accélérer la conception et la productivité.

Cons: LA consommation de ressource pour faire fonctionner ce logiciel avancé est plus conséquence. Tout comme son apprentissage qui s'avère plus complexe et requiert une connaissance de la CAO.

Pros: It centralize a lot of tools for multiples tasks

Cons: The 3D experience is terrible i've paid like for 2 years it's plugging with solidworks it has 0 efficiency only cloud problems

Pros: Son atout principal est l'érgonomie et la facilité d'utilsation. J'utilise Catia V5 et parfois NX mais Solidworks reste le logiciel de CAO le plus intutif. La gamme de module est très compléte. Les outils de rendus réaliste sont parmis les meilleurs. Il existe également beaucoup de tutoriels et une grosse communauté derrière Solidworks.

Cons: Il plante assez régulièrement sur des gros assemblages

Pros: I like the features and the ability to navigate through all of the tree managers.

Cons: SOLIDWORKS has a learning curve and the features are not all intuitive but once you learn it is a very powerful tool.

Pros: Excellent logiciel de modélisation 2D/3D avec de superbes fonctionnalités

Cons: L'apprentissage est long, les tutos sont peu nombreux

Pros: Simplicité d'utilisation, c'est assez interactif

Cons: Interopérabilité des systèmes, lien avec un plm pas simple

Pros: Able to Navigate Large Assemblies smoothly and better

Cons: There is still lot of Lag using PDM within the Tab

Pros: SolidWorks let me translate my ideas into something other people can understand exactly how I do.

Cons: SolidWorks can be pricey, but in a business, it easily pays for itself.

Pros: its amazing architecture and incredible features like solid cam

Cons: Solidworks has low storage which limits designers from large data processing

Pros: Solidworks Premium is extremely intuitive and easy to use. It has a well thought out and premium looking UI, and complex parts can be modeled and drawn to a very high standard.

Cons: Solidworks Premium does require a moderate to high end system to run efficiently and with good user experience. The average laptop with 8-16GB RAM does underperform, and the experience is noticeably degraded when even a browser tab or text document was open, a task I feel it should not struggle with. For an assembly with only 350 components, I would expect less than 8GB of system RAM usage.
