3DEXPERIENCE CATIA Pros and Cons

It integrates the companies bom with designing platform unlike old catia where catia V5 is a separate application and team center was a separate application and had to wait for few minutes to get them interlinked when loading a file form plm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When a measurement is made the value doesn't stay back. It gets removed as soon as I close the measure tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As students and Car team member in our college we are working in different departments. Spatially I am working in component designing.

1. CATIA Having very good graphical interface that I can used to very quickly.

2. It's helps me to creating 3D models for my vehicle components.

3.then I can also able to do strees and impact analysis on this designs with in same software.

4. After that I am able to make a assembly of all components with frame and anylised whole unit.

So it's very good experience which supports students like us to get hands-on what actually designing is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Software demands resources which is not fullfill by every desktop/laptop.

Utilisation of system resources is high. If we doesn't having good resources then it may work slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3DEXPERIENCE CATIA the software I use for designing parts in our off-road car racing team, is fantastic for several reasons:

1. It helps us create really detailed 3D models of the parts we need for our off-road buggies. Think of it as drawing in 3D.

2. If we want to change the size or shape of a part, CATIA makes it easy, and it automatically updates everything related to that change.

3. It's great for putting all our parts together and seeing how they fit and work in the whole vehicle. Imagine building a puzzle – CATIA helps us make sure all the pieces fit.

4. CATIA also allows us to simulate and test how our buggies will perform in different situations, like off-road terrains, which is super important.

5. We can work on our designs together in real-time because CATIA has cool collaboration and cloud features.

6. CATIA isn't just for one thing; it helps us with all kinds of vehicle engineering tasks, from the chassis to the suspension and more.

We can check if our parts are strong enough to handle the rough conditions of off-road racing, making our vehicles safer and more reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So, as a student, there are a few things about CATIA that can be a bit of a hassle:

1. It's kinda like learning a new language. When you first start using CATIA, it can feel really overwhelming. There are so many buttons and tools to figure out, which can slow you down at the beginning.

2. You need a pretty beefy computer to run CATIA smoothly. If your computer isn't up to the task, it can be frustrating because the software might lag or crash.

3. Money matters, right? CATIA isn't exactly cheap. For students or small teams like ours, the cost of getting the software can be a bit of a shock.

4. Sometimes, CATIA can be a bit moody. It has its moments where it doesn't work as expected, and that can be annoying when you're in the middle of a project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a student and member of car racing team CATIA provide us a platform to build Chasis of vehicle and do the Analysis of our design.

1. The user interface of CATIA is very easy to understand and we used to get it within short period.

2.We are able to build a frame and apply specific material which we choosen for our design and successfully completed analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CATIA demands high resource availability for smooth working. It consumes high resources from my system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of things that I like about 3DExperience catia is that it is suitable for complex product designs.and it has top notch rendering capabilities.In my opinion best for CAE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Interface is little bit difficult to understand.for me took lot of time to get used to it.shown little bit of glittering and lagging on my pc(intel i5 10th gen 16 gb ram). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a very convenient and industrial oriented software. The layout is very simple and user friendly which allows you to improve your efficiency while designing.

The tools available in the software are really useful for rapid prototyping due to accesibility of it.

The individual part integration is also very easy and precise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Few processes like measuring and other are not very straight forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a student and car team members we are using Catia to build and design vehicle components.

1.user interface of very easy to understand and able to used to with it.

2. Easy to design and test our models for defferent condition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. It may not suitable for any system, it demands high resourses like ram, cpu etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Part modelling and surface modelling which is very easier than any other software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Assembly features need to be improved there should more easier options to assemble parts in the assembly environment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to design complex products like impellers, turbine blades, van blades, and any irregular shape can be made easily by using this 3D modeling Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial stage to set up project or simulate is tame taking process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface allows my team to review the design challenges and gives us a better communication platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is good. It would be better if they gave free trial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
