What do you like best about Cimatron?

It is the perfect program for 3D modeling. The use of tools is very advanced but it is manageable to use and all its functions are perfectly designed to help you with your 3D modeling. I like that Cimatron is not that expensive, and that you could buy it without hurting your budget if you wanted too. Cimatron makes doing 3D modeling a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cimatron?

First-time users may have difficulties adapting to Cimatron, so I think working on having a tutorial to help the first-time users would be great, because if you are not already using programs for making 3D models then Cimatron will be very hard on you. Cimatron is not a very known program, and it is a program that requires knowledge in the area of ​​3D modeling. So please as I stated, work on making a tutorial guide for the first-time users, because I know how hard it can be if you don't know what you really are doing when working with 3D modeling programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cimatron:

Okay, so before you use Cimatron, you should know that it is mainly for the area use of 3D modeling. So it is necessary to have knowledge about 3D modeling programs and how to work with Cimatron before you use this program. It is fairly inexpensive, and you can buy it without hurting your budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cimatron solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am not really solving problems with Cimatron because I don't use it a whole lot, nor do I really need to use it, but it is a great program. The benefits for Cimatron are really great. You can do all things that you need to with CImatron that involve 3D modeling. The reason I do not really need it is because I am more of a blogger, and I love helping people find new programs, so I find and use new programs to me and tell peoplle about it in my blogs.
