Driveworks Pro is actually having the capabilities which can change the complete business strategies of any manufacturing companies. I used the Driveworks Pro for one of my customers to do the automate process from Product Designing to Manufacturing according to different manufacturing sites and operations. It helps the companies to spent more time in Research and Development instead of doing regular operation also help to increase productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Every software need time to mature. So there is no dislikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
You can control complete assembly for a model that contains a lot of variants with only one 3d models and a lot of background rules typed in DriveWorks.
You can generate each variant you need any time after you set your model with the rules.
Your end result can be with few clicks to have the wanted model and the needed drawings for production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are some bugs with the balloons for the drawings. Using the settings in DriveWorks will not give you accurate results for complicated drawings.
You should dig deeper to make it possible, I have my own way :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. Easy and best to use Design Automation software.
2. Reduces the repetitive tasks.
3. Faster and better performance with SolidWorks
It can do much more by creating configurations for each parts, drawings and assemblies very fast.
DriveWorks will benefit large industry sectors for automate their design process.And also easy to learn for all beginners. Also DriveWorks has provided different packages which suits for their industries. It can be easily integrated with SolidWorks. It delivers customer product faster and with greater accuracy. DriveWorks solo is very similar to Design table which is already their in SolidWorks platform.
Top features of DriveWorks are
1. Automatically controls the dimensions, features,custom properties and switch configurations.
2. Design easy to use input forms that limit inputs.
3. Automatically generates all parts and models
4. Generates product drawings
5. Reduces the repetitive engineering tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No dislikes about this software. I will happily recommend this to every designers. I am happy to use this software which makes my work easier and faster with greater accuracy. And also it consumes very less time compare to manual designing of the parts again. Cost wise it seems to be Okay compare to other Automation softwares. DriveWorks single license can be used by one person at a time. It would be better if it had floating license so that more than one people can make use of that. DriveWorks does not support for iPad or cannot be installed in Mac. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
firstly, it is a fully automatic tool which reduces our time taking jobs and the repetitive tasks, in this which we can build libraries either overnight and overtime. Moreover, it Identifies system and pricing models that may be incorrect.
Secondly, the automated form creation is what I liked the most in Driveworks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a limitation here we can configure and automate similar designs only. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It works similar to design tables in SolidWorks, but it can do much more and can create new parts and assemblies in seconds or minutes once all is set. It's also nice how all of it can be controlled by a simple user friendly form. The form on DriveWorks is connected and synced to a SolidWorks part models and Assembly models through formulas on a master model. Instead of creating a configuration as a design table would do, DriveWorks will pull numbers and create new models and assemblies to avoid large file sizes and complications obtained with design tables and configurations that can cause problems in a PDM system.

This software might benefit some companies more than others pending on what they manufacture, and it does take time to create a form for it's function. The time is also well made up for once it is working and much faster than a person creating new parts and assemblies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really like the way Driveworks synchronize the data. The GUI is quite simple.
I like the way all the sensor works in sync and the storage utilization is in detail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DriveWorks will always run a program the same way everytime reducing the human error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Troubleshooting your code can be tricky since the syntax is similar to Excel but a little different. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One of the best thing in Drive Works is easy to identify part details and customer requirements and getting exact details for parts and all such type of stuff Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Every software comes with initial level bugs but it is acceptable for that time only but in future it can be resolved and I believe that drive works can fix their bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Best thing is that you can give permission to customer to choose product as per their specification on your website. It is great tool to increase sales. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
downside as I experienced is that you need to add mates for assemblies, if you part have incontext part then it became venerable little bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
