I have been using NX for the past 2 years and have tested many of the modules in NX, along with it I have been working with 15+ organizations and faced 100s of technical issues in various modules of NX, and below are some of the best things that I found about it:
1) UI and User friendly:-
the UI of NX does stand for its name as it gives a complete feel of using updated and competent software and the user-friendliness is also recommendable as it allows lots of options for users to customize the software as per their need by allowing customize tabs, Shortcuts modifications and saving user preference roles.
2) Easy Customization:-
NX is one of the CAD software that can be easily customized in terms of programming that supports the inputs of almost all file formats like *.vb, *.jar, *.cs, *.py, *.dll and the list goes on. Also, it has inbuild options such as PTS, UDF, and Algorithmic modeling which enables the user to define their own set of commands.
3) Broad Nature:-
Siemens NX has lots of modules across a variety of domains such as Electrical and Mechanical Routing Piping, Reverse Engineering, Mold Wizard, Design Simulation and the list is sizeable which caters to almost every need of an organization so that you do not have to look for any other software in the market all you have to do is enable the license and start using it with the same friendly UI.
4) Constant Improvisations:
Siemens puts lots of effort into the R&D of the software and constantly keeps on updating the software based on customer feedback and IRs and ERs which can be raised by the service partner in order to get quick support from Siemens and if not immediately the problem can be resolved in upcoming releases.

As we all know everything has some downsides and here are a few as concerned with NX:-
1) Library updation:
The library updation for various modules can be really tricky and difficult at times which might hinder the usability of the particular module.
2) Working within Assembly file:
Sometimes it is difficult to work in assembly files while modifying the components and referencing some of their features.
3) Pricing:
The pricing of the modules of NX can be tricky and at times unfair but this can be avoided using token-based licensing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As an IT engineer, I have had the opportunity to work with this program many times and I have found it to be an extremely useful tool.
Its intuitive and powerful interface allows us to create any model or IT system that we need to visualize in detail before executing it, and all in a fast and accurate way, meeting the highest quality standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have not had any problems with NX CAD, my experience and that of my colleagues has been excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX CAD is a platform with all the functions that may be required to make designs with multiple details, provides accuracy, security and quality when starting to develop our projects.
In addition, thanks to the precision it provides to represent even the smallest detail, we can illustrate the idea of the final project to our customers and make any changes before starting work on the project that does not meet customer requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are many add-ons and extensions offered by NX CAD that only work if you use it with Windows system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX CAD is the design software that provides more ease and accuracy today, has two excellent functions that provide us with too many benefits for our company (Design function and 3D priting function).
The 3D printing function of NX CAD offers a powerful combination of design tools that maximize the quality and accuracy of the prints, allows us to create advanced designs with tools that even allows the generation of scripts and automatic positioning of parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the 3D printing time can be a slow process and takes even days to complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX CAD is a highly versatile design program, it has allowed us to carry out complex projects in an easier way, and its interface is intuitive, so it always adapts to our needs.
In addition, the constant innovation and development of new tools and functions by NX CAD developers keep us up to date with the latest technological trends in the field of architecture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Most of our employees need training to learn how to use NX CAD, so it is necessary to have some time before using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX CAD is a very useful tool for our company, with the technical documentation that it generates automatically gives us the necessary information to build, operate and maintain our projects, this includes plans, drawings, schematics, data sheets, installation and operating instructions, all this information is essential for us because it ensures that the product is built and works properly.

NX CAD has a maximum file size limit for design files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX CAD is a robust and powerful tool with the ability to produce highly accurate and detailed 3D rendered designs. I have used this tool for planning, design and visualization of company projects.
In addition, the platform is also super effective for working together with other team members by allowing file sharing with both them and the clients to ensure a satisfactory work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can be a problem to integrate NX CAD with some operating systems, it is better to work on Windows only. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This tool allows us to create our working systems in 3D, so we create our detailed designs, including the layout of equipment and piping, this facilitates the planning and forecasting of problems.
In addition, NX CAD allows multiple users to work on the same project in real time, which facilitates coomunication between team members and speeds up the time it takes to complete projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This software requires a significant investment to acquire its license. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX software integration is the key factor for this software, saving a lot of time to do the same task on multiple platforms to get one model done. This makes work easier and saves time. Their high-quality rendering product provides excellent presentation. The availability of tools according to project requirements helps to work quickly and deliver the expected result with less effort. This platform provides good collaboration, helping me keep the client updated without extra effort and ensuring smooth coordination within the team.
There isn’t enough training material available, which made it hard for me to learn the platform in the beginning. However, their customer support system is quite good and helped me a lot in that phase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There’s nothing major to dislike about the NX platform, but it is quite expensive, and I think they could improve the UI. Also, there isn’t enough training material available, which made it difficult for me to learn the platform in the beginning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX CAD has completely changed my design experience. I like how its interface is so intuitive to get around complicated projects. Seamless data management is essential for collaboration, so the integration with software such as Teamcenter is achieved. Its advanced features of simulation and parametric modeling save you tons of time and allows us to validate the designs before moving to the production. The outcome of this has been much more accurate and much more efficient for our project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing I wish was different with NX CAD is that it has a pretty long learning curve especially for greenhorn engineers. It can initially be quite an avalanche of information to process hence making the onboarding of new team members a difficult task. Further, the software may consume a lot of space on the pc and hence slow computers hinder productivity. I have also learnt to deal with odd bugs that require fixing and this is especially worse when the time is tight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX CAD's 3D modeling capabilities are accurate, allowing us to create our wireless antenna designs, making our work more efficient and effective.
In addition, it has a wonderful radiation analysis function that allows us to predict the direction and radiation pattern of the signal that our antennas will emit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Requires a lot of storage space to save the projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
