Straightforward assembly structure with possibility to edit parts in the context of an assembly
Part families that can be edited with excel
user expressions
Coupling with PLCsim advanced is very easy
A lot of preprogrammed MCD functions (conveyor, linear actuator, kinematic chain)
It is easy to start making simulations with MCD Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
embarrasing performance of the physics engine (MCD): even small amounts of collision bodies cause the time scale to drop below one. Additionally, the simulation is often unphysical with objects randomly flying away.
the lack of a search function in the keyboard shortcut menu
high price compared to similar software and even then a lot of basic functions are still behind a paywall
Documentation/manual not always existing or clear for all functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
NX is easily integrated with Teamcenter which ensures collaboration and efficient data management, i like its advanced modeling capabilities. it also has simulation capabilities. Better user community and support avilable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The CAM features are relatively on higher cost, User Interface is less Intuitive, Integration with other PLM is not easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Once you get past the complicated parts of NX, you'll see how useful it is and discover possibilities you hadn't considered. It's like a magic tool for engineers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing about NX that annoys me more than a minute. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One of the best and must use CAD software for mechanical engineers. It's parametric and direct modelling provides precision in design modification and geometry. It has a user-friendly interface, beginners can learn it very easily and fast. Files are compatible with various other software which enhances progress in collaborative projects.

Cost of software, need a very good PC for optimal use, too many commands can be overwhelming for new user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Good UI and too many options for one single feature.
One of the best softwares for surface modeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Doesn't have a good sketch environment especially the sketch constraints Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to adapt and learn. It is open to use customised programs that makes the daly work easy for the end user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
To fire the system up could be quicker teamcenter managed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

NX Cad is extremely powerful for designing many different products. The tools and applications it offers make the process very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The sheer amount of options it has can be overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Time Saving Tools through robust synchronous modeling and unified part/drawing files allow complex designs to be made. Scalable to teams by allowing teams to make modifications to the 3D model without understanding design tree or even on dumb solid models (parasolids/STP). Search Bar allows for easy to find commands. Tight integration with Teamcenter PDM and PLM system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Additional Features require several modules to enable. Features are difficult to self-discover. Proficiency is gained through training, word of mouth, or focused learning time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
