It's a seemless transition from AUTODESK and they have very good pricing as I do not need all the rubbish autodesk bundle with the software. The straight purchase option is perfect as I do not like subscription models at all and have changed a lot of my company stuff to other vendors because of this.

Also listed in Additive Manufacturing, Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM), Simulation & CAE, General-Purpose CAD

One of the aspects I appreciate the most about Designcenter Solid Edge is its intuitive approach to mechanical design and drafting. The software provides a solid set of tools for creating precise 3D models and detailed technical drawings while keeping the workflow relatively straightforward compared to other CAD platforms.
I particularly value the synchronous technology, which allows quick modifications without having to rebuild the entire model history. This flexibility is extremely useful when working on engineering projects where design changes are frequent.
Another positive point is the integration between 3D modeling and 2D drafting, making it efficient to generate manufacturing drawings directly from the models. Overall, it is a reliable CAD solution for mechanical engineers and designers who need accurate and efficient design workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lots of features. Most of these do in turn have a sharp learning curve, however once they are mastered it makes designing a board very streamlined. For example, when working with a schematic and creating a PCB, being able to highlight specific groups of components and then locate them on the PCB is huge timesaver and helps with board layout.

My favorite thing about Procreate is how easy it is to use and how seamlessly it fits into my creative workflow. I can rely on it for quick sketches as well as high-quality finished pieces, and I end up using Procreate at some point in every project. It’s also been consistently reliable for me. I’ve never run into any software issues that even required reaching out to their support team. Overall, it’s a great tool, and I’d recommend it to any artist.

I like that Autodesk Fusion is very easy to use, especially for an automation engineer. It's comparable to SolidWorks, allowing easy addition of camshaft parameters and other measurements. I find it straightforward to put measurements for 3D modeling and writing, or to change materials. It works fine even with a four-core CPU, which is something I think is missing in other software. I also appreciate how Autodesk Fusion is a complete package containing everything needed, including technical, documentation, and 3D CAD. It's really amazing and more structured than Salesforce.

I find SOLIDWORKS to be the industry standard for parametric 3D modeling because of its user-friendly interface. It's mostly used by engineers and designers in different sectors. I like that SOLIDWORKS keeps getting faster and more automated without losing the logical, user-friendly feel. The AI-powered drawing feature is what I like most because it saves time with automatic dimensions and views. The ease of setup was also very impressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I started using Coohom recently for interior design work, and my first impression was that the interface felt a little different compared to other tools I’ve used. It took me some time to understand the layout and features properly. In the beginning, I had to explore a bit before getting comfortable with the workflow. After spending some time on it, I began to appreciate the platform more. The 3D visuals and rendering quality are quite impressive, especially for client presentations. The designs look realistic and help explain concepts clearly, which is important in interior projects. Once I understood how things are organized, the process became smoother. It definitely requires a little patience at the start, but the final output makes it worthwhile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the different color options in Sketchbook as they make me more expressive with my art and help bring my artwork to life. It's also great that I can use it across my mobile devices because a lot of other software doesn't allow me to be as creative. Plus, setting it up was very easy for me since I just had to download the app, and being familiar with it made navigating around it simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
