Greatest option for 3D and 2D modeling
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates SOLIDWORKS from other similar products?
Solidworks is useful for creating the most complex 3D and 2D models; one of its distinctive features is that it simplifies the modeling of even the most sophisticated sections. I appreciate it because I had better-equipped myself with the most advanced CAD and only the essentials. It is extensively adopted throughout our entire business for computer-aided design and manufacturing modeling.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Is it not surprising Solidworks is the most commonly used modern 3D CAD application. But the aspects that make it a user's favorite application are that it has an ever-expanding collection of features that are motivated by user feedback. Stimulation of designs is also possible to ensure success. To make models more advanced and better it utilizes integrated CAM to create toolpaths. For sheet metal, machining, polishing, and other tasks, it offers plenty of efficient and advanced tools.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The harshest aspect is that the threading parameter is not good since SOLIDWORKS attaches a lower thread to any sort of pit inside, altering it. It freezes occasionally while creating a hole or slots at a massive scale, and occasionally at minor commands, too. Sometimes it fails to locate the solid object and displays surfaces rather.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
To create a further outstanding, high-quality product, deliver it to the marketplace, and satisfy customer requests, engineers and designers want the greatest tools and solutions. To help you there and to equip you better SOLIDWORKS provides a wide range of powerful and durable CAD tools to assist you in modeling 3D and 2D models.

What differentiates SOLIDWORKS from other similar products?
One of the most pleasurable software i have worked on for designing. As a mechanical engineer, I have worked with different modeling softwares. This one is quite intuitive and hence saves a lot of time. Implements real world physics and logic.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The drawings are so explanatory and easy to understand that I had a great time explaining in my final project. Doesn't require much thinking to understand. Hence a non technical person is also able to easily grasp the concepts.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Had some difficulty in learning simulation and assembly portion of modeling. So it would be great if some training material is provided by the company.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Will always be my first choice if I;m given an array of different modeling software. For complex and higher industry level application, a bit patience is required and you might experience some less degree of freedom. But for moderately complex products, this is a great option to go for.
Pros
- Unique Features
- Respectful
- Fair
