I am looking to acquire a CAD program for all of our design work. I am familiar with Solidworks and would consider myself a fan.

 

I am wondering what others are using and why?

 

I like the ease of use with the SW product and flexibility. Cost is some what of a drivers I don't need a 20k design seat.

 

Thoughts?

I use Solidworks for all of my design work.

 

Rev changes can "mostly" be handled pretty easily, of course design intent and how it was modeled can make this task easy or harder.

 

UG, while very powerful can be quite cumbersome to learn and use.

Thanks guys for the info.

 

The guys from Solidedge did a Demo, but their "Synchronus Technology" is nothing but a sales gimmick. Any real designs needing adjustments just won't work in the way they think. Too much else can and is affected.

 

 

Looking at the flash and dash of a couple of other systems, it seems to me that SW is the way to go.
