Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • The product offers features for editing 2D geometry and annotating architectural drawings. I also love how you can attach and import PDf files.
  • This was a great lower cost solution for getting into CAD. The cost is more than what we wanted to spend, but pricing is competitive.
  • Cons

  • Sometimes the program may crash or shut down unexpectedly. If the autosave feature is not enabled this can lead to a huge loss in work.
  • Some 3d elements and quick short cuts are not available but it really doesn't effect our daily work flow.

  • Pros

  • The thing I really liked about this product has been the simplicity of use. I mostly used it for displacement and stress analysis on complete assemblies.
  • The product had a very powerful and effective simulation package which, once the UI is updated, will be a very useful overall package rivaling any analysis software that exists.
  • Cons

  • It sometimes feels its hard to ascertain how the mathematical calculation variables are affecting the final result.
  • Missing components and functions cannot be modeled in SimSolid.
