Pros / Cons
- What I really love about CATIA is its ability to handle complex three-dimensional models and seamlessly manage the entire design process from conceptualization to manufacturing.
- Heavy and slow software sometimes, the interface isn't friendly and out of date if we compare to others softwares.

- The best thing in solid edge is it's Synchronous Mode Means it combines the parametric and direct modelling.
- The local distributor said that they cannot give us a copy of Solide Edge ST8 for which we have a license, and we have to buy the latest version.
