Creo is a powerful 3D modeling platform that is easy to use and provides many helpful features. It is perfect for creating complex objects, and I find the Parametric feature to be particularly useful for creating detailed models. Additionally, the Creo Illustrate app gives users the ability to create dynamic product illustrations with ease. All in all, my experience with Creo has been very positive; it works well and looks great!

The thing that I liked most about Creo is how powerful it is. It's packed with tons of features that make it easy to create complex 3D models. I also really like the user-friendly interface, which makes it easy to navigate and quickly find what you need. And the fact that Creo Illustrate can be used for technical illustrations is great - it allows me to create beautiful visuals with ease. Finally, Creo Parametric has some great automation tools, which help save time when designing complex parts.

One of the downsides to Creo is that its features may be too robust and complicated for beginners to use. It has a steep learning curve and can be difficult to master all the tools it offers. As such, it might not be the best choice for those just starting out in 3D modeling.

It handles data management well with the windchill. Overall satisfactory but for the cost I expect more value in terms of features.

2D drawing and 3D parametric modelling is very good. Straight-forward modelling and surfacing. Also simulation is easy to use.

But lacks in flexibility. Need more ease of use in modelling. As a designer creo limits my imagination to create something para-metrically.

I have to listen to calming music so that i do not break any of my hardware while using CREO 4.0

There are some minor features that are convenient that other softwares should adopt - such as copy text formatting by selecting the text you want to copy the format of.

I've been using some form of Creo in multiple Jobs for 10+ years, and the only thing that it is able to do consistently is confuse and annoy me. Oh, you didn't know that you had to push that super secret button to get that feature to show? too bad. Sometimes i think it would be easier to create drawings by taking screenshots from creo with the snipping tool and pasting them into powerpoint. every single time it tries to assume something for you, it does it wrong. Why would I ever assemble objects by selecting surfaces that are NORMAL to each-other?!

CREO is easy to use, friendly for beginners and the scalability of the software is very high and definitely worth for money. Not a great tool for advanced designers as lack of integration to platforms like Eagle elctric design, ROS robotics etc.

Advanced Assembly extension in CREO parametric is simple great for top down design approach, surface modelling, sheetmetal modelling, concurrent data sharing between various created components by the key integrator and great assembly configuration

CREO rendering is way inferior with regards to its competitions like CATIA or Solidworks. CREI render studio isn't powerful, renders aren't close and products are a lot grainy.

Creo is one of the best known CAD softwares, used by a lot of OEM, it offers a wide range of features for modeling 3D parts, for people with knowledge in this software it got a simple interface

For someone starting on 3D modeling they will need some training to have a proper feeling on what the software can do, sometimes the software crashes and we lose hours of work.

My college uses Creo to teach us CAD. Since then I have worked with other CAD softwares and I have to say Creo was the most powerful of them all. It offers great range of tools to make your designs look amazing and the render option beats it all. It offer much more than any CAD software including assemblies, drawing files but most importantly NC manufacture and mold and cavity manufacture. You can generate CL files for 4th and 5th axis milling.

It takes a while to explore all the best options to optimize your drawings and it's ot easy to use at first. The default template is always imperial and requires changing to metric.

Working on Creo as sheetmetal designer.

3d framework is the best part. Sheetmetal, parts, assembly , drafting have different modules. And can work parallely.

Nothing to dislike other than cost. Cost of Creo must be cheaper.

I used Creo for 2D and 3D modeling and simulation for product manufacturing

I enjoy how simple it is and how components can be drawn using equations. It also features a pretty realistic simulation of mechanics.

To obtain the best experience from the new Creo versions, high machine specs are required.

Creo is comparatively cheaper than autocad, it brings overall the same features as autocad has. A lot of features are available to fine tune your model.

As it is not that widely used so investing time in it rather than in AutoCAD might not be that beneficial in terms of job prospects.

I have done programming and automation work through this software for interactive development in the classroom.

The generation of an MCAD file which allows generating a sequence of steps that can be programmed for the simulation of the mechanical design made, in addition to its incursion in the electrical design.

That the electric design tool is not very developed, it should be interactive like the mechanics module, it should also offer different packages with different costs that adapt to the budgets of different users.

Our previous tool had terrible large assembly performance and barely adequate analysis tools. Using files and folder data management lead to several data loss situations and having to restore data from backups. It was nearly impossible to enforce design standards and the overall experience was leading to extended design lead times. Using Creo and PDM link has lead to a nearly 100% (yes, double) productivity improvement in the engineering department.

A very powerful CAD tool with excellent large assembly and analysis tools. Use Creo when you need to get the job done, instead of fighting your underpowered CAD tool. Also use if you need to maintain company standards in both design and documentation.

With power comes complexity. Creo can be very difficult to set up well for a new company implementing it for the first time. It also has a much steeper learning curve than typical mid range packages such as Solidworks or Inventor, although still far easier than Catia or NX.

Overall, it is a great professional tool and is probably best used in the industry rather than in educational settings (at least at the elementary/middle school level). While it is great exposure for students to be using professional software, it has a larger learning curve for both teachers and students than other more kid-friendly CAD software out there and it is more expensive than other options available. It is better and easier to print from and has many more functionalities. It just needs to be simplified and streamlined to be successful in the classroom.

I like that it is high quality, professional, and has a large variety of tools needed to create 3D prototypes. It is often used in the CAD industry so it is great exposure for our students. It worked really well with our 3D printers and printed out great, high-quality prototypes. Our students enjoyed using it.

One con is that it is not compatible with MAC computers, must have a PC. It must be downloaded and has licenses that need to be purchased whereas TinkerCAD is free online and does not need to be downloaded onto the computer. In addition, if you want younger students or beginners to use this, a lot of accommodations and simplifications need to be made. We had to spend a long time customizing the toolbar to be more accessible and kid-friendly. We had to do a lot more instruction to help students be successful. There are also no built-in trainings or tutorials that are student-friendly like TinkerCAD.

Iam a mechanical engineering student and a PTC certified CREO user I have learned this software and got a certificate from PTC CREO after passing their examination. So I normally use this software for my college works making CAD drawings for my projects, works, seminars etc. It's easy for me to use it as iam qualified. I would recommend this software to other professionals out there and to the beginners under one condition that they should learn it from a certified place and then they use it, which would really help them enjoy this software instead of getting confused or telling that this software is tough and it's crap.

The main advantages are: 1. It's easy to work with. 2. There a lot of options for our views to accomplish 3. A complete product can be build assembled and put to test in the software itself before making the prototype with the appropriate factors given as input. 4. It's been used by a lot of companies like KTM Duke was entirely built in this software so learning this software helps you out in different ways 5. Even some extent of analysis can be done also in the software itself 6. It's a powerful software well built with less bugs and hence I grand never come across crashing of this software no matter how much inputs use give. 7. For professionals it's a best choice.

The main disadvantages are: 1. It doesn't work on low end systems it becomes slow as it requires minimum 4gb graphics for the program to run smoothly without much load. 2. It's tough to learn you might need a proper guidance to learn it and once you learn it, then you would rule it. 3. It's a bit costly but if you running a company then it's good but not good to buy for personnel use 4. Surely not meant for beginners it's a software that's a high performance one and so it's tough 5. Sometimes the options would get you confused as you work on because there's that much options present. 6. Try to keep in touch atleast once in a month with the software or you might end in forgetting hope to use this software or make sure that you got a book written how to use this software on your own.

I am verifying my part without physically making it. I made the cad and then simulate it.

Command control panel with command name is easy to access.

Sometime fatal error can make you angry.

We had to have a dedicated team jus for CREO to allow the rest to concentrate on Product support and projects only.

Found it to be intuitive at the beginning,

Creating sketches was hard to master even when training was provided, difficult to finalize complex sketches with little tools to find fixes. Somehow the Engineering IT was unable to sync with PLM softwares for some time. Extensive training was required to bring onboard new hires.

Overall, I find the Creo software easy to use and very helpful in my graphic design work. I would recommend it to others.

The advantage of Creo software is that it is very easy to use and learn with powerful 3D modeling capabilities. It is flexible and customizable. There is a comprehensive library of parts and assemblies. Apart from that it could simulate and analyze the design in addition to the design process automatically. It also could collaborate with other users.

The downside of Creo Software is the expensive licensing fee. Limited support for non-Windows operating systems, non-CAD file formats, non-Creo software, non-English languages and for non-professional users.

Plenty functions and easy to work with others, but hard to learn the software interface and hard to use it for curvature surfaces.

It integrates with WindChill database and it is easy to control the drawing versions with co-workers.

It is hard to use initially but get used to it after some time. It is also hard to use the interface for curvature surface.

Good for handling large models and maintaining them Its parametric so 3D models and 2d drawings are associated , you can change either to make modification Sketching, detailing is friendly including propping

Creo sometime gives fatal error which completely shuts the software down and have to restart that is annoying Cabling module is not that user friendly so can be cumbersome Sweep / swept blend sometime fails which is fine but more accurate error messages can help Extend to next feature was there in earlier version which was good but its not anymore in newer versions

Creo is better as compare to other base level software having advance features for surfacing but user base is less and online help files are also less

Complex part modeling is easy with creo. Nice surfacing tool

Complex to use. Not so user friendly. User base is also less

I have been using this software for a long time. It is splendid software indeed. When we are working on CAD work, it is very easy to navigate. One of the most beautiful feature of this software is assembling parts together. We can share 3D models, view drawings and make notes through this software very speedily.

The only limitation of this software is that it's layout seems to be quite difficult but once we have command on this software then we get familiar with it and it is easy to understand the concept. As it is versatile so it takes some time to learn as compare to other CAD software. It only needs practice to have good command on it. It's learning curve is quite steeper.

You can load any assembly in a very short time

Variant management can be more accessable

I have used Creo in business because a project had designed on this. Very bad program. So not satisfied.

I cannot find a likeable feature for this program. Maybe the drawing section can be considered as good but that's all.

It is very hard to use, not user friendly, not enables to work parametric, even the easiest commands are hard to implement.

This product has helped me create several fixtures for our company.

This software is very easy to use. Prior to using this software I had only used AutoCAD 3ds. This was a breeze to learn and quickly was able to transition to this software. The ability to then create a print directly from the model makes this a winner for me.

There are. A few limitations on features. My main issue was not being able to create a helical extrusion. But I was able to work around it by lofting.

Great software and highly recommended. I use it for various modelling purposes and have enjoyed using this product

The ease with which can i create CAD models and use them for analysis. I've used creo for cleaning up geometry as well and its useful

The fact that its a paid software and the student version which is free doesn't come with a lot of features and hence isn't useful
