It is great software if your design is simple, for complex designing you have to invest more time in it to become an expert.

I can model parts and do an assembly in the same work space and that is a very nice and effective way of doing stuff. This is a very good software fore beginners to work with.

Sometimes Fusion can behave strangely but Autodesk launches updates basically every week to fix problem or to add new features.

Excellent and life-changing. I can finally work on my ideas with extreme ease, and immediate results.

Sometimes it slows down or chrashes when working on heavy files or gives login problems once in a while.

I have been able to model and adjust many functional parts. I am pleased with how this software flows in a way that more intuitive to me than other software I have used.

As in you don't have to wait for the release sometime next year and hope for the best.

Coding itself is bad and people with coding background including myself thinks that this one software is built upon 2 different programming languages that contradict each other.

Understanding the timeline functionality can be difficult in the beginning.

There is also an active community that is great at answering questions, and a lot of YouTube tutorials put out by Autodesk and others that fully explore Fusion 360's functionality.

The cost , the features and the intuitiveness makes Fusion 360 a great 3d visualization tool. It is perfect for work and for all the 3d hobby enthusiasts.

This CAD package is very good for light use and user friendly for education.

I've used Fusion 360 for approximately 6 years and I've loved it. It's intuitive and easy to use, but powerful too.

Fusion 360 is a very good tool to get 3d models done, the interface is easy to understand and straight forward, and you get great value for what the software costs.

One of the things I love most about Fusion 360 is the seamless integration of various design tools, such as 3D modeling, 2D drawing, and simulation.

I loved the learning curve, from the beginning is clear how to create even relatively complex models. Also the sketch feature is awesome.

Overall what i enjoyed the most was version control feature and the electronic design feature integrated into the software.

Great if your design is more simple, or if you are an expert in this specific software, and you want to collaborate live with a team on a design.

Its great Modelling and simulation software for rapid prototyping and iterative projects.

Fusion is a little confusing and needs earlier experience on any 3d modelling or cad software in order to use this.

Fusion 360 had been really easy to learn and easy to use. The ability to have updated geometry transfer to existing geometries is super helpful.

I couldn't be more thrilled with it. Being an SME, it is offered on an annual basis free of charge.

Customer service is fantastic and very prompt. They do a very good job of making sure that you are integrating to exactly your needs.

Its a great software for rapid prototyping and product development. Being a cloud based software is the most extreme advantage.

3D modeling in Fusion 360 is a wonderful experience as I have designed products ranging from medical equipment to automotive technology to household tools and even industrial machine parts with ease.

Overall, it is worth the price of admission and is a great package to have with features that far out weigh the competition.

The main advantage versus his main competitor (Sketchup) are the fabrication functions. For a maker with an interest in CNC and/or 3D printing, it can be the perfect software.

The integration and interface make for a good user experience that is flexible enough to meet most users' needs.

It is a great interface for time tracking, generating part specific costs and reports.

The product is very user friendly and powerful. The APS is a great tool for scheduling.

You can’t move it, either because it’s not the active window. The cut/paste form fill interface is very difficult to decipher and almost impossible to use if you don't have an insert button.

The flexibility to mold it to our specific needs in our plant processes makes my job easier and the company more efficient. The people in Global Shop are so willing to help, they are wonderful.

Also, the support team is absolutely wonderful to deal with and very helpful anytime I have questions on how to better our system.

It's flexible software with continuous upgrades, and they have responsive employees. It's a good, solid company with good values.

The one thing that annoys me the most is limited number of characters that can be used when making a new item number in inventory.

This is an issue for those clocking in and out. Errors messages are a problem.

It is such a great added benefit and has been useful many times when I want to learn different modules and functions.

Supply and Demand with Edit is great. Makes navigation painless and easy as far as the manufacturing side.

It's a great idea, but the user interface is cumbersome to use and less intuitive than a bag of bricks.

Overwriting is GSS’s default action and there is no control-z function to correct any mistake, should you happen to overwrite what was in the field.

My favorite feature is the option to build fully customized modules ourselves and even have the ability to download custom modules made for other customers.

The GS team is great to work with and solves my questions in a very short time. They are a great team to work with.

Their customer support team is also wonderful to deal with and very helpful.

HR management system of Global Shop Solution. Reporting of GSS is well defined.

Most all of the program. If you have a problem in one module, it can affect all the others and make your life miserable.

This product it’s great it helped my company to have a better control of our inventory. Keeping track of it was a lot more work.

The support staff is very friendly and always willing to do what it takes to resolve an issue or point you in the right direction to a new feature/function you may need.

This software allows for company growth. It's a fully integrated solution that is extremely reliable.

What I dislike about this software is the learning required upfront to navigate through this ERP package.

Global Shop has given our company a wonderful infrastructure for cost evaluation and reporting. It is also wonderful at time tracking for employee time on machines, jobs, or process.

The support team is wonderful, I would highly recommend this product.

At first, I'm slightly confused in some features but I figure it out when I watched the tutorials.

It's been great to see all the new features and modern enhancements they have been putting in recently. It does an excellent job tracking our manufacturing costs and getting things scheduled on-time.

It is also excellent at helping identify costing issues and looking at where improvements can be made organization-wide.

The GS system was very helpful in terms of production planning, inventory, capacity and monitoring of the items, status and finished date.

GSS is a complete system with great integration between, manufacturing, accounting, quality and engineering all with great customer support and always with an eye on the future.
