## Reviews

### "Inventor for Millwork and Tradeshow Documents" — 5.0/5

> **Steve** | *24 October 2018* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Inventor is very easy to use to create realistic, solid designs for cabinetry and millwork. I have tailored the software to streamline my creation of repetitive tasks, and it allows me to effectively document my designs quickly and easily. The software allows you to design and see where problems are in real time. My absolute favorite thing is that the drawings created, are always 100% exactly what you've modeled. It is impossible to have a view that does not dimensionally match another view. My experience with CAD systems in the past, is when drawings get revised, if not checked carefully, views can get out of sync with each other and when something is manufactured, the fabricator undoubtedly will ALWAYS pick the incorrect view as the one to follow. Inventor completely eliminates this problem. Last but not least, is that after being an Engineer / Drafter / Project Manager for almost 30 years, learning and using inventor has made designing and drafting fun for me again.
> 
> **Cons**: If there's anything I dislike, is that the software could be more cabinet and millwork friendly without having to purchase an add-on. The drawing sizes and model file sizes can get very large, in some cases I have drawings over 200mb, which can be painfully slow when loading over a network
> 
> Inventor is a great tool and easy to learn and be productive with. It is not a direct solution for any specific trade other than Sheet Metal, but can be tailored to fit.

### "It is a 3D solid parametric modeling program produced by the software company Autodesk" — 4.0/5

> **Mariana** | *10 July 2018* | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It has many tools that are very useful not only in the mechanical area, but also in the design of circuits, in the design of pipelines, etc., that's why I like SW. However, what I like about inventor is that besides being a program where you can make designs (CAD), you can also manufacture them (CAM) and do not need an interface like solidworks to recognize it in a cnc.&#10;Moldflow analysis: because it shows the quality of the pieces during the preliminary design phases and avoids the problems of higher level.&#10;Family mold: this allows the administration of family molds. You can alternate between several charged plastic parts to complete the partition plane design of each core and cavity assembly.&#10;Feed channel and injection point: provides the means to specify the type and location of the injection points, and allows to define the characteristics of shape, size and sketch of the feed channel.&#10;Cooling channel: improves the efficiency of the mold design and simplifies the process of creating complex cooling channels.&#10;Core and cavity design: solves the complex problems of defining the partition plane. The combination of these functions allows the closing of the separation, in addition to the automatic creation of revisions of holes and partition surfaces.&#10;Standard component library and tools: supports a wide range of components from commercial catalog libraries and a component utility to create custom parts.&#10;Automation of the drawing: the automation of the 2D drawing
> 
> **Cons**: Java does not generate code for further deeper developments.&#10;It does not handle much flexibility like code does in Java&#10;It only works with an Internet connection and it is a great disadvantage when you signal it is bad at home or work&#10;It can only be developed for Android&#10;The program has a high cost, due to its license.&#10;Knowing how to fully use the software requires a lot of time since there are many functions, and even that they are of little application, since they are very specific.&#10;It requires a powerful computer to work with processing speed, and a high space on the hard drive
> 
> In my case being a professional of iNGENIERIA IS OF GREAT BENEFIT BECAUSE Inventor is updated (with the help of users in Inventor Ideas) and improves with each new version&#13;&#10;It keeps the user competitive by accessing our latest innovations at the time they are available, along with the&#13;&#10;previous versions you need&#13;&#10;Configure your products more easily with new functions for assemblies and autocomplete in the rules editor. Work with data from any 3D CAD system while maintaining an associative link

### "Inventor Review" — 3.0/5

> **MICHAEL** | *7 June 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nice environment with good feature definition
> 
> **Cons**: bad preview of operations in 3d space, some previews that didnt allow execution
> 
> pretty good but like solidworks and nx better

### "Inventor 2018 Experience" — 4.0/5

> **James** | *24 October 2018* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is easy to use and flows fairly well.  The real beauty, especially from a hiring standpoint, is that it works very similar to competition so if you know one package you can quickly pick up on this one.  the other thing I really like is the Vault that is included.  The ability to work locally, but keep everything stored on a server, makes working with larger models much faster.  It also allows a team to work together while keeping files safes and tracking revisions and changes.
> 
> **Cons**: Ever since the first time I used the software my main criticism has always been the inability to select a midpoint of a sketch.  This drives me mad and many of us have found complex workarounds to what should be a simple problem.  I will also say that setting up mates in an assembly is not always that intuitive.  It's great to have many different options but when %100 of the time I only use this specific one it would be great if it would learn that, or allow me to change the default.
> 
> Overall it's been a positive experience.  I will admit I came to Inventor late having stared with competitor products nearly 15 years ago but once you learn the syntax of how the everything is set up it is a smooth transition.

### "Inventor review by a mechanical cad designer" — 4.0/5

> **Renato** | *21 December 2022* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Almost all mechanisms i desingned i used Inventor as a tool, no other software is more useful for mechanisms than inventor, its motion simulation is great, so if you need to make a four-bar linkage for instance you can see all design parameter been shown to you as you put the measures
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing i don't like about inventor is its render system, for rendering in the company i used to work we used other cad systems to make final render
> 
> Using Inventor for desingning machines with complex mechanisms in it is great,in my opinion is the best out in the marketing, its render system is not too good, but besides that everything is great and also there is a big community of Inventor users, so if you need help in something it's very easy to find
