## Reviews

### "User Experience" — 5.0/5

> **Nasir** | *3 December 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: When you have limited knowledge in 3D CAD and really want to design some products but not willing to share the concept over words but a 3D design ready. Then you really need Solidworks modules and specially Premiuem module which is the top end of CAD portfolio. With basic idea of 3D designing i could start exploring solidworks and build any concept and also do some basic simulation without any or limited knowledge in simulation concepts as the product comes with simulation features and requires minimal data to start a simulation
> 
> **Cons**: With all my time using solidworks i could never find any difficulty or fault other tan if any feature is missing or is in limited condition this when escalated would be looked in detail by design and development team and pulled in next possible updated to resolve and serve the need.
> 
> Loved working on solidworks as it declaration stands "Spend less time in learning and more time in developing a product"

### "work sequence  very easy and super clear, friendly interface, easy to learn" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *14 November 2022* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: all the features are very powerful, but i like the most 2 Modules: 1- Sheet metal  2- Animation
> 
> **Cons**: when i work with large assembly it sometimes stop working, maybe it's a hardware  problem, i'm not sure
> 
> productive, easy to build a complex models and assemble them very fast, also producing a 3D animation video for the presentation purpose

### "Industry standard software; headaches must also be industry standard" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *28 February 2021* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SolidWorks is a very powerful software for mechanical design. While FEA in Premium can be limited, it's very helpful for performing basic statics analysis of a component. If you take the time to set up component, weldment, fastener etc libraries and tweak several hidden settings, you can do a lot of complicated designs and large assemblies, then generate drawings and BOMs all in one software package.&#10;&#10;-Hole wizard and similar tools are extremely useful&#10;-FEA is helpful for validating designs&#10;-Reference and parameter-driven components (when they work) within assemblies allows flexible and complex designs&#10;-Convenient tools like sheet metal, weldments/structural members etc make industrial design easier
> 
> **Cons**: Unfortunately, SolidWorks' strength is also its weakness. Over the years it has become extremely bloated with features and truly needs to be rebuilt from the ground up. &#10;&#10;-Unstable. Crashes at least once a day unexpectedly and with little to no warning, with no hope of recovery, even on hardware built specifically for running SW. &#10;-Unreliable and finicky at times, settings/references/converted entities/mates are notorious for somehow spontaneously changing or breaking between sessions.&#10;-Solving mates, especially in large assemblies, can be extremely slow. Eg. adding and mating fasteners to an assembly with hundreds of parts is a nightmare. &#10;-Drawings are convoluted and performance hurts with large assemblies. Chock full of features but hard to use.&#10;-No great built-in way to create/export clean BOMs from assemblies without putting in a lot of work.&#10;-SINGLE CORE? IN 2021?? COME ON\! Not all operations have to be limited to one thread\!
> 
> SolidWorks can be both the solution to and cause of many problems in my day-to-day engineering work. If the developers spent more of the thousands and thousands of dollars charged annually per seat on fixing existing issues and improving stability, rather than cramming in new features, maybe this software would be worth hanging onto. We are looking at switching to CAD package built with modern needs in mind (eg Siemens NX). This is a great software to learn CAD basics with, however, in part because there are lots of guides and tutorials online due to its popularity. Currently, we couldn't live without it, but we sure wish we could and will be hopefully moving to a different software package in the near future.

### "Flexible CAD solution for average and most common 3D modeling." — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *15 February 2022* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SolidWorks is very easy to use among most of the CAD software solutions on market, also the import and export functions hold on most geometry pretty well.
> 
> **Cons**: For more complex surfaces operations, it comes short for solutions.
> 
> Is pretty handy if you will design fixtures or structures to manufacture them, also the way you can customize libraries for future assemblies is very useful.

### "Review after 10 years use of Solidworks" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *1 April 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its very user friendly software compare to other softwares. Its make job easy for designers and gives some in build libraries along with premium version which saves the time.
> 
> **Cons**: Solidworks is expensive than solidedge. Solidworks don't have accuracy compare to NX CAD or CATIA. Surfacing is not that much accurate in solidworks.
> 
> My overall 10+ years experience with solidworks is very fantastic. I learned solidworks in my college days and I am using in my professional carrier. It easy and very useful in product and machine design. It also comes with some analysis tools and add on packages which makes job easy.
