Question on: Designcenter Solid Edge
[Is Solid Edge good?](/discussions/is-solid-edge-good)

Is Solid Edge good?

Very Good

Answered: Yogesh Daddikar on December 6, 2022

Yeah, overall it’s a solid tool, especially if you’re doing 3D design and assemblies. It’s pretty reliable, handles complex models well, and the parametric features make edits much easier. It might take a bit of time to get used to, but once you’re comfortable with it, it really helps speed up your workflow.
