  • Reviewers appreciate the intuitive interface, cloud collaboration features, and the ability to design, model, and simulate in one place, which is beneficial for both beginners and professionals.
  • Users experienced performance instability with larger assemblies or high-resolution simulations, limited offline use, and some advanced features locked behind additional subscriptions, which can be limiting for freelancers or small teams.
