Creo Elements/Direct Modeling Reviews & Product Details

It's direct nodellingfeatures which gives user advantage of designing any product on very shorter time period considering overall design cycle; by which any designer can effectively save time by designing on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Any designer has do design as per manufacturing compatibility of the product but creo elements let desiner make geometries rather than making it by extraction/extruded and feature command, by this at times product may face issues as far as DFM is considered.

The creo elements is best solid modelling software for designing parts and assemblies in 2d and 3d. The design can be done with high precision. The part or assembly design can be analysed for thermal, stress and fatigue capabilities is the best feature to avoid failures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No issues are faced during our use. Everything works properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I made best out of creo in Additive manufacturing and simulation extension, I'm currently using the simulation aspects to run simulations before sending to manufacturing unit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find 3D modeling bit more challenging and complicated to do in here. It do have the extension of generative shape design but still the story is no different Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a very simple user friendly UI easy to understand and use. Its direct editing and interchangeability to work on models created in different tools is a one of the best highlight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It needs more development to make process faster. Third party format change takes a long time. Also need more advance feature to use to create models quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This tool allows us CAD users to design almost anything that comes to mind. Any basic tool shape is very easy to create once there is a clear understanding of the different actions and commands available within the PTC Creo menus. I have been using Creo for the past few years in CAD, from variable shapes of nanoparticles to basic parts for building an engine. Very easy to use and an incredibly useful tool overall.

Practically nothing. It is good for beginners and those who are working on developing concepts, but it cannot be used full-time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I believe it is a very robust software with great capabilities. If you are a design developer, it is one of the best tools you can use. Without a doubt, the best part is that it is completely free. The basic modeling commands (extrusion, revolution, etc.) are very intuitive and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me, it's difficult to say what I like least about this program... perhaps it would be that if you want to learn to use it fully, the learning curve it presents is difficult (especially if what you want to do involves surface modeling) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Included data analytics and animation software allow you to analyze the real-world physics and impact of your modeled object

In-depth and detailed interface

High quality surfacing and radii creation softwares

Flexible, easy to use layering capabilities

The clean colors and customizable Wireframe view make it great for complex assemblies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Failure mode has trouble handling large assemblies

The user interface can be challenging to learn, especially for people with limited previous 3D modeling experience

Some users find that development changes to the software make it more difficult to learn Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Creo Elements is an excellent tool for 3D solid modeling. In addition to being software that can be downloaded for free, it is very versatile and useful for designing something quickly and simply. It allows you to create and modify design data in real time. Its functions are very interactive and useful, helping the designer to perform certain techniques, such as copy and paste, drag and drop, or push and pull. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a program somewhat different from all the products on the market also dedicated to 3D product design. Learning to use it may take some time; you will simply need an initial class to get acquainted with the program and a lot of enthusiasm and effort, because if you don't put in the effort, you won't be able to learn anything new.

It has a lot of functionality. It can quickly make an engineering drawing, to a given specifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not many people outside of the Engineering world use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cross-format compatibility is the best feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The usage made processor feel a little lethargic and slow. However, it might have to do with my hardware more than the software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
