I like how Designcenter brings different engineering and design capabilities together in a connected environment. The integration between CAD, simulation, electrical, and product development workflows helps teams collaborate more effectively and reduces the need to move data between disconnected tools Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The breadth of the platform can make it difficult for new users to understand all the available capabilities. Some advanced workflows also have a learning curve, and effective implementation may require training and configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Designcenter to be a great tool for design and simulation, especially enjoying its use in modal and response analysis. The UI is really convenient to use, with all options being handy and easy to find. I appreciate the hex dominant function for meshing as a great feature. Additionally, I found the initial setup to be quite easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't assign material in a group of parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Designcenter NX for designing industrial machinery, and I'm really impressed with its programming API. The API is the best part because it allows me to write custom programs on top of NX, automate routine design tasks, and ultimately save time and costs for my clients. Setting up and installing Designcenter NX is pretty straightforward as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Python documentation for NX API is poor or non-existent. This needs a lot of improvement. The API documentation using Python needs use case programs, sample code, and a detailed document on how to integrate Python code into NX and build end-user automation apps for NX.

I use Designcenter for modeling our products. It gives me advanced modeling features, helps me manage big assemblies and relations, and does accurate mass calculations. What I like most is that the interface does not change too much between releases, plus they have frequent releases. The stable interface means less onboarding and it's easier to find features. The frequent updates give us new and advanced features every 6 months. The initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The performance on big assemblies could be better with less GPU resources. Opening, rebuilding, and rendering are the operations most affected, and these slowdowns impact our time to delivery and user satisfaction. I'd like to see maybe a more modern GPU architecture to handle bigger assemblies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Designcenter NX allows us to create fully detailed models for design and manufacturing. I really appreciate its integration with many other systems including Manufacturing, PLM, FEA, PD, and Test, which means we can start tool paths and fixtures before the design is complete.

Stability and performance issues with Designcenter NX are a bit frustrating. Models can take over an hour to update, and many blends that should work end up failing. Also, the initial setup could have been better if we had more standards set up before starting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Designcenter offers more modules to leverage, providing comprehensive solutions for all phases such as modeling, analysis, and costing. This capability helps me develop products faster, especially when using it alongside NX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think there needs to be an improvement in the integration with Teamcenter. Also, civil building tasks didn't develop as fast as desired, which led our team to switch from Designcenter to Revit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It very user friendly, the UI looks pretty cool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing really. Whatever Siemens introduces, they nail it. Nothing different in this case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Designing the product in the easiest way, with the latest functionalities like Immersive, helps me realize the designs instantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They way the Token licenses are bundled, there are features like VSA supposed to be there with design but those are listed under Manufacturing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the ease of use with Designcenter, which makes it straightforward to navigate. Additionally, the initial setup was quite easy, making it convenient to get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the AI integration in Designcenter to be lacking. I use Copilot for routine stuff, but I want it to handle more engineering tasks. It would be great if the AI could take on more complex drafting work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the user interface of Designcenter NX, especially the icon shapes, their location, and organization. The ability to change the user interface and where the icons can be located is great. I also appreciate the simplicity of learning new modules within the software and the precision of the CAD modeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Definitely the Sheet Metal application feels limited in the functions it does, especially for aerospace products. I would like to have reuse libraries integrated into the Sheet Metal application. The function of the three bend corner is very limited; it should work better for angles different than 90 degrees or complex angle intersections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
