"Powerful but challenging"
What do you like best about OpenSCAD?

OpenScad is a very powerful software, but unfortunately its level of complexity requires too much knowledge. It is not a program that I like to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSCAD?

As I mentioned earlier, it is necessary to learn how to use it; a user with little programming knowledge can find it very difficult to learn how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Looks old, works great!"
What do you like best about OpenSCAD?

I can modify and customize files easily, I can send customers files to personalize without them knowing lots about modelling. The custom menus are great for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSCAD?

The interface looks old, could use a little more design. It's a little hard at first but works great so I cant complain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Usable by novie and expert"
What do you like best about OpenSCAD?

Has a huge number of plugins that can allow you to do many advanced things. You can take input from things like Excel and PDFs and turn them into models. It can also be useful for just visualizing some models you're checking out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSCAD?

Learning curve isn't trivial. Trying to find the right plugins can be daunting given the number available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"If you like coding and want to do some 3D printing, this one is for you"
What do you like best about OpenSCAD?

I like the fact that we can preview the structure as we write the codes. Also, the building process is very intuitive if you like math/programming. This is great for building repetitive structures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSCAD?

I wish the preview screen can be made much better Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best product I’ve ever used"
What do you like best about OpenSCAD?

I like how simple and easy it is to use and navigate this program no stuttering or stopping while using it everything is fluent and easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSCAD?

One downside I’ve noticed about the program is that it crashes sometimes while I’m using it losing my work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"That's a powerful tool (speaking as an user)"
What do you like best about OpenSCAD?

That's a powerful tool. I've got a model from someone and could change some input parameters and model adjusted itself based on my needs. I could then export the STL file and use it to print my model. That's really a strong point of the OpenSCAD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSCAD?

Nothing, apart from its complexity. But that's expected from such a powerful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Well, and Well, free and compatible"
What do you like best about OpenSCAD?

Powerful interface with very simple code for what you do. 3D interface is super intuitive and very powerful. I have not used it for that, but it must be super powerful for Animation Film modeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenSCAD?

Maybe it is wrong to use the PC's memory without control. Using it recklessly for what you are doing... That must be corrected because it is a serious error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
