"Review on a solidworks composer."
What do you like best about SolidWorks Composer?

SolidWorks Writer empowers clients to make reasonable 3D perceptions of item plans. It considers simple control of the model, adding or eliminating parts, invigorating congregations, and applying different camera points to exhibit the item or make sense of intricate cycles actually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Composer?

Execution with Huge Congregations: SolidWorks Arranger might encounter execution issues while working with extremely enormous gatherings or complex 3D models. Delivering and controlling such models can be asset serious and may bring about more slow execution or framework slack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AWESOME FOR WRITING TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION"
What do you like best about SolidWorks Composer?

It has very good features that you can't do in the regular solidworks motion studies. Also a big plus is that it makes it much easier to animate large assemblies as it's not doing all the calculations that regular SW has to do. Highly recommend for marketing animations, 3d assembly instruction for techs that use tablets or computers instead of paper drawings, and for creating manuals or customer instructions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Composer?

Until now, I have liked composer without any hassle. If I face any difficulty or any issue with composer, I will come back again to write about it. But nothing for now. It has been a great experience with composer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ideal for quick technical animations and illustrations"
What do you like best about SolidWorks Composer?

Automatic import of custom properties defined in CAD data reduces manual work a lot. The interface is fairly easy to learn and it's the easiest software for generating technical documentation. Animations are decent considering the capabilities of the software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Composer?

It's not included with any of the SW package and has to be purchased separately. Furthermore, it'd be great if renders are similar in quality to SW PhotoView360 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Systematic and Creative 2D and 3D Computer Aided Designing Software"
What do you like best about SolidWorks Composer?

SolidWorks can import CAD files from various sources like CATIA, ENGINEER, and NX so that you can efficiently work with this file instead of making a new one. It has a creative interface that makes users work with it very smoothly and efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Composer?

Solidworks files may not be opened or compatible with other CAD software, leading to difficulty in working with different designers or manufacturers. It requires additional cost for upgrade, which is quite disappointing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Use SolidWorks Composer for creating visually appealing and interactive media"
What do you like best about SolidWorks Composer?

SolidWorks Composer excels at leveraging existing CAD data to create dynamic media. Users can easily manipulate 3D models, add annotations, labels, and exploded views to highlight components or mechanisms. The software's animation capabilities enable the creation of step-by-step instructions, assembly sequences, and exploded views, greatly enhancing the clarity and effectiveness of technical documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SolidWorks Composer?

SolidWorks Composer needs improved rendering capabilities; while generally good, it could be further enhanced to provide more advanced visual effects and realistic representations. Additionally, it seems slow, especially when handling larger assemblies with complex animations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
