SolidWorks Simulation Reviews & Product Details

SOLIDWORKS simulation easily integrates into your design projects as a plugin to SOLIDWORKS. It allows you to easily run FEA (stress test, strain test, torsion, etc,) on your parts while drafting them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does not come free with SOLIDWORKS basic or professional license. It is an important tool for CAD and users would benefit from access with all licenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The way things can be modeled and Simulated. Very user friendliness, navigation across tabs is very easy and also it's very easy to options under multiple tabs unlike other apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used this software for almost more than a year. And I haven't found much to my dislike. Nothing much to complain about. All I found is it's usefullness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simulation is easy-to-use, powerful, and accurate enough for daily work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a limited element library and known issues with solving highly non-linear contact situations. (but it is improving) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do use Solidworks simulation almost twice in a week and what I like, it easy to use and give accurate results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes meshing gives unexpected errors and it is hard to solve them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

user friendly, better options than other CAD software, easy to learn and teach others Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

price is higher than other softwares, only one machine can be run with one license (so remote working is painful) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is more user-friendly and has good yearly updates, easy to assign the FEA boundary conditions, Good Pre & Post-process also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Have to work on Mesh controls and types of Elements, Contacts between Solid and shell & Weld elements , Solid and Weld element results don't come together Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Solidworks simulation works great because it has wide range of materials plus we can create. Also there are different profiles which help a lot Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Difference in accuracy +- 3% which is ok for users like bcz we consider fos, but still solidworks can improve Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Solidwork Simulation is easy to use and has good features for CAE simulation. It gives approx. accurate results Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When it comes to complex simulation, it is hard to use. It gives errors which hard to understand Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

easy to use software with nice UI and affordable licenses Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

simulation capability is limited as compared to other softwares like abaqus/ansys Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The bestpart is applying bounadary condition in statisimaultion and results are quick in the same environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Large multidomain simulation is not possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
