I am able to create complex models for manufacture in a short amount of time. I can design simple parts and machine them in a matter of minutes. I can also quickly iterate and create visual renderings to share with clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECRAS requires internet and is expensive. Many things can be done with HEC RAS that can be done in GeoHECRAS they just require more "leg work" with other programs. I have had issues with connectivity which stops me from properly saving projects. These are minor issues but issues non the less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use GeoHECRAS to determine the the water surface elevation below the low chord of small utility bridges installed by our client. We also use it to calculate flow through culvert crossings and some drain drainage design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recently they offer a anual subscription that seem to me more expensive, that could not be accesible for beginners who wants to use it on DIY projects like 3D printing or modeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unfortunately this CAD software is less popular in industry. If you are looking to market your CAD skills many employers have never even heard of Inventor. However, many of the skills you can learn through practicing with Inventor can easily translate to other CAD software. This program also allows you to turn your 3D CAD design into a drawing file comparable to solidworks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I highly recommend this software if you are a student or beginner looking to get into CAD. This is a super affordable software that includes all the basics you need for projects or drawings. Very comparable to much more expensive software. Lots of package options for both students, home users, and professionals. I really enjoyed using this program and have found it to be incredibly useful. They are always updating their software and are constantly improving their interface and options. While Inventor may not be as popular as other CAD software, it certainly is not obsolete and it is easy to find literature and how-to information online that will help guide you through. Inventor supports engineering analysis, work instruction , accurate BOM information, and improved submittal information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As mentioned previously, Inventor is great for educational purposes. It is a budget friendly option and if you are a college student you can get a version of the software for free. This is great for home users designing things to be printed on a 3D printer or if you are looking to quickly mock something up. I've used this for several projects in which I can model my diy project prior to building. This can be super handy for making blueprints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AutoCad LT does not handle the creation and storage of "Blocks" in a way that is compatible with our document management system. This is a major pain in the backside since a lot of the designs I create use the same basic elements in each drawing. Being able to create a library of Blocks and track them thru our document management system would be a major time saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AutoCad LT is an excellent tool if you don't need 3-D modeling - it more than adequately meets the needs of users whose drawings only need to be two dimensional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We need to create a number of simple drawings to document the systems we use at our technical operations center. The people who create these documents range from highly skilled systems engineers to maintenance technicians. AutoCad LT presents a feature set that covers our needs without requiring extensive training on features we don't use. This has helped motivate people to create the documentation we need.

This helped me. I have no reasons to dislike the software, probably not now neither would it be ever. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You too should switch to this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to use, the software supports more formats, and CAD drawings look more convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You cannot easily draw curves or work with curves as demanded by transportation design. Car designs are extremely difficult with this. Not impossible but too strenous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The SolidWorks forums are really helpful for somebody who doesn't know how to get help. SolidWorks help locally may only be available in the local language and won't necessarily always be available in English unless it is the local language of the country. For Example, I subscribed to the Portuguese newsletter while I prefer to work in English, there was no option around this. Just a point to note if you are an expatriate in another country.

Also, it is important to be on the latest solidworks version if you plan on exchanging SLDPART files or else be prepared to use STEP or Parasolid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am solving structural chassis related problems. The benefits are I can see if the beams in floating house would present any challenges before the actual product is constructed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't really have a lot of complaints about Civil 3D or using it. I enjoyed using it and would like to do so again in the future. It was a lot to learn but, I like to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I used it in doing land comparisons of land fills, bridge design, grading of a site that was being filled in and grading and re-design of the land roads of a construction site as the job was being done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am not overly familiar with BricsCAD, however, some of the tings I dislike is that you can't print off/export more than one drawing at a time. It makes moving the drawings more tedious. Also, it can be hard to recenter on a certain area of the sheets, and usually can only be fixed by scrolling extremely out and in. Not exactly a time saver. The program also seems sort of out dated by the looks of it, but it may be less resolution and user friendly to save on the memory it takes up on a computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When the Drawings come to me they are already completed usually, but they are easier to edit than in other programs we use. Since the drawings are a grouping of lines instead of a connected shape and parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since it has many tool it will require some time to master all its tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes exporting as a 2D drawing can be time consuming Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would highly recommend users to start using Rhinoceros. It is a 3D program that allows you to create fast and accurate 3D models. For our discipline (urban design) it works great. I enjoy working with Rhinoceros because it allows to organise the file very well with all the layers options. In terms of support there are many tutorial videos available and also user guides that explain all the functions in detail and therefore there are not any commands that are not easy to understand. I like the fact that you can have floating licenses, for example in our office we have a few licenses and we create and team and can share the purchased licenses. This offers flexibility to the team and is a plus when working in a team with multiple people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am an urban designer and I am using Rhinoceros mainly for volumetric models. I use it to make and volumetric studies of urban plans. I import 2D base drawings from Autocad and then using extruding commands create the 3D model. I calculate the total volume with Rhino, continue building the model and finally exporting the end product. I return to 2D drawing as Autocad or Illustrator or I use Lumion for making renders. I am very satisfied with Rhinoceros as a 3D modelling program. It is accurate in designing, works great with other programs eg Autocad and it has a friendly user interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Table is not user friendly like as familiar CAD software. Looking same but not satisfied. I expect should be like as familiar CAD software. if possible.

In over all Tamil Nadu Corporation Building Plan Approval Authority using private supporting program based on familiar CAD software. While they are using ActCAD, getting Table error problem.

All own Lisp program could not use directly from familiar CAD software, we have to revise something for ActCAD (Actually this is not a problem) and also LSP file compiling is not available like as .FAS, .VLX

FIELD - some of the field category is not working and also can't edit or modify from familiar CAD software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a professional Civil Engineer my over all review result is EXCELLENT. I can strongly recommend to all (2D & 3D) CAD users.

I realize good software with best market price and who ever using non genuine software can shift here genuine licensed version with ActCAD India Product License certificate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DDLModes (Layer dialog box) suddenly dis appear, I don't know what happened. ActCAD supporting team well responded immediately. I appreciate them.

Benefits mean, I realize good software with best market price and who ever using non genuine software can shift here genuine licensed version with ActCAD India Product License certificate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not as good at working with surfaces or editing complex curved faces. This is where having a second CAD package available can be helpful if it works in a different way. For example, my company uses ANSYS Spaceclaim, which works well with surfaces but does not have the same overall capabilities as SOLIDWORKS, so the two work together pretty well.
