Great design capabilities with SolidWorks

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates SOLIDWORKS from other similar products?

We made designs of any type of component quickly, and we did not have to pay for the training, because the information we needed to learn how to use it is on YouTube. Other similar software is difficult to learn, but SolidWorks is relatively easier than the others.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I can design new ideas with SolidWorks, the functions are simple, the user interface is dynamic, I can do 2D and 3D designs with great ease and make parts that will be used and know if it will work by simulation.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It is a software with a long history, so any errors that may have had previously were corrected, currently I do not see any faults.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

You can use it quickly because it is not difficult to learn, it also has a free version.
