JUST HAD A DEMONSTRATION OF SOLIDWORKS AND WE WERE ALL BLOWN AWAY! ANYTHING I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT S/W BEFORE PULLING THE TRIGGER ON 20THOU WORTH OF LICENSES? TRAINING NECESSARY? CAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE THE HELP MENUS ARE ON STEROIDS…
THANKS!
I use SW about 5 hours a day. Brilliant, IMO. Training will always help.
it’s a very deep and intelligent program. training will help a lot otherwise you will end up using it improperly.
there are good tutorials, but i consider myself a power user and still haven’t grasped a lot of the advanced assemblies and relations stuff.
i think it’s the best cad package. it can really do everything!
training is vitail while you goo off track creating ‘bad’ cad…and no one wants that. Prob good to agree some ground rules of modeling stratgies so you all contstruct in a similar way.
Great choice though SW is the don…(says a frustrated Pro/e user)
