See who else is on-board with NX and for what reasons. Some companies I have worked at would have regular Design Team meetings where we would discuss tips and tricks and general procedures so everyone used the same techniques and could understand each other's Parts Assemblies. See if you can get a few Engineers from your team together to pick through what requirements you have for a new system and thoughts any of you would have on switching and how much experience people have with each system. I wonder what the butter churn Add-in costs for installation. The decision may also be affected with companies you do businesses and the systems they use. I've also heard nightmare stories about the people selling PTC's products.
Often the People making the decision do not know the correct relevant questions to ask and can most times be fooled by the Marketing Rhetoric. The only problem I had with it were most of the Parametric capabilities like Wave Linking are normally disabled by the options files as installed.Ī.) You are correct in saying Pro/E is a high end system.ī.) ProE has a good Cable Routing option and handles large data sets well but your company should look into trying out the same example Assembly file in each and doing a comparison and rating importance of various capabilities.Īsk to meet with the Sales and Technical contact handling the Sales Pitch and have them do an onsite demo and show the capabilities for a specific. You should be excited about using NX as it is very powerful and easy to use learn. Catia Implements poorly tested functionality while SolidWorks disables it and Pro/E hides it in config/system settings.
Pro/E is very stable for the most part, I've used Catia v5 for a while but the major gripe I have is that it's poorly written and makes many simple tasks complex. I am a long time Pro/E user for 14 years and it is a truly great system but most new users hate it because of ease of use is lower than most other systems. All the systems basically have or can have the same capabilities the main 2 differences being cost and usability.
