Price is a bit crippling\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *2 April 2026* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Simulation for FEA is invaluable for analyzing the strength of assemblies. Solidworks express gets left in the dust when you can analyze entire assemblies > > **Cons**: This is a very expensive add on. Our company has only 1-2 licenses with this premium feature because of the costs > > This is a very intuitive software that allows for suppressing components within the assembly FEA that you want to exclude from analysis, change remote loadings, and much more\! ----- ### "Great software, but price is a tough pill to swallow" — 3.0/5 > **Chris** | *28 May 2025* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Powerful design capabilities: Robust tools for 3D modeling, simulation, and rendering. Great for complex engineering designs, especially if you have the right computer specs. User-friendly interface: easy to pick up. Layout makes finding tools and features quick and easy. Solid integration: Works well enough with other CAD/CAM tools, so can drop into existing workflow without much disruption. > > **Cons**: Expensive: The cost is simply very high compared to alternatives like Fusion 360. Recent changes to their subscription model make it feel even more expensive and less customer-friendly on price. Subscription model changes: switch in how they offer plans compared to a few years ago has made me rethink each year if we can stick with it for the long run, especially for smaller team/company. Learning curve: Interface is good, but still a learning curve to fully get the most out of all the features. > > We’ve really enjoyed using the software – it’s a powerful tool with all the features you could need for engineering design. The software itself is great and delivers on performance for most of our needs. But with the way pricing has been shifting, it’s making me question if it’s worth the investment for our company in the long term. If the cost was more competitive, I’d be all in, but right now, we have to consider alternatives. ----- ### "Great product if you're working with a SolidWorks Reseller (3DXperience)" — 5.0/5 > **Steven** | *6 March 2026* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Access to the Simulation in assembly is a must for our products. I liked the 3DExperience cloud PDM fonctionnalities that are now available in my package > > **Cons**: Without an integrator like (\[sensitive content hidden\]) it is hard to navigate in 3DExperience platform by your own. I strongly recommand to contact a VAR to help you during the installation > > Very good experience overall.
