Being a SOLIDWORKS customer is exactly the same as being a rat in a cage. They are the most aggressively evil I’ve ever experienced. Adobe etc not even close

I have to use solidworks at work. God, do I miss Creo.

I used Creo for about 5 years at a previous job but I never knew the cost. How does it compare?

[–] Atropos 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Creo has a bit of a steeper learning curve to be sure, and is more expensive.

But it also is, in my experience, much more robust and has a lot more capability on the advanced side of modeling. Solidworks requires more workarounds in order to accomplish what you're trying to do, vs Creo with probably a dedicated tool for that specific task.

Compare in cost

What are some examples? What makes them so much more evil than Adobe?

Not that bad when you sail the high seas
