9 /10

What differentiates Creo from other similar products?

Our prior technologies were hampered by problems such as complicated assembling and inadequate analytical tools. Backups are required since managing files and folders might result in the loss of data. As a result of stringent design standards enforcement, lead times for designs have grown. Creo, when combined with PDM, increased engineering productivity by a factor of four.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Guidelines, resources, flexibility, and broad adoption. software for computer-aided design, allowing for precise 2D and 3D sketching in addition to rendering and other capabilities. Even though I struggled to grasp it, I had to study it for a class, and even though you may struggle to understand it as well, you won't be sorry you put in the effort to learn it once you do.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The training will take a significant amount of time, and the cost of obtaining this license will be a significant amount of money.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

You will discover that CREO is a very helpful tool for the creation of large as well as small assemblies when you use it. In addition to the essential capabilities, you may make use of a broad number of other functions, such as plumbing, wiring, hose routing, and a great deal of other similar capabilities.

  • Respectful
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Trustworthy

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Creo from other similar products?

Large assembly and weak analytical tools plagued our earlier technologies. Data loss through file and folder management necessitates backups. Design lead times increased due to onerous design standards enforcement. Creo with PDM integration quadrupled engineering productivity.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Standards, tools, the ability to adapt, and widespread use. CAD tool for accurate drawing in 2d and 3d, as well as rendering and other functions. Even though I had a hard time understanding it, I was required to study it for a class, and even though I found it difficult to comprehend, once you do understand it, you won't be unhappy that you spent the time learning it.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The training will take a substantial period of time, and the expense of acquiring this license will be a large sum of money.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Whether you are creating big or tiny assemblies, you will find that CREO is a very valuable tool. You are able to make use of a wide variety of functions in addition to the fundamental ones, such as plumbing, wiring, hose routing, and many more.

What differentiates Creo from other similar products?

The main advantage creo has over other softwares is of the price. It is much cheaper than its other counterparts. Organization of trainings is simpler and better than other softwares but the content has scope of improvement in areas covered. Talking especially the way the software suggests tools and a probable next step is wonderful.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

As mentioned earlier the suggestion of tools during 2-D drawing is what amazes me. It also has fantastic integration with Windchill software which I think has a great utility for commercial and industrial uses of CREO. Overall its a powerful tool with multiple options it their array. They have other useful packages and suites which you can install as per your needs and requirements. Surfacing is a specific feature is what distincts it from other softwares. Also it handles assemblies quite well.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The ability to handle large files is what concerned me while working on this. There was a probability that the software will crash while handling large files. This creates lag which no software user wants it especially in deadline driven corporate world. The suggestive feature is kind of buggy in some sense because for me it tried to suggest an assembly which wasn't feasible. So I haven't been able to use the suggestive feature quite a lot so willcomplain in this aspect.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

The price is great so really a value for your dollar. You'll have to stay alert and not just follow its suggestive feature. If you're a student with limited applications and usage with a budget constraint then i'd say go for it. But for large scale industrial purposes I'd rather not suggest this product to them. Because here you tend to use large files and have complex structures and assemblies. So you would like to have a more reliable software which doesn't lag as the file size will be significantly large in this scenario.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Unique Features
