Haven't seen Creo, but that meme sure does remind me of SketchUp. 20 steps to do what Fusion does on 2. But, freeeeee.

Inventor is the worst CAD I have ever used, at the places that use it I can't even find anyone that likes it or knows why they use it and Vault is awful.

SolidWorks is also a pile of shit but at least it's not retarded at a basic level about sketches and mates, though does consistently shit itself. PDM actually seems to not suck absolute ass.

Fusion I only use for the CAM features, the CAD side is inferior to SW but it's obviously not a professional grade software so makes sense. But it's better than Inventor ironically, at least you can select a midpoint in Fusion sketches.

Can't comment on other programs since no one I've worked with used anything else.

:laughing:

I ran inventor for 21-ish years, was professionally certified for 12. I can run that bitch my with eyes closed.
I will agree that Vault is trash. :grinpimp:

Creo has some very powerful features over Inventor for sure, but holy fuck is it wreeeeetarded. Inventor/SW had a more intuitive and functional interface and layout 15 years ago. This is just archaic.

They are rolling out v10 to 10k+ of us at the end of the month. Gonna be a shitshow. :laughing:
 
I love these talks. I teach people coming from Fusion 360 and SolidWorks as well as other softwares to use Creo. It gives me perspective.
Thanks to you all. :smokin:

adds rugger to my speed-dial creo tech support / gripe / wtf list :grinpimp:
 
I'm on the other side of the fence. Started with Pro-E in the mid 90's, ran that until 2014 when the CEO of the company I worked for at the time wanted to switch to Solidworks. Ran that for the next 8 years, now back to Creo.

Both will do what you want. Each has advantages over the other. I prefer Creo as it is much more stable and works on far less PC. The interface is inferior, anything ribbon based is. I've for the most part not worked in a PDM system. Creo doesn't overwrite its files, it saves a new version. This can really save your ass if the model goes south or someone changes their mind. I also like that it won't go looking where ever it feels like to find a file, it will only look where you tell it to look.

I use Inventor for work, still trying to convert them to Onshape - they're resistant. Inventor is, IMO, the most intuitive of the normal CAD programs, but Vault sucks.
CREO is the least intuitive, but Windchill is much better than Vault.
I don't have much time with Solidworks/PDM.
 
Thanks for the replies.
It's helping me in a time of stress :emb4:

see my other thread and help there too please :homer:

Really could do with some inventor, entrepreneurial, business person advice please

Firstly, I don't consider myself an inventor or entrepreneur. I just want some of you who are to help. About 20 years ago, I had an idea that has since been persistently on my mind. Never let it go. Actually is annoying. This year, I decided to fully commit to it, dedicating around 25...
