"Intuitive 3D modelling functions make it easier to check and modify my models without going through unnecessary steps. Tight integration of Flow Simulation with Solidworks also makes analyzing 3D structures much easier; I can design whatever I need and simulate directly without the over-simplification required by other competitive flow software products."

"SolidWorks makes it easy and useful to create 3D designs for presentation to manufacturers.  With the enhancements and new features (in the product) each year, it continues to save time and get easier to create drawings too."

"To ensure Sulzer Chemtech shares the same platform and version as our parent, Sulzer Corporation, we have always been on subscription with SeaCAD Technologies and continue to enjoy the enhancements in the new version (of SolidWorks) every year."

"SolidWorks was chosen for its ease-of-use, realistic 3-D visualization and simulation functionality.  Quick turn-around to create technical proposals for our customers was also a key requirement, and SolidWorks flexibility enables our design team to do just that - proven through many proposals which always have tight deaadlines. The Magnum team is now able to generate drawings, 3D views, and other engineering data such as mass, volume and centre of gravity in the shortest time possible."

"Previously we typed the G-codes to cut parts manually and it took up a lot of our time.  Now with SolidCAM, creating the programs to cut our parts is very easy; about 4 to 5 times faster than before we had SolidCAM and for larger parts over 5 times faster.  It helps to reduce errors and increases productivity so we can complete more projects than ever before."

"Before using SolidWorks Simulation, certain design need to be justified and required testing but was not possible. With SolidWorks Simulation, it has reduced our design cycle and designing can now be done in much lesser time."

"SolidWorks Flow Simulation is so far my first software use on Thermal Simulation. It is fairly easy to handle after entering all input steps. Although the result is not 100% perfect, it really did give us much more time to change design after every simulation result. There is a significant reduction in time as compared to normal trial and error with standard CNC machining and test results in the past. More great design can be achieved with this software that is easy to handle."

"After evaluating many 3D mechanical solutions, SolidWorks IS THE ONLY one that fulfilled BOTH easy-to-learn-easy-to use requirements. I find the SolidWorks well suited to address my needs in Product Design allowing me to reduced design cycle to 2-weeks from previously one-month."

"SolidWorks Simulation is the only Simulation Software that I am using for testing and designing our products. With SolidWorks Simulation, I am more confident in our design."

"With the use of SolidWorks, we have reduced the product modification time. SolidWorks Simulation has also helped us to see the stress concentrations of our designs. With this information, we will work on implementing solutions to reduced the stress concentrations on our part designs."

"SolidWorks is able to fulfil our requirements to our satisfaction, especially its extensive data exchange capabilities, powerful 2D and 3D capabilities."

"SolidWorks is an affordable software that could easily encompass all our requirements without us having to go through the hardships of parallel runs and pilot tests. The software is easy to learn and user-friendly. Besides, the local engineering support team for SolidWorks did a great job in familiarizing us with their product."

"Though I’ve been design engineer and a SolidWorks user for many years I found the simulation (still COSMOSWORKS during that time) really tricky. You spend great amount of your time making the simulation work instead of focusing on your design. However, with SolidWorks Simulation 2011 our design simulation is much easier to handle now. We can now get our design as realistic as possible to real life scenario without even creating a prototype."

"Magnum Subsea Systems uses SolidWorks for designing concepts, layout drawings and detail design drawings for complex subsea production equipment, accessories and systems. The benefits of the software was evident in many of our project proposals, which tend to have tight deadlines."

"Configuration manager within SolidWorks has allowed end users to work on configurations of assemblies very conveniently. The Configuration Manager also makes these files sizes remain very small for easy sharing of information."

"SolidWorks Simulation is a user friendly software and very easy to use. Time savings is the greatest asset for this software as it can visualize all the parts problems."

"With the new enhancements of the features every year, it makes drawing simpler and more time-saving. Furthermore, the enhancements of the version every year and the user-friendliness of SolidWorks justified our requirement to stay on subscription, to enjoy the benefits subscription offers, especially when a technical issue is faced. A technical issue raised is always being addressed and resolved by the team of SeaCAD and SolidWorks experts provided."

"SolidWorks Simulation is a great product which helps us a lot in making our designing and testing process much easier to be done, shorten time and save up manpower too."

"SolidWorks has a very short learning curve. Students have chosen to use SolidWorks for their final year projects because of its functionalities and design applications. Its also provides intelligent 3D surfacing and assembly capabilities."

"Nutek has made the switch from other 2D and 3D CAD software because of SolidWorks’ short learning curve. It’s very easy for our engineers to learn the extensive functionality in SolidWorks and start designing within one week. The features are stronger than other 3D CAD software we have used and evaluated and are a perfect fit for our company. SolidWorks can be seamlessly integrated into other CAD, CAM, and other applications easily, and allows us to streamline the entire manufacturing process."

"SolidWorks was chosen over Pro-Engineer because of its reasonable pricing and ease-of-use. AutoCAD was not able to allow the designers to see the third dimension, which resulted in design problems. With SolidWorks, they were able to do research and development, and make any necessary amendments, without the need for physical prototyping. This saved them a huge amount on correction and modifications expenses."

"SolidWorks Simulation helps to make the calculations for parts can be done more easily and faster. This software is more reliable for all the models."

"SolidWorks Simulation can tackle the model. Can save a lot of cost and reduce time to do trials. It is also easy to use."

"With SolidWorks, Simtex was able to design directly in 3D, and generate isometric and 2D drawings automatically. The transparency function allowed the designers to visualize the hidden and intersecting pipes in an enclosed space. Ease of generating production drawings for a 3000-part assembly thus reducing design time by 50%."

"We use SolidWorks Simulation because it reduces the time taken on trials and prototyping process."

"SolidWorks allowed us to better present our designs to sales and customers in 3D model making it easy to visualize our initial design concepts. We are able to give 3D data to our suppliers making fabrication more accurately and shorten lead-time.

"SolidWorks has helped reduce the design time and we are extensively using the 2D and 3D conversion features and presentation tools to improve our productivity and effectiveness."

"We renew our subscription service with SeaCAD because we find value in using the SolidCAM software which helps to save time in manufacturing. It reduces error and increase our productivity thus allowing us to receive more projects in the future."

"By using Solido 3D Printer, we obtain better control with our lead time and the process on our prototype to customers."

"PDMWorks provides real-time sharing between various sites. In the past, we used to encounter problems such as mismatched of information and communication. With PDMWorks, it has improved our documentation storage, in regards to revision control. Information can be easily retrieve using PDMWorks such as extracting the past data on parts or assemblies."

"PDM Enterprise has really helped us a lot in revision control, as we share files with multiple sites. We use to have problem getting the latest version. In terms of storage space it has reduce a lot and enable us to find files easily. Increase of about 20% in productive."
