Solid Edge is very esay to use ones you know how. It is very intuitive and very user friendly. I like that you can customize the apperence in order to use improve the way you use the software.

In the current version I am using it laggs sometime, I do not know if it is my computer or if it is the software.

The main use I have for this program is to model different designs I made for the indusry of furniture and toys..
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I remember when I first use this program, I alredy knew AutoCad and it was not too different for what I alredy knew. Do not hesitate in changing to Solid Edge you wont regret it.

CAD Instructor switch Solidworks for Solid Edge

  • June 13, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Having worked with several different packages, I find Solid Edge to be one of the easiest to use. It is a powerful program that companies need to take a hard look at. ST is awesome to work with, what would normally require me to drill to the part level at some point, I can do at any level with little to now worry about annoying external references and sketch failures. I have 4 certifications with Solidworks and while I have taken a lot of joy in using it, I find SE to more impressive.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am a K-12 CAD instructor who has switched from Solidworks to SE. how ever the market presence is much smaller. Sales needs to take a much more aggressive approach in the US.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Users will get the direct modeling and feature-based modeling experience. Students are able to pick up modeling easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When reviewing software for your business, Solid Edge should be among the list of competitors for your business. Big or small products, the ROI will be substantial and user experience will be good. Customer service has always been great for me.

The best parasolid software !

  • April 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciated the most about SolidEdge is the user interface which makes it really easy to learn.
Way better than Solidworks I think!
Lots of nice features, and my experience showed that it's easier to put a model into production thanks to SolidEdge than to Solidworks (Sorry Dassault systems ;) )
What do you dislike about the product?
Well the only thing I could dislike with solidedge is its Surface design mode which is not really intuitive yet and could be improved a lot, even if it's not the main feature and reason why we use SolidEdge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Thanks to SolidEdge I was able to put a 3D model from the first phase to the production model.
SolidEdge was able to tell me how I could improve my model to make it feasable for the molding.
I highly recommand this software if you want to do precise modelling and production/feasible models.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get the tutorials from Siemens :)

Solid edge has made modeling easy

  • April 15, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the tools and how easy it is to use. It has a decent user interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dont like the whole idea of assembling the models as layering would have been an easier option. Assembly takes huge amount of time. renderings should have better material options and colour options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am experimenting and exploring different tools to improve my set of skills.

Industrial designer, have used Solid Edge since birth

  • April 15, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is accurate, it communicates well with me and the customer, the rendering is quick. I have used Solid Edge almost since the birth of the program.
What do you dislike about the product?
Surfacing tools, it is not intuitive, it is difficult to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am an industrial designer. My customers needs to see every detail of the product before starting production. this we do in the 3D files and on the renderings. I send the 3D files directly to the constructor/producer and Solid Edge is a great tool for both communicating and get a good process and for the product development itself.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take courses in the beginning.

User friendly interface

  • April 15, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Once you know the interface is very easy to use and there is several ways to do the same object depending on what are your own personal methods or preferences
Also I like the tool of the "explotion" mode to show the parts of an assembly, that has been very useful to me.
What do you dislike about the product?
The quality of the renders, it's very basic, it's ok for internar purposes but not for a final presentation
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have only used it for my studies until now but even at courses where no specific software was designated I decided to use Solid Edge over other modeling softwares
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are plenty of tutorials available, so if something doesn't seem clear, I always take a look first on the website of SolidEdge and if that still doesn't answer my problem I have always found answers to similar problems.

Solid Edge ST2 - College and Early Career

  • April 14, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Solid is a very good solid modeling program. It is easy to understand and the interface is clean and functional.
What do you dislike about the product?
ST2 was somewhat difficult to use in a Industrial Design surfacing environment. I'm not sure what they are offering now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
At that time, I was doing ID/Mechanical design work. I was able to easily create parts and advanced assemblies using solid edge.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This program is great it you do not need to do advanced surfacing techniques.

Solid Edge ST8 - It gives me the edge on the competition

  • April 14, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is wonderfully intuitive and has so much to offer in designing and sculpting. To be honest it has far more features than I could ever need. I have been using Solid Edge since its old version 3, 25 versions ago, and I couldn't do without it. Also the vendors I bought it from - Majenta PLM, are very helpful and respond very quickly to any queries I may have. It also meshes seamlessly with Key Shot rendering software.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only dislikes are that a lot of the development between upgrades is to suit engineers, which I am not. It is also quite costly to keep the license up to date, however it is a tool I need for my trade.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a freelance design consultant working mainly in the luxury goods market, designing anything from writing instruments, bags, hardware, watches , clocks, furniture and retail design. Solid Edge allows me to work very quickly and precisely. It also allows me to interact very effectively with manufacturers and tool makers alike.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The vast bulk of the design world, who can afford it appear to have gone over to Solid Works, however I believe that Solid Edge has, as it were, the edge on Solid Works. I find it easier to work with and is more intuitive.

Solid Edge Precision's Best Friend

  • April 12, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Solid Edge it's an amazing design programme for working with precision. The programme is able to show you when geometry has some kind of error or when you designed something that is physically impossible to build.
The programme increases your geometrical brain ability forcing you to break down everything you imagine into planes, curves, lines and points.
It also helps you to calculate the weight of materials, the resistance and other physical properties that are really useful in the design world.
What do you dislike about the product?
The final piece you get in Solid Edge is not as pretty as other softwares may give you. It doesn't look realistic, but when your looking for technical specs you don't care about aesthetics that much.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use this programme for designing plastic packaging and I realized that the precision that gives it's unbelievable, the error range is very small, and the result of the designs were amazing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Excellent for precision design, easy to learn, friendly and logic, definitely not for rendering.

Friendly Software

  • April 12, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The location of tools and how you can easily understand the software, even if you don't know about 3D modeling.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's been frustrating when I was looking for job that very few workplaces know the software, so I barely use it since I graduate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My best projects were made with Solid Edge, and have opened many opportunities for my professional career.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend to use this software to model simple products, with few details and the render will have bigger impact.
