Great program for complex parts and assemblies.
What do you like best about the product?
NX could be used at a lower level/entry-level CAD users, but also is a powerful tool for skilled users.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am very familiar with SolidWorks, so there was a learning curve in learning the new commands and placements of tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am reverse engineering small parts to find ways to make them more efficient.

CAD Analysis
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can do a lot of different simulations and analyses
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not very user friendly. The mating features are extremely touchy and sometimes you have to align the models to get them to accept the mating you want.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am doing remediation and looking how components mate together. It can show me simulations, interference, and calculate clearance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's not very user friendly. It might be beneficial to take a class first.
Low User Friendliness
What do you like best about the product?
Positives: Compact file structure, an entire assembly and drawing can be contained within the same file, making it easier to control transfers and storage of designs without file management issues. Not sure what the size limitations on it are.
What do you dislike about the product?
User friendliness seems very low. Part of it is that it is VERY different than Solidworks, Creo, and CATIA as far as modeling strategies go. A number of our competitors use it, and we get translations from them and they are generally very hard to work with in any of the the three software I mentioned above. If you need to convert between programs bringing para solids (.x_t files) into Solidworks from NX works best for me. Not a fan of the layer/hide-show method used, very similar to MasterCam though. Also there seems to be a limited amount of searchable information on the internet to help solve issues or figure out ways to tackle modeling.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our biggest advantage from the program is handling 3rd party data and customer data from some key customers. The interface puts people off from going the extra mile to learn the software well enough to see other benefits above our core 3 software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Implement as many training courses as possible, there isn't much information out there for quick searches compared to other software so those classes will be very important.
Soft That Leads to the Future
What do you like best about the product?
Layout of and customizability of the tool ribbons, ability to create, and use, journals for repetitive tasks. Being able to load multiple versions of a given part to allow for quick caparison of those parts with surface meshing
What do you dislike about the product?
processing times to perform tasks are extensive at times
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Designing the future of transportation with electric and autonomous vehicles. ability to do initial analysis within the softawre
Recommendations to others considering the product:
use multiple monitors so that you can view the assembly structure on one screen while doing your main work on the other. Something to consider is the use of journals for frequently completed tasks. NX allows you to record task you perform and assign those tasks to a radial button letting you select the one button to run a string of actions.
Nx for Beginners
What do you like best about the product?
It is similar to other CAD programs so switching from one to the other is simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far. I enjoy using the program.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to innovatively design parts. Not too many benefits just yet as I just started using it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the tutorials online and the help bar. It is very helpful :)
Quality CAD Software
What do you like best about the product?
The software is robust, there are never designs which you cannot create using the tools allowed. There is a decent community for learning the software.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is steep. Without having taken a class on NX, I would not easily be able to find its features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This software allows me to easily create 3D models of parts, which I translate to 3D printed prototypes.
One of the best 3D software
What do you like best about the product?
Parametric system, PLM software integrated
What do you dislike about the product?
Many quick fuctions and 2D drawing with low functions
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Conceptual protoyping
One of the best 3D CAD software.
What do you like best about the product?
It has excellent user interface and does not crash as often as other software.
What do you dislike about the product?
unable to change between metric units and English units
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
mechanical engineering. able to model parts with complicated geometry.
Siemens PLM NX
What do you like best about the product?
An extremely powerful software for integrating multiple aspects of product development. The user has complete control over most of the features.
What do you dislike about the product?
Definitely not the easiest software to learn. If this is the first software you're learning, it'll take a longer time to learn in comparison to some of the other software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Product design, assemblies
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ideal for complex assemblies, not the best for basic designs.
Happy designer
What do you like best about the product?
Easy for modeling. Plenty of training resources provided by siemens
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't been using it long. I have nothing to compare it to. So far no complaints
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Designing issues and performing engineering changes. Easy to grasp concepts and customize placement and accessibility to help in designing quickly and more effeciantly
