Good link between CAD and FEM
What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that there is a good link between CAD and FEM. This allows to do quick design iterations. I also like the fact that I can work with orphan meshes and recreate the geometry.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the orphan meshes flow is not working smoothly. There are issues with the offsets and stitch. Sometimes visualisation has bugs like wrong colors and sometimes it is not easy to select.
Selection of coordinate frames is an enigma, very bad an inconsistent.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used for update of legacy models and mesh of complex composite models.
Used for quick studies related to buckling.
Used for load fileld transfer between different models.

A software for everyone
What do you like best about the product?
Broad range of applications and user friendly interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation available. Or, if it is available, difficulty to find the relevant documentation and examples.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simcenter 3D is a useful when it comes to end-to-end product development. It is great to be able to adjust designs and directly see how such change influences the results.
Very user friendly product
What do you like best about the product?
Simcenter 3D is very user friendly. The graphics are good. The lay-out is well made and working through it is very inuative.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some functions have a lacking example, or lacking explanation on how to use it. As an example I wanted to create some results variables, and a results Probe so I could define a formula that would automatically process the results in each of the nodes/elements. I now found an example on YouTube but I would've preferred finding examples on this functions on your website. Or maybe if it is there, be better instructed on where to find these examples.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping with verifying the designs that I'm creating. Think of strength, fatigue, etc.
All software you need in one package
What do you like best about the product?
Fantastic user support! Always answering to e-mails and they are open to suggestions to make the software better.
SC3D is suitable for automation (I like a lot that we can use Python and C).
Attributes and especially the fact that you can create user attributes is very important, but there is some room of improvement here.
Parametric models linked with HEEDS is wonderful, but again here is some more to be developed.
Selections techniques and selection recipes save a lot of time in pre and post processing.
The fact that there are objects like NFR save a lot of time, this can be extended to some other objects (as extractions).

What do you dislike about the product?
There is some inconsistency between modules (like different behavior between FEM / SIM / PRT).
Some work for making the flow more robust (sometimes updates are failing, like stitch).
There can be some improvement for the QA process and also there are engineering issues:
- inconsistency in units in formulas
- vectors with arrows and signs
- coordinate transformation always projected

Static linear and non-linear Simulations for Aerospace
We use it in day-to-day simulations; it closes the gap between CAD and Analysis.
Unfortunately it is hard to quickly increase the productivity, as the tool is very complex and needs a very long learning curve. For example people are puzzled that they need to jump to file to file and that the CAD from FEM is different than the CAD from PRT.

Excellent integrated enviroment
What do you like best about the product?
Detailed documentation. Easy way to retrieve command locations via search tool. Integrated environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Different behavior between Post Processing Navigator and Scenario Based data-Visualization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Durability performance of powertrain systems.
Simcenter 3D Motion is excellent tool for rigid multi-body dynamics
What do you like best about the product?
Simcenter 3D Motion provides excellent versatility for mechanism modeling, with an extensive feature set (constraints, applied forces/torques, efficient analytical contact, various mechanical elements, ability to utilize external data, use of sub-models, post-processing, etc.). It is generally easy to use and will be familiar to NX users. Documentation is extensive and the software is stable. Relatively recent features additions to help with managing model configurations and parameter studies are very helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Managing the software licenses is more time-consuming than it needs to be, and there is little transparency with respect to functionality and token cost for additional modules. There are some aspects of managing model inputs/outputs that can be frustrating, such as wading through long unordered lists of functions/expressions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My business uses Simcenter 3D Motion regularly for simulating products across their lifecycle -- from early development to production to eventual retirement. Models in Simcenter 3D Motion help us evaluate design options, tune product performance, understand observed failures, assess decision implications, etc.
It's tremendous to get all my work done on one platform.
What do you like best about the product?
I can simulate real life in virtual environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Command windows are very tight when you first open them. :D
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
NVH, Acoustics, Structural
Really useful software for accurate visualization of product
What do you like best about the product?
The best feature of Simcenter 3D is how seamlessly it integrates all the layers of design and helps to visualize and edit the design easily. It brings alive an idea accurately.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside i can think of at the moment is that it requires specialized skills and knowledge to operate this software. However, with enough practice, this can be easily overcomed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping in designing a personal project I have been working on and is helping me progress in my journey as I can visualize the mistakes in my design through Simcenter 3D
Simcenter Seamless Workflow
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing every time I have to use Simcenter is that I don't have to open a second application with a different GUI and UX just to defeature and prepare geometry for analysis and motion simulations.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that sticks out to me about Simcenter is how FloEFD solver is integrated into Simcenter. Though this is very difficult, I wish that starting a FloEFD simulation started just like a fem/sim model. Where you could utilize the same .fem file as for other analyses. But I realize FloEFD's backend is very different.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simcenter helps us link initial conceptual designs early to analysis so that major improvements can be made early on. Preventing major rework of designs due to minor oversight. In the past, our simulations were done on standalone applications that did not carry the model tree over. If the analysis results do not meet the criteria using Simcenter with native NX parts allows for the analyst to make iterations to show the actual improvements made by design recommendations, prevent a hold where designers had to update geometry and then resubmit it to the analysts just to experiment on design improvements.

What do you dislike about the product?
CAD-based data model seems too heavy. Performance may be an issue, specifically for huge models or models with lots of load cases
