“Auful CAD Program”

Written on: 22/02/2013 by brokenpieces (1 review written)

I work with multiple CAD packages. The bulk of my work is using NX8. If I had to summarize the issues, I would state the code is non-intuitive, labor intensive, and is riddled with features that either don't work properly, are twitchy, or are overly narrow in scope. To make matters worse, many of our upgrades introduce new bugs that take months to correct. A simple demo will make NX appear to be as effective as other CAD packages though perhaps a few more mouse clicks are required. But... (read more)

“Worst CAD/FEA Tool I've Ever worked With”

Written on: 22/10/2012

Working at a company now that uses Siemens NX 8. I've used plenty of different CAD and FEA systems throughout my career and was quite excited to try NX. I was quite disappointed. This is quite possibly the most un-intuitive CAD program out there. They seriously need to hire entire department of human factors engineers to improved this product to its counterparts in terms of ease of use. Some aspects of NX is just literally backwards. The drafting and simulation modules deserve special... (read more)

“Poor CAD system”

Written on: 07/08/2012 by Izak

I've been working with NX for almost 4 years now and the program still annoys me every day. Before this I’ve worked with Solid edge and Inventor which are 10 times more user friendly. But even when you get used to the system and the complicity of the functions it is still far from nice to work with. You need expensive courses to start, otherwise it will take you months to understand things. They say it can handle big assemblies. But I followed a course for that and did all what is...

“Complex - yes, Powerful - and then some”

Written on: 04/10/2011 by RMalloy03 (1 review written)

I think the hardest aspect of CAD review is to look at features in isolation and NX is a prime case. How can you justify a hefty price tag for 3D CAD software? the answer is to look at it holistically. In this case, although it has a steep learning curve and other mid-ranged software (SolidWorks, Inventor, SolidEdge, etc) can do many of the same tasks, NX is virtually alone in providing (a) multiple ways of accomplishing the same end result, especially with hybrid feature parts/assemblies...

“Detail modeling is OK, though certainly nothing to...”

Written on: 27/01/2011 by mecheng001 (1 review written)

Detail modeling is OK, though certainly nothing to write home about. Extrusions are simple though in complex parts you will find at times that the boolean features are buggy at best. The real atrocity of this cad package is the fact that assemblies are at best unreliable. The constraints are not always certain and there is really no intuitive symetry constraint. The drawing package is not very intuitive and is cumbersome. Will leave you longing for a drafting board (read more)
