Engineer
4.0

Carolyn L.: Hi, my name is Carolyn. I am a design engineer. I give a rating of four out of five to aPriori, and for more reviews like this, please click below. The software gives us a better idea of how much our mechanical designs should cost, so we can use them to leverage negotiation with fabrication and manufacturers, and people further down the line in supply chain. Yeah, what I like the best about aPriori is that it has a very supportive group of cost engineers and program managers who are there to help their clients succeed, making sure they know how to use the aPriori tool, and get the most out of their licenses and their permissions with editing different functions in aPriori for costing and giving advice on providing engineering changes and design changes to our products. While aPriori has a phenomenal tool set for should costing, it's designed for manufacturing input, and feedback is a little lacking. The software is primarily beneficial for cost engineers or supply chain managers and users versus more so for design engineers. I believe that if they can provide more feedback for good manufacturing practices or better input on how to improve our mechanical designs, it would be a more useful software for design engineers like me.
