Designed to assist architects, interior designers, and mechanical engineers with 2D and 3D computer-aided designing, using dimensioning, constraints, rendering, surface and solid modeling.
Ideal for manufacturers, engineers & designers, it is a cross channel platform that helps users create 3D/2D models and provides with simulation & visualization capabilities using advanced AR tools.
Not only that, the fact that it's available for both Mac and Windows operating systems made it super amazing by providing that flexibility.
I suffer everytime I use it, if you are familiar with other CAD systems, don't waste a cent on Turbocad.
A lot of things we like about this program - The tutorials are very helpful. The green design eco friendly details are helpful in our state.
The software is a bit sluggish when it comes to 3D.
Overall I would say that TurboCAD is a very powerful tool that will allow users to create and manipulate 3D objects. It has a pretty good Photorealistic render and a whole lot of features and tools.
Then after upgrading to the latest version in hopes of fixing the problem I find that the software no longer works.
The services offered are very good and focus on helping the client in all possible ways.
The only suggestion we have is that the program come with more in depth paper print directions. Some employees prefer hard copy to doing the tutorials.).
And the fact that Creo Illustrate can be used for technical illustrations is great - it allows me to create beautiful visuals with ease.
Bad product tree structure. Frequent data saving problems.
The Parametric Nature of the Software and the Design Intent is superb. Excellent for Solid Modelling ( drafting , part modelling, Assembly module, Detailing, Sheetmetal).
The Windchill software is very clunky and difficult to use. The online resources aren't easily searchable, and it can be difficult to learn.
The best part of this tool is that the complex geometries can be made easily and on top of it the sketching part is possible. The surfacing capability of this tool is also very robust and efficient.
Every single time it tries to assume something for you, it does it wrong. Why would I ever assemble objects by selecting surfaces that are NORMAL to each-other.
I find it great for whoever has a 3D printer and needs to quickly draw parts without the issues of handle parameters and constraints. So, quickness is another great advantage.
I've been using some form of Creo in multiple Jobs for 10+ years, and the only thing that it is able to do consistently is confuse and annoy me.
Karee S.: Hi, my name is Karee and I am a STEM teacher. And I would give Creo a four out of five. And for more reviews like this, click the link below. We use Creo a [inaudible 00:00:13] third, fourth and fifth grade students to create virtual models. So they did 2D into 3D sketches, and then we were actually able to then 3D print their engineering designs and then test out their physical prototypes as well. Some things I really liked about Creo is, is a really professional software that was used in real world. I know a lot of actual engineers use Creo software. So if students actually ever decided to take those career fields, it'd be a product that a lot of professionals use, which was really great. And also, it created really high quality products for us to be able to 3D print. So even though we liked the software because it was professional and really high quality, some things that were difficult about it is it made harder for our younger students to use. It wasn't as kid friendly or intuitive, especially students that weren't used to using the mice and the certain tools. And there weren't as many tutorials in Creo as there were in other CAD softwares that might be a little bit more kid friendly. So even though we really liked using it, it was a great high quality product, it definitely was harder for our students to learn and use.
