Its a must-have in the industry where we have limited licenses for CAd Softwares, it gives users an opportunity to economically continuing their projects.

Pros

It gives an option for users to continue their work without getting into buying expensive software.

Cons

I used it for viewing CAd files only, hence it was much useful and I did not come any salient cons.

Pros

To open models and drawings easily, can open most of the model- flexible.

Cons

Trail - very limited. I had to open minimum number of files to assure that i will be able to proceed to open models when needed. In General, i need it for short uses a few times a week...

I used it primarily for a CAD viewer. It worked ok given the limited use .

Pros

I do not remember much about using this software. I was looking for a free CAD viewer and our IT directed me to this program. I used it primarily to view CAD files to understand what the parts looked like and didn't have the opportunity to explore it's feature in the short trial period

Cons

Trial period was too short. It expired before I was able evaluate if it was something I would want to purchase.

Pros

The user interface of EnSuite is great, intuitive, and overall compliments our current software suite. The program works with large assemblies with reasonable speed, although loading could be faster. I'm able to use the program easily to get the data I need from it, in terms of CAD conversion and measurement images for stress analysis reports.

Cons

Compatibility with current Catia releases. Our customers use newer releases of Catia than EnSuite has compatibility. Unfortunately, that simply makes the software inadequate for our needs.

I am using the software to spot check dimensions of 3D models converted from 2D drawings, and this was perfect for the job.

Pros

The software was pretty straightforward once I got accustomed to where the buttons were. I was able to easily upload the models I wanted to view. I mostly used the software to gather dimensions from 3D models.

Cons

It was sometimes difficult to get the precise measurements I was looking for, but that may have just been able a familiarity issue. I was able to easily find workarounds.

Pros

I liked the ease to use. I used it to quickly calculate some volumes from some designs we had in a hurry. Unlike a lot of other CAD tools, we could analyze the models in no time with EnSuite-View, that's a thumbs up from me.

Cons

It looked a bit empty, I'm not entirely sure what other functionalities this software had, as I used it just for a very brief and specific task.

Pros

It is very simply to be used and it can work with high complexity design.

Cons

There are no missing features considering it’s a free SW. Probably an italian language could be great.
