3D Evolution nous permet de simplifier des assemblages complexes et nous l'utilisons aussi pour nettoyer / convertir des fichiers CAD qui ne sont pas directement ouvrables dans CATIA V5.

Pros

La possibilité de lire et d'export dans divers formats (pour ma part, CATIA V5 principalement). Le fait de pouvoir traiter de relativement gros ensembles (plusieurs centaines voire milliers de fichiers) avec un niveau de performance acceptable. La gestion des licences, flottantes, qui permet de travailler à plusieurs (à tour de rôle). Le support, disponible et compétent. Et la volonté du support de nous aider en corrigeant, modifiant, enrichissant les fonctionnalités de 3D Evolution en fonction de nos besoins. Très bonnes relations commerciales aussi. Et des effectifs stables (toujours les mêmes interlocuteurs depuis des années, qui nous connaissent).

Cons

Quelques fonctionnalités sont manquantes, mais sont en cours d'implémentation. La manipulation des 3D (zoom / pan / rotate) peut se customiser, mais la config CATIA de 3D Evo n'est pas tout à fait la même que sur CATIA V5. Du coup, un peu galère des fois. Les options, nombreuses, pourraient être mieux documentées. Reste le coût, assez conséquent, mais la qualité reste et le prix s'oublie !

Reasons for choosing 3D\_Evolution

Le logiciel était présent dans mon entreprise lorsque je suis arrivé. J'ai par contre participé à l'achat de nouvelles licences.
