Creo Parametric Review

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Creo from other similar products?

This applpication has a unique drawing steps, it supports drawing by equations like when you want to draw a gear for example

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

This was the first application I used for CAD and CAE; it is simple and effective. This application can be used to create a model of a mechanical part or to create large machines and simulate mechanical behaviors.

What do you dislike most about this product?

What I really dislike about CREO is that it necessitates high computer specifications. When you want to render, you'll need a powerful graphics card. This occurred following the release of CREO 6.0.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It is a very powerful application with all of the tools you need, such as rendering, simply, 3D modeling, and the ability to integrate Creo file extensions in Ansys.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable

CRE is Good

Likeliness to Recommend

What differentiates Creo from other similar products?

Cero has its unique way of sketching and reporting. Actually, the reporting is very good feature in CREO rather than other applications.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Actually I only worked with CREO when I was a student, the favourite aspect is that CREO was always the best application we know, But now Solidworks for example passed CREO and become more famous and usable to the international companies.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Computer requirement is extremely high, specially for rendering rather than other applications.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Definitely any mechanical engineer should work and train himself on CREO, It's an excellent application and reliable. But for me I preferred Solidworks because of the massive amount of YouTube training channels out there. Its much famous and you can know whatever you want quickly and easily.

  • Effective Service
