That is good to hear. I am looking at pricing.
Honesty, maybe. There is a free makers version so people can still edit my files.
From what I can tell if something is 2mm away, you make an edit and that thing is now on the other side of another object it tends to just put it there. Solidworks seems to at least what side of the line was it on. And SolidWorks rarely every loses a projection. Fusion losses it almost every single time.
In the end I am much faster, it takes less steps and editing /parametric is far better with solidworks.
Yeah another complain is sometimes it will complain about something missing and give a ghost of where it was…other times it is just gone and you have no idea what is missing. So going back to a two year old project to edit, it is usually faster for me to redo it. Yet I can still go back into my solidworks from 2015 and have no issues.
I won’t won’t go crazy in this thread I might be time to revist a new CAD thread. I pay $500/yr for fusion, rendering is good not great, Cam is a bonus but I do not use it. Onshape is free if I go completely open source, as in completely even developing openly, and that is a big no thank you. Paid onshape is more than solidworks and what happens when you stop paying, can you still edit old files…and only online. Solidworks is $3k+, no rendering at that price you can do a yearly maintenance but I would not do that but you own it and can easily go back to old files forever. They do have a new package I am actually going to call and ask about it. FreeCAD was not intuitive for me. I spent time learning fusion but the time I waste is a huge bummer, and the BOM system is just about worthless as well.
