Overall Satisfaction with Autodesk Inventor

Primary tool to engineer complete systems from the smallest part upto the assembled lines put together. Furthermore we design our units and equipment in Inventor, as well as creating exploded views for parts lists and visuals for sales purposes and user manuals. We are now making steps in the FEA-module

Pros

  • Sheet metal features
  • 2D drawing tools
  • VBA / iLogic integration

Cons

  • Style management
  • State changes can not be made from within Inventor
  • With CTO-designs and VBA capabilities in Inventor our engineering time is reduced by 80%
  • With the capability to import non-native extensions we don't have to remodel 3rd party models
I have no current experience with SOLIDWORKS

Do you think Autodesk Inventor delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Autodesk Inventor's feature set?

Yes

Did Autodesk Inventor live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Autodesk Inventor go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Autodesk Inventor again?

Yes

Inventor is the one and only tool I would recommend. It functions straight-forward and especially the sheet metal environment is a delight. Stability could be better at times, we are looking in that at the moment. It's possible this is a result of working with old migrated files. FEA is next up on our list
