Migrating from ProE

[alansimpson]

I have a good offer from Solid Edge to supply licence + technical suppport for 1000 euro for first time users, usually around 7000 euro. I have used ProE for a few years and I am considering migrating for a new employer.

Any oppinions?

I thought ProE was the bomb until I learned how to use Solid Edge. Can't stand that menu driven interface now. Solid Edge is much friendlier to use and you can use it to establish a managed workflow as well. It has really great sheet metal tools too.

Purely personal opinion, but Solid Edge was the easiest software package for me to learn. It also happens to have the workflow that matches the way I think. (Tell the program your end item goal -- a protrusion; and it tells you the steps you need to take to get their -- plane, sketch, protruded distance. This workflow, as opposed to creating a plane, creating a sketch on that plane, then using that sketch to create a feature only to have the feature tell you that your sketch doesn't meet its requirements after the fact.)
