From: neil on 24 Jan 2008 01:10 and unfortunately after so long users complaining about these things and not getting anywhere the idea that a SW CEO might actually deliver on something asked for meets with a "yeah, right.." response which in itself is an unfortunate comment on relations but ok on reflection I am prepared to give the new man a chance - over the next release will all be able to see whether his words were just slick ointment for SWW... if he means it and delivers Mr Ray will have the honour of being 'the' industry leader who recognised CAD times have changed and it requires a different approach and all users will thank him because the whole CAD industry will have new rules to play by. of course I will still keep telling him what to do and say lest he messes up.. ;o)
From: iQ on 24 Jan 2008 11:45 buggs in the software, that do not seem to get fixed. using versions of OS that are know to cause problems. lack of real support to our internal issues, not to mention actaul statements from SolidWorks corp. that they will not be doing anything to some of our internal issues, no future advancements to support these issues. crashing issues that cannot be reproduced. degrading software the more we use it forcing us to rebuild computers multiple times in the year. service packs issues. issues with gold partner add-in packages. different issues depending on how i install to same service packages. lack of in-house support to help with issues, free or paid by us. i am being told that this will never happen. i can continue, but i have other things to do. this is forcing our company to look at other software packages. i have had issues with CAD programs that forced a company to change software but never from functional/support/problem issues. i want you to know that talking with other CAD vendors, they are gobbling these issues up. it just goes to show you that "never follow a winner, always follow a loser. you will look far much better." iQ
From: fcsuper on 24 Jan 2008 21:18 There is a new focus on improving the quality of the product, supposedly. The presumption is that they will start making quality a higher priortiy, but 2009 seems to have A LOT of new capabilities. So who really knows. That said, the changes announced for 2009 so far are awesome and I can't way to get my handed on it. Matt Lorono http://sw.fcsuper.com
