From: Bo on 23 Jan 2008 12:08 What all we SolidWorks users & Company's who buy their Software should all be doing is WRITING letters to SolidWorks insisting that Software Quality-Bug fixes become the #1 priority for a truly solid SolidWorks, before the software is released! The lack of the care in initial programming & fixes costs us DEARLY in time losses. These are hard dollar losses in the productivity of some of the more highly paid staff. #2nd, Solidworks needs a stated plan for OS migration if Microsoft keeps screwing up their OS security, speed and ease of use. Vista being panned, MS says Win7 will hit in 2009. Maybe, but given MS failure to deliver an "industrial strength OS", I don't believe them. I know software developers who quietly under their breath bemoan having believed the Gates' line in the early-mid 90s and wrote for Windows, only to be let down time and again (not even considering security issues). Unigraphics trusts Unix flavors HP-UX, SGI IRIX, IBM AIX and Sun Solaris. Unix has and is being done right. So when is SolidWorks going to get on board? Writing letters carries more weight than email. Thanks - Bo

I only know that reading a note said that the new CEO, Mr. Ray, CEO of SolidWorks is promising more stable and well designed software in the future. |
