I have been through a demo and discussions with my managerial people on ISDX surface modeling software.
The guy showing the demo may have been showing the high points of the software and omitting some glaring problems....Apart from my reservations about trusting software sales people(Pro-E corp. tend kinda full of themselves), It looks like it does a fantastic job on complex surfaces related to Industrial Design functions.
My questions to people who actually use the software for real world non-Pro corporate afiliated work:
Does it work as well as it appears? Are there any problems that the salesman is brushing over so that the demos look great but the software is crap?
How long does it take to learn for someone who has done a lot of surfing with the on board surface package and other software surface modelers(ie. Alias, Nurbs, CV5X, etc)? a couple days, a week, a month?
Does the software make surface modeling less laborious?
Any other thoughts, insite, complaints are welcome as I have to justify this software for future projects and possibly the current one.
