Alibre = Solidworks & Inventor???
I received an e-mail promotion from Alibre today to upgrade to Alibre Professional. The e-mail included this statement:
"Alibre Design 9 now has Design Configurations..... This fills the last major gap in features versus the competition. So, you can get all the power of SolidWorks or Inventor with a simple upgrade."
I love Alibre, but I'm still sore about the lack of V9 implementing the mass of suggested enhancements - enhancements that SW & Inventor already have.
I use Alibre because it is the most bang for the buck this user can afford. If my business were 40+ hours a week, the work arounds to get some of the standard "power" included with SW or Inventor might be worth a switch.
The lack of these enhancements, no configurations for standard users, the loss of layers bugs me, but please don't tell me that in light of the above that Alibre Professional V9 has "all the power of SolidWorks or Inventor..."
