Solid Modeling: Which Program is Best?

Parametric solid modeling programs such as UG, ProE, Ideas, SolidWorks, Solid Edge, Inventor, Alibre and others are here to stay. But, which one is the right one for your organization?

Parametric CAD programs began in the late '80s with Pro Engineer. They map component surfaces in such a way as to preserve the shape of the solid and allow "slicing", "milling", "boring", "extruding" and other manufacturing-type operations to be performed during the CAD drawing/design phase. They have revolutionized drafting into more of a design profession.
