Latest Customer Product Reviews  Quick response and works as expectedWas a bit skeptical ordering student edition from someone other than Dessault, but I got my student verification/download link/product codes in less than a day and its a few bucks cheaper which is always a plus. Will be ordering from Novedge again in the future.Review Product14992 Great product.So far so good. Really appreciate some of the new features introduced in 2018.Review Product3180 Poly Trans run by a guru that has been in the field foreveerI am a former Medical R&D guy who spent many years in the 3D graphics arena writing code. During my time I had the good fortune to become acquainted with Robert Lansdale.3D translations are one of the more complex areas of 3D software development. All translations are subject to some level of interpretation. Some interpretations are more technically correct while others are more aesthetically correct. PolyTrans is the only translator I know of that does a robust job of translating from a plethora of formats to another plethora of formats! If you want a translation that "looks good" but is not technically accurate perhaps, on very rare occasions, PolyTrans is not for you. But having said that you will be passing by the one translator that can go from practically anything to almost anything else. If you are not getting the translation you want I'm betting that it is either the original model and the way it was modeled or a translator that has some technical flaws that make certain models serendipitously look better. I never write reviews but when I saw the egregious bashing done by someone who is a newbie to 3D modeling I had to respond for the sake of all the 3D modeling community. Modo itself has many modeling issues. For example, it has no arc construct only an arc wedge! This causes problems when you want to create a surface patch by running and arc down two spline guide rails, as you get stuff in the middle you don't want. I tried to show my email address for the sake of transparency and legitimacy but could not get the site to do so: grierson@lek.netReview Product1063  Great ProductBluebeam has many custom tools, which help increase the workflow between our engineers and CAD technicians, especially those working in different locations.Review Product1407Outdated software run by an ego-maniacI suggested my work buy this product to translate CAD files. That was a mistake. First signs of trouble came when I asked how to use the software and I got a novel of text which seem to all affirm that Robert Lansdale is a genius and everyone else on the planet is stupid. A simple tutorial would have been great, like I'm used to with all the other software I use daily.Robert Lansdale really thought it was important to "change my perceptions". He also told me at one point that this company is an experiment in human psychology. Yikes! I just want to translate files to do my job for the company I work for. At one point I showed him how MODO Power Translator tessellated the mesh of a part of the assembly versus his Polytrans product, and to me it was a night and day difference that the MODO Power Translator looked MUCH better. He then told me that that's my perception, but if I knew as much as he did I would know that his is more technically correct. Wow. I let him know that I'm in marketing and that my whole job revolves around perception. At one point I was trying to cover my butt at work since I had advocated buying this product, so I asked Novaedge if I could get a refund. Robert started sending emails to people in my company telling them he couldn't work with me, and on and on. Basically trying to throw me under the bus to protect his reputation (and fragile ego). I could go on since I archived every exchange with Robert. It's hard to believe that such a terrible company can have a place in the marketplace. So, in summary, this product is a good idea and I wish more companies would compete against this terribly run company. The software looks like it's from the early 90's as well. There's too much Robert in PolytransReview Product1063 When Came word design always thinking about Solidworks 😍Solidworks name is inough for engineering student.In every engineering project and also engineering related event like sae baja, sae supra ,robocon, underwater robotics etc.always first desining software come SOLIDWORKS 😍. Review Product14992  A few too many features locked into eXtremeA few of the OCR features are a little unfortunate to be tied to this version of Bluebeam. It would be nice if OCR was in the lower versions of the software.Review Product5759 |
