Customization Gaps: Lacks some customization options. Project Tracking: No centralized “Track Projects” tab to view all projects at once. > > Users praise DesignFiles for its user-friendly interface, responsive customer support, and ability to streamline workflows, particularly for mood boards and client approvals. However, frustrations with the 3D tools, limited furniture variety, and occasional clunkiness in features like background removal or floor planner navigation. The software is continuously updated based on user feedback, with regular webinars and video tutorials to support learning. ----- ### "Your models are handled by Geomagic Design X." — 4.0/5 > **Souleymane** | *26 August 2023* | Mining & Metals | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The key feature that I like is the ability to create accurate 3D models from scanned data obtained from various sources such as 3D scanners, mesh files, and more. > > **Cons**: What I don't like is the automatic generation of parametric design features. From my point of view, I find it not very efficient. > > Geomagic Design X is widely utilized in the fields of engineering and manufacturing. It remains a good software, even if it wasn't to my personal liking. ----- ### "25 years of use" — 4.0/5 > **Remi** | *31 January 2023* | Luxury Goods & Jewelry | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The most significant for me is the user-friendliness of the interface. Dialog boxes not too overloaded with functions and options. The hybrid design mode that allows you to work with meshes, surfaces and solids. The mastery and accuracy of reverse engineering with control tools. > > **Cons**: I don't use any design assistant (Wizard) to keep control of my designs. I also prefer to stay in a 3D sketch rather than a 3D mesh sketch. This leaves more freedom in the design of 3D curves. Still lack of being able to deactivate the snap filters in this mode (to be able to move a curve point without snapping to a background element). Atlas texture mapping missing (not possible to edit the map generated in DX). Many features are gone since Rapidform2006 (surface editing mode, displacement map generation, grey scale modeling (engraving), and many other). > > I have seen this software grow and evolve since these first versions (in 1998). It's amazing how the tools and functions have evolved (with the evolution of 3D scanners and computers). It is for me, today, the most powerful and efficient tool for my daily modeling (meshes \& CAD solids). I also use other software which are for me only secondary.I was able, thanks to this tool, to deliver hundreds of projects with a very appreciated result. ----- ### "The real reverse engineering software." — 5.0/5 > **Murat** | *1 December 2023* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Being a user of Design X for 10 years, it is always enjoyable. It is a dedicated software, not a patch. You can connect your scanner and finish your design by usşng Design X only. Freeform surface modelling is a piece of cake for it. But, you have to know what kind of a workpiece you are working on. It is a perfect solution in competent hands. If you are familiar with a CAD software, Solidworks, Autocad, Inventor etc. you can easily learn Design X. > > **Cons**: I know that Design X developers does not spend time on features which are already in CAD softwares. However, sometimes I lack for features like hole library, sheet metal modules etc. > > I enjoy using this software. Looking forward to see its new features with the force of Oqton. ----- ### "Reverse engineering never been easy" — 5.0/5 > **Dee** | *5 March 2023* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Deviation analysis and ease of use of the software > > **Cons**: Surfacing is kinda lacking. If we can do what catia/nx does with their surfacing. This software is complete. > > Best ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1038237/geomagic-design-x?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/1038237/geomagic-design-x) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
