Solidworks User - Learning Fusion 360

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone!

I have been a Solidworks user for more than 10 years. I am a professional mechanical designer, mainly in the field of mechanisms, mechanical parts and vehicles.

For a matter of license costs I am thinking in Fusion 360 as new design software.

I think that for the type of work I do, Fusion is powerful enough. I only have some doubts about the ability to handle large assemblies (or more than 50 components), I have already read in forums that gives some problems.

However, my biggest worry is the learning curve. I have started working on Fusion and the process of learning how to use it (with a Solidworks base) is becoming very difficult for me.

Anyone have any similar experience about it? Has anyone replaced Solidworks with Fusion?

Thank you very much.

Carlos.

I'll let our user base comment on the transition process (I had started my CAD journey as a Solidworks user before joining Autodesk 4 years ago) -- two big things, check out RULE 1, and our Solidworks Transition Guide.
