“Amazing 3d machining results
Pros
The high-speed machining stood out because the toolpaths are well optimized for 3D work and that gave me noticeably smoother surface finishes. The interface is also very user-friendly so even coming in without much CAM experience, I was able to get comfortable with it quickly. It was simple to learn, easy to implement and really helpful for getting started.
Cons
On the downside, the 2D feature feels somewhat limited so it may not be the strongest choice if advanced 2D machining is a priority. The pricing also seems a bit on the higher side and could be more reasonable. Customer support was another weak point as it wasn't particularly impressive when help was needed.

“fast workflows but confusing menus
Pros
In my experience speed is definitely one of its strong points. The tree bar on the left is really useful and the tool chuck animation is among the best I've seen. It also looks polished and smooth and the compatibility with Ansys and SolidWorks is a real plus.
Cons
The menu design is pretty confusing though. It feels unclear what the thinking was behind the layout and there are just too many buttons doing different things which makes it harder to work with.
