The BEST technical surface modeler out there!
Alias has allowed us to create stunning 3D models of our industrial design projects. When compared to other solutions, nothing can match the outright power and performance of Alias on technical surfacing. We used to spend days or weeks in other tools and we can achieve the same results in hours using Alias.
Pros
Alias has been the standard for technical surfacing for decades. The name alone instills confidence, but using the software has been inspiring. With the powerful surfacing and sampling tools we have been able to design new products with ease as well as reverse engineer physical prototypes and other scanned data into very clean and tight models.
Cons
The UI is a little antiquated, but the software remains powerful. If the pallets and toolboxes were of a more modern feel, the software would be easier to use (and the overall learning curve would not be as steep).
