Mastercam is lower cost than the other 2.

Mastercam is NOT associative back to the CAD models.

"Wildfires are dangerous, hard to control, and economically catastrophic."
"Fixed in the next release" should replace "Product First" as the PTC slogan.

Mastercam doesn't calculate holder avoidance.(maybe it will in version X)
In Mastercam you can't define stock.
You have to keep one tool multiple times with different speed-feed settings depending on material.OK,in UG tool data files are not up to date and to retrieve tool completeley you have to import it from part file.Going to be better in NX4.
Mastercam is simpler and faster to use.
