Difference between UG and ProE

RE: Difference between UG and ProE
Simple answer is Nothing. they will both create your parts and produce drawings based on the models.
Complex answer requires more questions as to what type of business/parts do you create, how large is your company, etc.
I have both systems. The last UG version I use is NX1. I have just started to play with WF2.
I still prefer UG for most things as it is more flexible in getting the job done with fewer workarounds and a lot less mouse clicks. UG is easier to customize as you don't need to be a C programer.

From what I know, the advantage that UG has is that you can work in a very parameterized world or not. ProE has to live ONLY in the parameterized world. For some, this is the biggest factor in using UG over ProE.

If you like having everything in a logical order, lots of intuition & working with parametrics, then go for Pro/E.
If you want something that is flexible & allows for many different modeling approaches, then go for UG.
Personally, I feel you get more bang for the buck with UG, especially in the area of support. You may wish to look at which industries currently use the major CAD softwares out there & you might get an idea of which is preferred for your particular product(s).
I'm guessing there's a reason Pro/E doesn't dominate the auto & aerospace industries, but you won't get one from a Pro/E loyalist.

I follow your post about 1/2 way through then it gets confusing...
So, either Pro/E IS hard to use? or you just saying that you hire dumb people?
I can't say anything good or bad about Pro/E as I have never used it, I'm just trying to understand your post.
