PlantWorks?

PlantWorks?

PlantWorks?

(OP)
Is there anyone out here using this Add-in from Javelin? I have been searching for something just like what they are claiming and I am curious how much of this is true. Looks to good to be true or someone is doing some serious black magic in the background of this add-in.

It was explained to me that I can bring in models and save them into a library. That is suppose to compress the heck out of the file make it into a Block like item in a library, with Smart mates. Which allows me to bring in those files to create an entire plant layout. (Check out the image to the right of the page)

Just curious if anyone has used this and what are your thoughts?

Cheers,

RE: PlantWorks?

Looks pretty good.

Why not contact Javelin and ask if they are able to supply a trial licence. They may even have some users in your area which you could visit or speak with.

Thanks for the reply CBL!

I am working with our VAR to contact him and get a Trial and a cost... I was just curious if there were any users out there using it and get their opinion.

MY concerns with asking Javelin about the product is like asking Solidworks or AutoDesk which product is the best... they are all going to say their product is the best. Which is why I was looking for an outside users opinion of the product.

if you talk to anyone with experience, I would love to get their feedback.

Kind Regards,
