For those of us with not so deep pockets, Alibre Atom for $149 works well. On sale for $99 now.
https://www.alibre.com/buy-now/ Does not use the Parasolids modeling engine, uses ACIS. So while it can import Parasolids based files (i.e. created with Solidworks or other Parasolids based softwares), you cannot manipulate them.
But it works just like most any 3D modeler, you sketch on planes, extrude, cut, etc. Its parametric, can loft, sweep, pattern, etc. also creates assemblies and drawings.
its a download to PC, not cloud based, I like that.
$50/year keeps you current.
$300 gets you Atom plus Meschcam in case you have a CNC mill, that gets you the CAM portion for creating g-code files.
I used solidworks since 2,000, but when I retired I needed a home priced solution.
For industry knowledge and adoption, Solidworks is hard to beat, but its $$$
I avoid the "free" ones, inevitably they change later to a pay only deal, then you're stuck with time invested and models in their format.
