I would not rely on what you might read here...
It is too important an investment!
I amazes me that some of the guys I respect here, do not speak up when missinformation is fly'n. Another reason why you should not rely on what you see here. This is not an exhaustive discussion of the question. Most guys just don't stop by here enough to answer a question quickly.
That said, here is my sound bite:
UG is far better than MC
MC is popular, so what, so is autocad
UG can do what MC cannot, no matter how much time you spend tryin
Vericut is very expensive and is needed only by a very few CAM users
I have not needed it in 20 years of programming on a variety of CAM systems. Wanted Vericut, yes, but have not required it...
With UG, you don't need Vericut. Vericut does do some things that UG does not, but so few people use these fuctions, maybe 2% or less.
MC for 5 axis and a good Modeling program is much more than UG and not even close to the same capability, see above...
Oh I can see it coming now the MC devotees will be all over my statements, but this is the UG forum, MC users go play in your own forum...
You will not regrete a UG purchase unless of course you're not willing to learn how to use it...
