As a professional SolidWorks user I was very excited when they announced the Maker license for people who want to use the software at home for their hobbies. I wanted to do exactly that and use the maker edition for my personal projects.
I've had a SolidWorks Maker subscription for the past year and it has constantly had issues. Always having to install hotfixes every time you go to use the software, sometimes it would work after a hotfix but most times it wouldn't and you'd have to waste an hour trying to find an answer to your problem or having to uninstall and reinstall the software.
Now with the 2024 edition being released it will not allocate me login credentials even though I have a valid subscription.
I've switched to Fusion 360. So far it has been very reliable, when I want to use it: it just works...
This isn't an endorsement for Fusion 360, more a PSA about how terrible the 3D experience platform is and especially the maker license.
