Tired of people making blatant and false statements about Pro/e.

Over the years I'm REALLY SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE MAKING BLATANT and FALSE STATEMENTS about Pro/e or why Pro/e users use SW or why they went away from using Pro/e.
Anyway, as a long-time Pro/e user and long-time SW user, over the years, most statements against Pro/e or posted on SolidWorks or AutoDesk forums are TOTALLY INCORRECT!

Pro/e stability, reliability, performance, consistency... is MUCH BETTER than SolidWorks!
Pro/e files were/are (but have increased) SMALLER, than SolidWorks.
Pro/e software works BETTER then SolidWorks on LESS expensive hardware, PERIOD!!!!!

And, to be clear,.. I DID NOT FLOCK TO SW because of the above... as a independent contractor, I saw NEW clients considering and moving away from AutoCAD (as I had with my Acad/MDT license) and they did NOT want to invest into Pro/e because of the cost (at that time, ~2-5X more expensive), learning curve and the ASSHOLE PTC sales people!
IMHO (as a consultant for 17 yrs, and ~20 years using 3D), Pro/e users and companies who did not know how to properly use Pro/e, went to SW.
Or, they NEVER needed the power of Pro/e and SW fits their needs much better!

Sadly, (the backdraft or domino effect?) I see many clients getting themselves into the same shitty position using SolidWorks as they did with Acad/MDT years ago.

SolidWorks is a mainstream modeler... it's average... that is, it's basically a chevy or ford .. for all.
Unfortunately, SolidWorks is basically BETAWARE,.. it's riddled with bugs, inconsistency, poor performance, lack of originality, lack of direction, half baked features and functions... and they have consistently proven this year after year after year,.....

Am, I annoyed... yes... yes I am! SolidWorks has made a hell of a lot of money off it's users and gained free support over the users,.. and all they have proved is that they are no different than AutoDesk or any other big company putting out HALF BAKED BETA WAREl!

.. (ok, well,... I feel much better now!) 8^)
