Just read this....
Effective October 28, 2010, PTC is rebranding the following existing
product families: Pro/ENGINEER, CoCreate and ProductView. The new names
are set forth below. All of the current products, including modules and
packages, remain available under new brands and are excellent options for
customers and prospects looking to get on the path to Creo.
Pro/ENGINEER becomes Creo Elements/Pro™
CoCreate becomes Creo Elements/Direct™
ProductView becomes Creo Elements/View™
So, we're not working in Pro/E anymore?! It's Creo Elements/Pro????
I hope PTC knows what is doing.. I really enjoyed being a Pro/Engineer.
Maybe I'm reading it wrong.

    It’s still ProENGINEER just a new name and a new UI.

    Isn’t Creo the term for half French - half Black people living in Louisiana?

    I want to be the half black part because I don’t want to be associated with Catia…

    Isn’t Miss Creo also the name of that big Jamaican psychic lady?

    Could be a reference to anticipating future needs while designing…

    Isn’t the reason to change your name to cover up a shameful past?

    Aren’t we all accessories to that shameful past? OMG it’s all our fault!!!



    Thanks much,

    You are reading it exactly right.  Change your resume today to avoid the rush.

    Just think someone got a bonus because of this….. And it wasn’t me. I see PTC is wisely spending our maintenance dollars.

    Remember when everyone jumped onto the i 2000i then i^2 even Autocad had an i version. All stemming from something apple i think pun intended. This must be PTC’s attempt to coin a new phrase like Just Creo it.

    The bottom line is….All us users want is simplicity.. version 28 would be good by me. We have a user group meeting coming up next week and now all our advertising is ruined. We said we were going to show some WF6 features I guess I will need to send out an update and tell everyone we are now using Creo Elements.. Some smart a.. user will ask the question, Has Adobe gotten that good at 3D that Elements is replacing Pro/E. Heck why not.

    It’s almost Friday.

    Maybe CREO is an acronym… Is PTC facing foreclosure?



    Might stand for CAD Real Estate Owned by the bank…



    Alright, whoever comes up with the best acronym wins!



    Thanks again,

    CREO = Crap, Relegated (to) Engineering Obscurity

    Referring, of course, to the Pro/Engineer brand 🙂
