3Dconnexion Space Mouse Enterprise (3DX-700056)

Wow, I love this thing. I have had the wireless small version for years and it worked, but this is sooooo much better. Unlike the wireless one, you don't have to worry about constant disconnections (obviously), or it shifting around because it is larger and your hand will be anchoring it down so it won't be moving all over the place. I have a couple Stream Decks too and a Shuttle Prov2 (I'm big into productivity gadgets), screen tablet & pen, and this is a great addition. I love the 12 buttons with the screens, and the best is the front/right/top/etc. buttons and even better are the 3 View Saving and Recalling buttons.I use this in Blender (I had to make my own plugin for the 3 views to work though, but in all other 3D apps I use the View Saving works flawlessly), 3DCoat, Rhino, Substance Painter, Unreal and I even use it in non 3D apps like vscode for shortcuts and stuff, and even music apps like Reaper, Dorico ...basically everything.The View Saving 3 buttons are the best in 3D though, time saver!6/5 stars!

Arrived on time and worked as expected. The Particular Seller is Phenomenal.

Always wanted one of the puck type pointing devices with many buttons that allowed dedicated CAD station operators to keep the pointer hand off the keyboard and avoid switching back and forth. Now I'm retired but still spend a significant amount of time designing for 3D printing, and I can finally afford one. Merry Christmas to me.No big problem getting it up and running. Plug and play, but I did have to use the default driver, not the specific one called out in the instructions.I'd appreciate yet another row of programmable buttons but having the assignments change not only with the app but the context of the app provides a lot of functionality. Most of the commands needed on a regular basis can be covered by one of the customized buttons. Handy one button selection menu provides access to customization and training any time.Not portable by any means, and tethered by a USB connection, but that is understandable with all the illumination involved on the device. Having a screen to show the current purpose of the dozen primary programmable buttons is great, since they change as noted above. Almost all of the other buttons that default to keyboard special keys can be reprogrammed also if desired, but there is noting to prompt the user of the change.The traditional mouse is still available in all its functionality, so unless the user is entering text, the user can leave the keyboard alone. Note that I have only used this with AutoCAD and MS Office apps.Reminds me of my righthander keyboard from the 70's that was just a plastic hemisphere with enough buttons to allow selecting characters in binary from the ASCII table. No mouse available in those days, but no GUI either.

Absolutely amazing mouse for editing models and PDF blueprint drawings

I am learning how to make CAD drawings and this was recommended to me by pros that absolutely use this thing everyday and love it. I'm still a beginner and I'm sure I'll get better at using this, there is a little bit of a learning curve, but with practice I'm sure it will come naturally for me as well.

Does not work with 3D software, blender, C4D etc

Been using 3dconnexion products since the early '90s. I bought this to replace my aging my space navigator. The base is a major improvement ergonomically, my old space navigator had a tendency to move around on my desktop and the enterprise remains firmly planted. The hot keys are actually useful, configuring them to behave how you want them to is easy enough and the device easily detects what software you're running. Overall it's a pretty solid device and really handy although overpriced. But... there's not a huge demand for this device so I get it. If you're a 3D CAD modeler like me... this is a must have device. Don't let the price scare you away, it will pay for itself.

its and awesome accessory for 3d graphics design
