Need your advice: Should I move to SolidWorks?

[bardd]

I've been using Autodesk Inventor for quite some time now, and I'm thinking of maybe moving to SolidWorks, because I heard it has useful features Inventor doesn't have (like tools to create rope/string-based mechanisms), and because universities use SolidWorks in Mechanical Engineering majors so I'd have to move sooner or later.
I'd very much appreciate it if you can give me some tips to why/why not move to SW.
