I've personally used it for many years now and have several associates that also have had good luck with it. It does have many "hidden" functions that can cause some problems when getting acquainted with the system.
Anything specific that seems to give you trouble ?
The best way to learn how to use CATIA is by taking a class. Find a company that is certified. Have their instructor come to your shop and teach you and your coworkers how to use the workbench based on the type of parts you work with. The inital cost will pay for itself in time and confidence.
