Computer Program for Polyhedral Manifolds

Suppose I have a 3-manifold obtained via face identifications of a polyhedron (e.g. the Poincaré sphere presented as a dodecahedron with opposite faces glued). Is there a program that exists for easily working with such manifolds? The only thing I really know how to do is to make a triangulation in Regina, but I'd like to avoid having to input a triangulation with an unholy number of simplices, if possible.
