SOLIDWORKS, a renowned leader in 3D design and engineering solutions, has taken a great step towards innovation & development by adding SOLIDWORKS with the cloud services (SOLIDWORKS Connected to the Cloud). In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, staying competitive and ahead can be achieved through upgrading to powerful technologies.
SOLIDWORKS with Cloud services is for design team and engineering managers who want to empower their teams with an intuitive and robust set of product design capabilities along with cloud-based collaboration and data management. Now users can access the latest product design information from a single, centralized, secure location on the cloud.
Everyone has transparent access to need-to-know information in real-time, helping customers collaborate and work more efficiently. Files can also be easily and instantly shared with anybody inside or outside the organization, such as customers, partners, suppliers, and anyone in your entire business ecosystem, by inviting them to the platform and granting them access to specific collaborative Space or by sharing the link for a particular file with restricted access to a specific user.
What are SOLIDWORKS Cloud Services?
As a result of the addition of SOLIDWORKS CAD data to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, users now have the option to manage design revisions formally, share and annotate 3D designs with anyone, and save and access designs securely. It is now available to current SOLIDWORKS users for a small cost in addition to being included with new SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD licenses as part of the subscription.
Why are these Cloud Services useful for SOLIDWORKS users?
Take design to the next level with enhanced 3D Sharing, Markup, Data Storage, Design Review and Collaboration Tools.
By reducing the friction caused by traditional design sharing and collaboration methods, cloud services help you prioritize design by streamlining daily processes. Users are given access to the following functionalities, which they can use at their speed, depending on the unique needs of their team, to achieve this.
- Share and Markup: Share your 3D designs directly from SOLIDWORKS with ANYONE, and they can add an annotation to the shared file in the platform and resend it back to the SOLIDWORKS User with Comments.
2. Store and Revise: – Cloud-based solution built with CAD relationships and collaboration in mind, which will keep track of your file and with revision comments on the file.
3. Manage and Approval: Access to all tools needed to manage data, complete formal change actions and approvals, and oversee project responsibilities.
Cloud Data Management Benefits
- Cloud data management will remove the need for backups or separate costly IT infrastructure (network drive, server, maintenance Backup, etc.)
- Enables secure cloud-based collaboration when working with remote teams. Users can access their data 24/7, anywhere and from any device with proper credentials.
- Having control over sensitive data is vital to any company, and data management enables complete visibility and control over the data by the admin.
- Data management reduces the risk of errors and miscommunication; everyone on the team works with the latest data for an efficient engineering workflow and final product manufacturing.
- Cloud data management offers many advanced security features that ensure data is securely stored and managed.
- Quick data recovery is in place for all kinds of emergency scenarios — from natural disasters to power outages.
- Manage the lifecycle of any content, such as CAD data, simulation models and documentation across disciplines and CAD applications.
SOLIDWORKS with Cloud services can be a significant development in the product development process of your business in the competitive world of engineering and design. This innovative integration empowers businesses to streamline their operations, enhance collaboration, and boost productivity like never before. This solution not only accelerates product development but also facilitates real-time collaboration among dispersed teams, reducing time-to-market and improving overall efficiency.
