Cloud-connected Data Benefits All

SOLIDWORKS Collaborative Designer animation

The Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS® role connects SOLIDWORKS CAD to the 3DEXPERIENCE® platform, making real-time data easily accessible to everyone on the design team. By connecting design work to the cloud, designers can continue to use the SOLIDWORKS CAD they know and love, while collaborating in real time to instantly leverage the expertise of their team, resulting in faster, more accurate product development. Data is right at their fingertips anytime, on any internet-enabled device.
