About the SOLIDWORKS Beta Program
During the Beta program, you are under a Non-disclosure Agreement (NDA) and cannot share any information about the SOLIDWORKS® Beta products outside of the SOLIDWORKS Beta community.
The SOLIDWORKS Beta Program gives subscription customers and channel partners early access to the next major release of SOLIDWORKS. You can collaborate with the SOLIDWORKS R&D team to ensure that this release provides the quality, performance, and user experience that you expect.
Subscription customers have exclusive access to:
- Test-drive new and enhanced features, and explore the latest release of SOLIDWORKS.
- Connect with the global SOLIDWORKS Beta Community, and learn about R&D insights on key projects.
- Share feedback with the SOLIDWORKS Beta and R&D teams. Do not hold back. We want to know about your software defects, criticisms, and pain points!
Your testing during the Beta program helps you prepare for a smooth upgrade and migration to the next production release for your specific environment, data, and workflows.
We appreciate the valuable time that you invest into testing the SOLIDWORKS Beta products.
