Onshape

What is Onshape?

Onshape is a complete all-in-one product development platform.

The Onshape platform connects all parties to a unified, secure cloud workspace, allowing your product development team to spend more time designing and less time being blocked by file-based software headaches.

Accelerate time-to-market

With the rapid pace of technological innovation, it's no surprise that the speed of market launch usually wins. Onshape is a single product development platform that can be deployed instantly on any computer or mobile device, allowing teams to work together globally and quickly. Teams can choose design alternatives together or independently of each other, without affecting each other's work. Because real-time design reviews, comments and simultaneous editing enable a collaborative workflow where multiple project iterations can be completed in parallel and, when consolidated, the best elements can be combined in the final project.

Zero IT Footprint

Onshape does not require downloads, installations, or license codes. You can access an Onshape cloud-based platform with any modern browser from your Mac, PC, Chromebook, or Linux computer. Administrators CAN provision and deprovision Seats instantly to scale THEIR Project Team and meet Changing Business Needs. Integrated Version Control Eliminates the need for PDM Systems with Dedicated Servers and Network Infrastructure, Software Updates, and Licensing. Onshape frees your IT team from CAD and PDM maintenance and empowers your engineers to spend more time designing and less time dealing with software issues, locked files, and incompatible file types.

Risk mitigation and IP protection

With traditional file-based CAD, your product designs and intellectual property are subject to unauthorized duplication, data breach, or even accidental sharing. Onshape's database-based architecture eliminates these types of security risks. There are no files to copy or manage. Projects are stored and monitored with a full version history, allowing you to audit or roll back as needed. Strict, role-based access control keeps project data protected at all times. Each designer, engineer, contractor, or supplier in the product design lifecycle receives the specific rights.

Eliminate Silos

Onshape is the only product development platform that includes real-time data management. When a team member anywhere in the world makes a design change, everyone else sees it instantly. Integrated versioning significantly reduces costly manufacturing errors. Distributed teams can simultaneously explore alternative design ideas and converge to the best solution. A simplified CAD viewer mode allows your sales team to demonstrate the latest product designs to customers, share models with vendors for previous quotes, or submit initial prototypes to your marketing department. Up-to-date reporting and analytics tools provide greater transparency for project stakeholders and enable easier project management.
