Onshape helps businesses modernise their product design process.
Accelerates Time-to-Market
Simultaneous editing, built-in collaboration tools and real-time design reviews allow teams to explore multiple design iterations in parallel and instantly share product specs and design changes with partners.
Zero IT Footprint
Onshape requires no downloads, installs, or license codes and runs in a web browser on a Mac, PC, Chromebook or Linux computer. Frees your IT team from CAD and PDM maintenance, letting engineers spend more time designing and less time dealing with software issues.
Risk Mitigation and IP Protection
Database-driven architecture eliminates the risk of unauthorized duplication, data breaches, or even accidental sharing. Strict role-based access control keeps your design data secure at all times.
Real-Time Data Management
Onshape is the only product development platform that includes real-time data management and up-to-the-minute analytics and reporting tools. Whenever any team member makes a design change, everyone else on the team instantly sees it. A comprehensive Edit History tracks who made what change and when, allowing you to revert to any prior state of the design. Share latest product designs with manufacturing, sales and marketing teams with a built-in simplified CAD viewer.
Benefits of Onshape over file-based CAD systems
Advanced collaboration
Collaborate like you’ve never done before with the ability to work on the same design simultaneously with other stakeholders. Onshape delivers capabilities such as follow mode, live commenting and sharing, making it easy to collaborate and get your product to market faster.
Integrated data management
Eliminate the hassle and costs associated with PDM systems needed to manage version control nightmares. With Onshape, design engineers get integrated data management with capabilities such as branching and merging, version control, release and “forever undo,” enabling them to fearlessly explore design concepts or easily revert design changes.
Real-time analytics
Built with engineering managers in mind, Onshape delivers analytical insights that enable leaders to monitor, audit and optimise their design activities. With the easy-to-read tables and charts, managers have real-time access to critical design insights such as IP tracking, release status, approval history, total hours on projects and much more.
Improved Security
Onshape was built from the ground up with data security as the top priority, leveraging the AWS infrastructure to ensure a highly performant, scalable and secure cloud deployment – as well as SOC2 Type II certification. Onshape allows use of two-factor authentication (2FA) to protect account access, while also encrypting all traffic to Onshape servers, as well as data within its databases.
