CAD ROOMS works with every major format — letting mechanical, electrical, and simulation data live together without conversion headaches.

Collaboration without the lag.

Onshape’s shared models can slow under load or limit large-team workflows.

CAD ROOMS keeps reviews and change tracking responsive, even on complex assemblies — no delays, no viewer bottlenecks, no sync issues.

Interoperability without boundaries.

Onshape works best inside its own CAD environment.

CAD ROOMS supports every major CAD format, letting mechanical, electrical, and manufacturing teams review, compare, and iterate together in one workspace.

Scale without friction

Storage and workflows that grow with you.

Instead of fixed plans or license-tier limits, CAD ROOMS scales seamlessly with your data and team size — flexible storage, regional hosting, and optional on-prem deployment built in
