A faster, simpler alternative to Windchill

A faster, simpler alternative to Windchill

Windchill delivers powerful PLM — but it comes with complexity, heavy IT dependencies, and long deployment cycles.
CAD ROOMS offers the same trusted control, simplified for the cloud — modern, modular, and instantly ready for your team.

Start in hours, not months.

Windchill implementations can take weeks or even quarters.

CAD ROOMS runs in the browser, connects instantly with existing tools, and scales at the pace your projects move.

Built for distributed engineering.

Windchill was designed for centralized, on-premise teams.

CAD ROOMS enables real-time collaboration across locations — no VPNs, no local servers, no costly upgrades.


Trust, built-in.

Security shouldn’t depend on servers or IT teams.


CAD ROOMS encrypts every project by default, supports ISO 27001 compliance, and gives full control over where data is hosted — without the maintenance of legacy infrastructure.

"For us—who work under tight deadlines, constant iterations, and countless hours—having a tool that keeps us connected and aligned makes an enormous difference."

MAD Formula
