Enterprise Deployment & Access

Enterprise Deployment & Access

  • Rapid Onboarding — Cloud-native architecture lets teams deploy and onboard in days, not months, unlike legacy PLM systems with multi-month implementation cycles.

  • No infrastructure required — Fully accessible via modern web browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari) on any OS, plus a native Windows desktop app for heavy CAD workflows. No VPN, no on-prem servers, no IT burden.

  • Flexible hosting — Standard multi-tenant SaaS, with additional hosting options available for Enterprise customers.

  • Scalability & User Model — Per-seat model that scales from small teams of 5 to large multi-site engineering organizations.

  • Access Control — Granular role-based access control (RBAC) for internal teams and external suppliers, layered on top of SSO/SAML (Enterprise).

Supported CAD formats (view/open in Web & Desktop App)

Including but not limited to: SolidWorks (SLDPRT, SLDASM, SLDDRW), Inventor (IPT, IAM, IDW), Fusion 360, Siemens NX, CATIA, Creo/Pro-E, Rhino (3DM), AutoCAD (DWG, DXF), STEP, IGES, STL, OBJ, 3MF, and additional formats. CAD ROOMS is CAD-agnostic — it works with any combination of CAD tools, unlike vendor-locked solutions tied to a single ecosystem.

Why CAD ROOMS (vs. alternatives)

  • Multi-CAD support — unlike SolidWorks PDM or Sibe (SolidWorks-only), CAD ROOMS works across all major CAD platforms

  • PDM + PLM in one platform — version control, ECO management, release workflows, and audit trails in a single tool, not separate products

  • Unlimited free viewers — share designs with stakeholders, suppliers, and manufacturers at no extra cost

  • Advanced CAD diffing — visually compare version changes across parts and assemblies, a feature most cloud PDMs lack

  • Manufacturing-ready — built-in supplier collaboration, release management, and CAD format conversion for manufacturing workflows

  • No vendor lock-in — CAD-agnostic by design, so teams can switch or combine CAD tools freely
