Increasingly, transitioning to the cloud is becoming the new norm. Today, there are a number of pain points that push for this transition. For example cloud hosting provides better backup solutions, out of office collaboration, outsourced maintenance and/or outsourced work. Whichever situation you find yourself in today, we are here to help! Of course, SOLIDWORKS PDM needs to be installed on a Windows Server Environment and that has always been associated with ON PREMISE. However, let me debunk that myth […]
Issue Management on the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. We’re getting ready to release our new drone design. We gave it new propellers, improved the design of the body, and installed a better battery. Things are going great, but we’ve got a few issues to fix. I put a comment on the markup and shoot the engineer an email to request the changes. After a week, it doesn’t look like anything’s changed. When I ask what’s going on, my engineer tells […]
3D Compass – 3DEXPERIENCE
3DEXPERIENCE – 3D Compass How do you enter your house today? If I had to guess, I would say its through the front door! In this context, that is exactly what the 3D Compass is – a gateway to everything in 3DEXPERIENCE. It houses information relevant to each user as well as their available applications. Take a look at a snip of a freshly created 3DExperience dashboard: It’s empty and will remain so until we populate it with applications we […]
Collaborative Industry Innovator – 3DEXPERIENCE
3DEXPERIENCE – Collaborative Industry Innovator The 3DEXPERIENCE platform is an innovative cloud solution that grows with you. It’s governed by roles and apps. Additionally, each additional role gives you access to several apps. Therefore, purchasing additional roles adds more capability to your system. Of course, like any other data management system, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform has its base requirements. Last time we spoke, we talked about one of the basic roles on the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, the Collaborative Business Innovator Role. This […]
Collaborative Business Innovator – 3DEXPERIENCE
Collaborative Business Innovator on the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform The 3DEXPERIENCE Platform is a vast 3D ecosystem of roles and apps designed to make you more productive. However, there are a couple of foundational roles. Let’s start with the most basic role you can get – the Collaborative Business Innovator role. This foundational role allows anyone in the company to contribute on collective innovation. All of this is nice but, really, how does the Collaborative Business Innovator role help me be more […]
ENOVIA – Compare – 3DExperience Platform
The 3DExperience platform has hundreds of different applications we could write about. With every release, it becomes increasingly hard to pick a specific topic to drill down into. Recently, we discussed what the platform is and what it does. This time around, we are diving deeper into an existing comparison tool which is often overlooked. ENOVIA’s “Compare”, inside the 3DExperience platform allows users to differentiate two distinct versions of a certain file. For instance, how do we determine the difference […]
12 Days of InFlow – 3DExperience Platform
Introduction to the 3DExperience Platform On my last blog of the series and closer than ever to Christmas, I’ve decided to focus on the foundation of the 3DExperience Platform. There are hundreds of different things we can discuss. However, understanding the fundamentals of the platform is key before we start elaborating on its different tools. Most of the 3DExperience capabilities were derived from ENOVIA, a high end product life-cycle management solution offered by Dassault Systèmes. This cloud enabled collaboration will […]
12 days of InFlow – 3DExperience Swym Communities
Christmas is right around the corner and what better way to celebrate other than talk about 3DExperience?! Santa is hard at work getting ready for the season and using a 3DSwym community may help him tremendously. Earlier this week, we introduced the 3DExperience SOLIDWORKS add in. This time around, we will elaborate on communities and their benefits inside the platform. 1. Collaboration Over the past several months, InFlow Technology has been working towards learning and growing its 3DExperience portfolio. From […]
3DExperience Add-In to SOLIDWORKS 2020
This holiday season, InFlow decided to post daily updates on a snapshot of our daily operations. With that in mind I decided to create a post detailing the new 3DExperience platform add-in to SOLIDWORKS 2020. Today, the internet of things is driving us towards extremely connected systems. As such, using a disconnected storage solution is outdated. In order to bridge the gap between the status quo and high-end PLM solutions, SOLIDWORKS has created the 3DExperience platform. The platform leverages existing […]
Comparing SOLIDWORKS PDM and SOLIDWORKS Manage
SOLIDWORKS PDM has been on the market for a number of years now; its capabilities and functionalities are well known throughout the globe. But what about SOLIDWORKS Manage? Do you know what it is, what it does, or how it can help bridge some functionality gaps in existing systems? Let’s briefly compare SOLIDWORKS PDM and SOLIDWORKS Manage. Today, SOLIDWORKS PDM is a powerful data management solution for most of our customers. However, if you are looking for added capability such […]
