Customer comments about this training course

"At Tigercat we spent a long time looking for a solution to make data management easier for designers but at the same time give everyone
at our different locations access to the same data. SolidWorks Enterprise PDM's multi-site data replication is excellent and is working well for our large number of users. Javelin Technologies has been very knowledgeable and helpful during our evaluation and implementation"
