We are in an age where technology is changing faster than we can consume it, this can make it difficult to keep up with the latest and greatest in the CAD market and you may not be aware that your CAD platform could be limiting your design and document workflows.
With the ever changing landscape of CAD solutions we see many companies are making the switch to SOLIDWORKS. Here are the common questions we hear from companies that are re-evaluating their current 3D design solution:
Software Licencing
“We feel like our CAD provider is bullying us into a software as a service (SaaS) subscription license model!”
With most of the industry switching to a software as a service (Saas) model, SOLIDWORKS is dedicated to giving you the choice of the best solution that suits your needs. SOLIDWORKS provides both Perpetual licensing for a permanent license that you own, as well as Term licensing if you only need to bring on a temporary or co-op employee for a specific short-term job or project. We pride ourselves on leaving the choice in your hands instead of forcing you to comply.
Market share and Education
“It’s difficult to find employees that know our CAD Platform”
SOLIDWORKS is taught in almost every post-secondary institution in Canada, this makes it easy to find talent that is already up to speed on the platform. Javelin Technologies is the preferred SOLIDWORKS educational reseller in Canada and supports over 125 education facilities across the country and can help connect you with skilled graduates.
SOLIDWORKS is the most used CAD Solution on the professional market today, which means there are more potential employees who are proficient with SOLIDWORKS than any other 3D CAD system.
