Onshape PDM from SOLIDWORKS

Webinar, CAD & Simulation

PDM SOLIDWORKS is a data management tool that helps manage and organize data related to design and engineering projects. On the other hand, Onshape PDM is a cloud-based solution that provides design and data management capabilities in a Software as a Service (SaaS) model.

Some of the key differences between PDM SOLIDWORKS and Onshape PDM include:

  • Accessibility: PDM SOLIDWORKS is a desktop application, while Onshape PDM is a cloud-based platform accessible from anywhere with an internet connection.
  • Collaboration: Onshape PDM offers real-time collaboration and version control, allowing multiple users to work on the same project simultaneously. PDM SOLIDWORKS has limited collaboration capabilities, as it requires users to check out and check in files.
  • Cost: Onshape PDM is a subscription-based service, while PDM SOLIDWORKS requires a one-time license purchase and ongoing maintenance costs.
  • User Interface: Onshape PDM has a modern, intuitive user interface, while PDM SOLIDWORKS has a more traditional user interface that may require more training to use effectively.
