With myCADsuite Starter, analyze your SOLIDWORKS data, identify the bottlenecks holding your teams back, and walk away with a prioritized action plan. There’s no obligation, and your files remain intact.
Is Your CAD Data in Good Shape?
With myCADsuite Starter, analyze your SOLIDWORKS data, identify the bottlenecks holding your teams back, and walk away with a prioritized action plan. The first step in a suite designed to boost engineering department performance.
What is myCADsuite?
myCADsuite is the Visiativ suite designed for engineering firms that use SOLIDWORKS. It helps your teams ensure the reliability of their CAD data, design faster, and share product data beyond the engineering department.It’s deployed gradually, at a pace that matches your level of maturity: you start by measuring, then improve, connect, and manage.
What Holds Back a Design Firm Lies Hidden in Its CAD Data
Over time, files pile up, naming conventions vary from one designer to another, and the links between parts, assemblies, and drawings become fragile. These issues remain invisible until they are measured.
Which is the correct version? Duplicate files and references complicate searches, lead to multiple versions, and increase the risk of manufacturing errors.
Unreliable bills of materials Missing or inconsistently entered properties: the data that feeds bills of materials, title blocks, and exchanges with other departments loses its reliability.
Broken links Heterogeneous file structures and fragile file paths lead to lost references, incomplete assemblies, and costly rework.
The myCADsuite Starter diagnostic tool is a standalone application. It analyzes a subset of your SOLIDWORKS data and identifies bottlenecks without making any changes to your files.
No commitment required
Select the SOLIDWORKS data set to be analyzed. The diagnostic tool reads your files; it does not modify them.
You’ll get: a data set ready for analysis
The automated analysis calculates an overall score and scrutinizes your data for duplicates, properties, structures and assemblies, configurations, versions, and paths.
You get: a score and your areas of concern
Each pain point becomes a prioritized step (critical, important), broken down into sub-steps and processed in batches with myCADtools.
The result: a concrete roadmap
You decide what to do next: proceed on your own with the myCADsuite modules or get support from a Visiativ expert.
It’s up to you: no prior commitment required
An action plan that fixes your files—not just a note
Each step is processed in batches using myCADtools: your corrections are applied in just a few clicks.
Duplicates resolved in bulk
Standardized properties
Naming according to your rules
Every step documented
