SOLIDWORKS Hosted as a Service Advantages
This option gives you the same desktop software you know and love but in a hosted environment that has been tested and secured to ensure your data is safe. You also have the ability to collaborate online via SOLIDWORKS PDM to ensure that there is no confusion about which data file is accurate.
SOLIDWORKS Hosted as a Service Bundles and Options

You get the desktop software plus the ability to add administrative services that remove the burden of managing software updates. You can also bring cloud-hosted PDM into the mix to improve team collaboration regarding product design files.
What are the advantages of moving Product Development to the Cloud
The cloud has changed everything for product development. Gone are the days when you had to install software on your own hardware and manage the entire process yourself. With the cloud, you can access your product development tools from anywhere in the world. You can also share your products with team members without worrying about maintaining separate installations. This saves you time and money and puts more computing in your team’s hands for better workflows. You also get the following advantages:
- Automatic Updates: The cloud lets you update your product development tools without worrying about installing them yourself.
- Scalability: Cloud PDM can handle an unlimited number of users and projects.
- Built-in Data Management: It offers built-in tools for managing data and projects.
- Product and Project Management: The cloud offers comprehensive product and project management tools.
- Collaboration: Both 3DEXPERIENCE and SOLIDWORKS hosted as a service enable you to collaborate with team members from anywhere in the world.
The list above isn’t comprehensive, but it is a good list to help you decide.
