Onshape: Cloud-Native CAD & PDM for Modern Product Design

Onshape is the first and only cloud-native product development platform that delivers professional-grade CAD capabilities with next-generation product data management (PDM), powering agile design processes at lower costs.

With Onshape, users can innovate quickly while simultaneously or asynchronously collaborating with other stakeholders on any web-connected device.

Without the limitations of a traditional file-based CAD check-in and check-out process, information can flow freely across your business keeping everyone in sync.

Onshape Government is a secure, cloud-native CAD and PDM solution tailored for U.S. government agencies, defense contractors, and organizations working with sensitive or regulated projects. Built on AWS GovCloud, Onshape Government helps customers meet ITAR and EAR compliance requirements, ensuring that your data is protected at the highest level. It offers real-time collaboration and advanced security controls, all while eliminating the need for complex IT infrastructure. With Onshape Government, teams can innovate quickly and securely without compromising on compliance.

The Onshape-Arena Connection enables information to flow freely to-and-from product development teams without the administration issues and costs associated with traditional CAD/PLM software integrations.

A single button in Onshape refreshes Arena’s PLM to the latest version of the product design, helping more teams across your business reliably and securely stay in sync.

With 1-click, users can instantly navigate between Bills of Materials (BOM) in Arena PLM and full 3D assemblies in Onshape CAD without waiting for files to be checked in or out.

Onshape’s AI Advisor provides contextual guidance directly within the CAD environment, helping engineers navigate workflows, understand features, and resolve issues without breaking focus. Instead of searching through documentation or interrupting teammates, users get relevant answers where and when they need them.

Because AI Advisor is integrated into Onshape’s cloud-native platform, it supports faster onboarding, greater productivity, and more consistent outcomes across teams.
