About

Onshape is a cloud-native CAD and PDM system designed to help product development teams design, collaborate, and manage data from any device. It runs in a browser or mobile app, eliminating the need for installations, upgrades, or local hardware requirements. The platform includes professional CAD tools, built-in product data management, real-time collaboration, branching and merging, version control, and a complete audit trail. Onshape helps teams avoid common desktop CAD issues such as crashes, corrupted files, file syncing problems, and outdated software versions. It supports distributed engineering teams by allowing users to work securely from different locations without emailing files or managing duplicate copies. With frequent updates, education options, startup programs, and integrations such as the Onshape Altium Connector, Onshape gives designers and manufacturers a modern way to build products faster.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to learn. Basic modeling is okay. Surface modeling is included but not worthy to touch. Basic assemblies is okay. Complex modeling (More than 300 parts) will slow down your system and crashes are to expect.

Cons

  • Support denies bugs and will first blame the user. 1.400 Euro instead of the "one time price of 169 USD" stated on this website. Outdated Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing and for that reason not according the ISO standard. Hidden bugs. For example (may 2021) when assigning materials ones from your own library and then again from the Alibre library, your whole part naming in your assembly will be corrupt. And yes, support denies and is not helping here.
