About

BeamWise is a set of software tools and related services for the design of biophotonic and other complex optical systems. It is implemented using Design++, a knowledge-based engineering platform that simplifies the capture of in-house engineering expertise and streamlines the integration of legacy systems into design automation and product configuration solutions. BeamWise fills the gap between the optical and mechanical worlds by augmenting CAD tools like AutoCAD and SolidWorks with design rules and a component library, ensuring that beam alignment is maintained as design changes propagate through the system. This design automation system addresses significant challenges in optical system design, such as costly prototype iterations, time-consuming design documentation, and poor predictability of instrument performance, by automating the creation of 3D CAD models and design documentation, including drawings and parts lists.

About

Sibe is a cloud-native CAD Document Management and 3D collaboration platform built to help small and medium-sized mechanical engineering teams, especially those using SolidWorks CAD software, manage, share, review, and control complex design data and workflows without traditional servers, VPNs, or heavy IT overhead. It delivers version control, check-in/check-out, revision and approval workflows, and file history tracking directly from a native SolidWorks add-in, letting engineers maintain concurrent design work and avoid accidental overwrites while keeping a clear audit trail of changes. Sibe’s browser-based interface lets users and external stakeholders view, comment on, and annotate 3D models and 2D drawings from any device without installing CAD tools, and it supports secure external sharing with controlled access and unlimited free web visitors so partners can review designs without special software.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Sibe makes CAD file management much easier with cloud-based version control, SolidWorks integration, and secure collaboration between engineering teams.
  • Sibe gives our team a convenient way to manage CAD files, track revisions, share 3D designs, and collaborate without maintaining traditional PDM servers.
  • The combination of cloud storage, SolidWorks integration, revision tracking, and 3D collaboration gives our designers a much more streamlined way to manage engineering projects.
  • Sibe provides reliable CAD data management, secure file sharing, version control, and browser-based 3D collaboration that helps our engineering and manufacturing teams stay aligned.
  • The platform is easy to learn, the interface is modern, and the cloud-based workflow is convenient. It has been especially useful for keeping everyone aligned on current design files.

Cons

  • Some advanced workflow customization could be expanded, especially for larger engineering departments with more complex approval processes.
  • New administrators may need some time to understand permissions and configure workflows properly for larger or more structured engineering teams.
  • The initial setup requires some planning, particularly when defining user permissions, document structures, and approval workflows across multiple departments.
  • Teams coming from mature enterprise PDM platforms may want additional advanced automation and customization options for highly complex processes.
  • Larger and more complex organizations may need additional customization.
