Overall Satisfaction with Onshape

As an early-stage startup, our priorities are always time and ease of use. With many moving parts and hats to wear, we are burdened with too much work to handle and constantly shifting priorities. For these reasons, it is critical that our 3D modelling software simply works and creating partnerships with companies is not a hassle. The Onshape entrepreneur program ticked all of our boxes. We had a free account with Onshape for very sporadic use, but needed a more secure solution and a few extra features as our proprietary work began to take shape. Our team is more familiar with SOLIDWORKS, so we applied to the Dassault startup program. This process took more than a week, required an hour-long training call to learn, and within a few weeks we started having technical glitches causing huge issues. After spending many hours and delaying our work for more than a week, we gave up and turned back to Onshape. Within 24 hours of completing a 30-second form, the Onshape team had already upgraded our account to Premium, sent us an informational email on where to find further resources, and set up a call to help us understand their system functionality better. Not only were we surprised at how much simpler the software was, with better design traceability and ease-of-use features, but we have not been plagued with glitches either. A big thank you to the Onshape team!
  • Quick, easy, & friendly onboarding.
  • Design history traceability.
  • Clean & easy organizational structure.
  • Nothing so far
  • Decreased CAD time
Onshape's support team has been friendly and accommodating. They were extremely well-versed in the software, so when I had specific questions, they were able to provide practical and contextual answers. They also went out of their way to find a meeting time, as I am in Australia with some tight scheduling, so they worked outside of normal hours to make it happen.
Keep it this simple & easy!
