Managing the members in your 3DEXPERIENCE Tenant is a common task. As employees leave and new hires join the company, the Platform Administrator must control users’ access to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. New members are added, assigned appropriate Roles, and given access to a Collaborative Space. Members who no longer need access are removed. This blog will go through the settings to add, remove, and manage members in 3DEXPERIENCE.
On the much-anticipated SOLIDWORKS Delivery Day, we got a rundown of the new features introduced in the latest functional delivery for 2025. If "functional delivery" is new to you, this is the cloud-enabled version of your typical "service pack" release. Enhancements like automatic drawing generation, updates to the user interface, improved file sharing options, and much more. Let's dive in and unpack the key takeaways for your benefit!
The 3DEXPERIENCE platform is Dassault Systèmes' tool that brings the entire engineering and manufacturing workflow from conception to obsolescence under a single umbrella. The objective of the platform is to make the 3D model the source of truth for anything someone at a company needs to know or do about the product. This means there is a closed loop for every stage of product development. Specifications, concept models, prototypes, simulation results, manufacturing data, and so on are all linked to the same product model.
3DEXPERIENCE World 2025 has come to a close and what a week we had in Houston! Let’s recap some of the key messages and announcements we heard during this year’s event. 2025 is a significant year for SOLIDWORKS as it marks 30 years since its initial release. This milestone was a common theme throughout the week – celebrating SOLIDWORKS for where it has brought us and being excited about the growth and future of the CAD tool we know and love.
A common question I hear from 3DEXPERIENCE users is, “How can I see if a part or an assembly has any associated drawings?” Turns out there are many ways to get this information. In this blog, I’ll start with some simple methods and then move on to some that take a little more setup but are worth the effort.
If you’ve added a new license of SOLIDWORKS since July 1st, 2023, you’ve probably noticed that your SOLIDWORKS license also contains Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS. This license connects your SOLIDWORKS to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. A major benefit of the role is the ability to share SOLIDWORKS parts, assemblies, and drawings with other users without sharing the physical files or downloading large and complicated external software. The only requirement is a 3DEXPERIENCE ID login.
It is important to know what happens to SOLIDWORKS data when it is saved to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform or when it is updated for compatibility with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform as per the System Option > 3DEXPERIENCE Integration.
3DEXPERIENCE World 2025 is heading to Houston, TX, from February 23-26, and we are excited to be a part of it! As always, GoEngineer will host a Customer Appreciation Night and offer a variety of technical sessions led by our outstanding technical team. There will be many opportunities to learn, network, and have a great time. This guide will provide a brief preview of this year's event and give you a glimpse of what to expect.
When 3DEXPERIENCE users face connection issues while launching Design with SOLIDWORKS and SOLIDWORKS Connected, it is often due to a connection issue with the collaborative space. Common signs include blank login dialogs, blank MySession task pane, and specific error messages such as, ‘Unable to connect to 3DEXPERIENCE’ or ‘Failed to establish connection with 3DEXPERIENCE server.’ This article covers a few possible ways to resolve these connection issues.
