TriStar Launches Online User Community
 PHOENIX,
AZ, Jul 1, 2009 - TriStar Inc. announced today the public launch of TriStar
Commons, a comprehensive user-directed professional networking site designed
to support PTC software users and the product development industry as a
whole.

TriStar developed the site to serve as an epicenter for hard-to-find
expert blogs, forums, virtual user groups and industry news. Here, users can
come for community and interaction with other CAD/CAM professionals and get
expert advice from TriStar’s engineering and manufacturing specialists. The
site also includes a library of TriStar’s Pro/ENGINEER, Windchill, and
MathCAD webcast recordings, and a collection of whitepapers.
“What we are seeking to do is combine information, resources, and most
importantly, human interaction into an accessible, centralized location,”
said Patrick Maderia, president of TriStar. “We feel that there is a lacking
presence of these resources for the CAD/CAM industry, and they certainly are
not found in the same spot. We didn’t want this to be a one-sided
informational site, but rather to encourage the free-flow of ideas from all
sides.”
Registration is not required to view most of the information in the
community, but in order to participate in the interactive features of the
site users must register and log in. Unlike with other industry community
sites, TriStar Commons members have an equal voice; in addition to access to
the blogs and groups managed by TriStar, registered users can set up their
own blogs and even start public or private discussion groups.
Maderia continued, “One of our main goals recently has been to provide
better all-around support for our customers. This community also makes our
entire engineering team more accessible, allowing better day-to-day
interaction with our customers.”
The community is located at
