“We are delighted to welcome The SolidExperts to the DriveWorks Reseller Community,” said Maria Sarkar, co-founder of DriveWorks. “With DriveWorksXpress incorporated into every new seat of SOLIDWORKS, the addition of The SolidExperts to our growing list of resellers makes perfect sense.”
Two products from solidThinking are also being sold and supported by The SolidExperts team. The first product, solidThinking Inspire, enables design engineers, product designers, and architects to create and investigate structurally efficient concepts quickly and easily. The software works with existing CAD tools to help design structural parts right the first time, reducing costs, development time, material consumption, and product weight. The second product, solidThinking Evolve, allows industrial designers to develop forms faster by enabling the user to capture an initial sketch, explore styling alternatives, and visualize products with realistic renderings generated in real time. The solidThinking Evolve software frees designers from the constraints of engineering-oriented CAD tools, while allowing the export of digital models required by others in the product development process.
“We are thrilled to have The SolidExperts join our global team of partners said Shaun Kroeger, director – partner sales at solidThinking. “We are confident that The SolidExperts will be an integral player in continuing the momentum that solidThinking has built over the last three years. We are happy to welcome them to the solidThinking community.”
