What is Onshape?

Onshape is a cloud-native CAD and PDM system that helps engineers, designers, manufacturers, students, and startups create products from anywhere. The platform runs on web browsers and mobile devices, allowing users to access professional CAD tools without installations, upgrades, or specialized hardware. It combines mechanical design, built-in product data management, real-time collaboration, branching, merging, version control, and secure cloud storage in one connected environment. Onshape is designed to solve many problems associated with desktop CAD, including crashes, corrupted files, outdated software, local file failures, and version conflicts. Its integrated PDM system gives teams a more efficient way to manage design data without relying on separate file-based workflows. Distributed teams can collaborate instantly and securely across locations without emailing files, creating duplicate copies, or waiting for manual check-ins. The platform captures every design change in a complete audit trail, giving users transparency, accountability, and the ability to roll back work when needed. Onshape updates automatically every few weeks, so teams always work on the latest version without downtime or IT disruption. The Onshape Altium Connector helps ECAD and MCAD teams exchange data through a bi-directional cloud link, improving collaboration between electronics and mechanical design workflows. Onshape offers options for professionals, enterprises, students, educators, hobbyists, and startups, making it adaptable to different design environments and budgets. With cloud reliability, built-in collaboration, mobile access, and modern data management, Onshape helps product teams move faster and reduce friction throughout the design process.

What is Kenesto?

Kenesto is a cloud storage solution tailored for managing documents related to engineering, design, and construction. It provides a cost-effective alternative to traditional enterprise PDM software, featuring automatic file locking, version control, and vaulting capabilities, along with advanced 2D/3D viewing and web-based design review tools that are absent in standard consumer cloud platforms such as Dropbox and Google Drive. This system functions like a mounted drive within the customer's office environment, ensuring a centralized and reliable source of data in the cloud. By implementing file locking mechanisms, it effectively prevents users from inadvertently overwriting each other’s work. Additionally, all files are preserved indefinitely, offering peace of mind regarding data longevity. The interface mimics the familiar layout of Windows Explorer, allowing users to organize files and folders just like they would on their local C Drive. Kenesto also facilitates workflow management and task assignments, and it offers a complimentary SolidWorks plugin for enhanced usability. Furthermore, every file is encrypted and securely stored in AWS S3, ensuring robust data protection and compliance. This comprehensive solution not only enhances collaborative efforts but also streamlines the overall document management process within engineering and construction teams.
