A Preview of SolidWorks World 2012

February 24, 2012

The New Year has brought with it a whole new season of conventions and exhibitions.  Thousands of people are flocking to San Diegothis February to attend SolidWorks World (SWW) 2012. Oleg Shilovitsky of Beyond PLM is one of those attendees and he took to his blog to discuss SolidWorks and PLM Story.

Exhibitors and partners at SWWare classified into four categories:   Data Management, PDM, PLM, Data Interoperability.  The PLMcategory is a bit thin with only two partners listed – Dassault System and Kenesto.  They are also listed in the PDM category along with seven other companies, including MechWorks, SofTech, Inc. and  SolidPartners, Inc..  As for the data management category, there are six exhibitors listed. Shilovitsky says:

“Separately, you need to take a look on companies providing consulting and implementation services in the manufacturing domain. At the same time, these companies are selling software they develop. In many cases, it is hard to differentiate between software and services they sell. Here is the list of companies from the list of presenters associated with PLM: Datafrond, Infotech Enterprises, Razorleaf Corporation, Zero Wait-State.”

It seems that there are a lot of strong companies at SWWthis year.  Shilovitsky mentions his company, Inforbix, that has revolutionized the way companies find, share and re-use data. Though not listed as a data management exhibitor this year, we would not be surprised if they show up on the list in 2013.  We also look forward to Shilovitsky review ofSWW in the upcoming weeks.
