Overview

a9 CADViz is an advanced, on-premise data access solution for engineering and manufacturing organizations of all sizes and industries. It allows users to quickly find and view CAD parts and related data in virtually any format and stored in any and all application systems throughout an organization through a single, browser-based interface.

Users can search, analyze, view, annotate, mark up and retrieve 2D and 3D CAD files without the need to open any native application. a9 CADViz provides quick access to all parts and assemblies through a browser search which retrieves data from within simple file structures and application systems, such as PDM, PLM, ERP and ECM.

Work with virtually all CAD formats

a9 CADViz works with most CAD solutions including AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor, Pro/E, CATIA, NX, SolidWorks, STEP and IGES and many more. Since users can access CAD data without a consumer license, up- or down-stream users gain the ability to be productive without dependence on the designer/engineer, empowering teams to make decisions quickly, work more efficiently and avoid data duplication by comparing files before retrieving and editing.

Powerful search technology through a secure, flexible interface

Alcove9 search technology provides instant mapping of where-used and composed-of data for each CAD part or assembly returned in a search result. Through a unique saved search, this relationship data can be retrieved with one click, allowing users to find the most current, relevant parts and product data within seconds. Users can intuitively sort and filter relevant part information by various categories.

a9 CADViz works within the security parameters of the organization. No special configuration needed.
