What cannot be ignored is the impact that SolidWorks has had on the design and engineering community over the last several years

GrabCAD.com is a design services website focused on connecting manufacturing and product development companies with CAD designers and engineers around the world.

While we must admit a little skepticism about GrabCAD's business model because our customers prove day-in and day-out the value of completing design, engineering and manufacturing in-house, particularly because of the tremendous advances in ease-of-use, software and computer hardware costs that SolidWorks and Mastercam bring to our customers, what cannot be ignored is the impact that SolidWorks has had on the design and engineering community over the last several years.

In a recent article available at SolidSmack.com, a SolidWorks and CAD focused blog run by Josh Mings, SolidSmack and GrabCAD highlight the popularity of SolidWorks. You see one of the unique features GrabCAD makes available is a free CAD library of models to download.

In a very short time over 100,000 files have been downloaded from GrabCAD.com and of those models over 50% are SolidWorks models completely eclipsing downloads of Pro/E, Inventor and even AutoCAD files combined.

Now MLC CAD Systems is well aware of SolidWorks global presence as we have thousands of customers who are using SolidWorks world-wide throughout their organizations, but for those who might doubt SolidWorks penetration world-wide GrabCAD independently confirms what our data shows.
