FAQ
What CAD do you work with?
We have plugins for SolidWorks, Catia, Onshape, Creo, Siemens NX, and Inventor, so you can work with Upchain without even leaving your CAD program. We also have integrations more than 20 CAD programs, including EPLAN, AutoCAD electrical, and Promis.e that lets you import CAD data and add it to your BOM.
How long does it take to get started?
We can be up and running in just a few days, and most implementation and onboarding are done within a week.
What’s the largest assembly I can put into the system?
We don’t have a limit. Some of our clients are making products that have incredibly complex assemblies with millions of parts.
Can people outside my company see my data?
No. However, you can share your data with external parties if you want (e.g. sharing with a key supplier). We have granular user permissions that let you restrict what users see, what they can do, and let you revoke their access at any time for complete data control.
Do you manage engineering changes?
Engineering change requests can grind production to a halt. We have out of the box templates to get you started and can configure them to suit your existing workflows if needed.
“We know what’s changing and what’s happening. [Upchain’s] allowed us to R&D better and more efficiently.”
