When it comes time to upgrade to SOLIDWORKS 2018, figuring out where to start might leave you with some questions. Let us help you answer those questions and ease the transition to SOLIDWORKS 2018. Below are some of our best resources to make that happen included current FAQs to a complete upgrade guide for users. 

FAQ’s

New upgrades generate many question for users. To combat and answer those questions, every year TriMech compiles a list of FAQs specifically for the installation process.  Our engineers run multiple scenarios with installation to create easy to follow FAQs including screenshots of the process itself. These FAQs will help you avoid common pitfalls as well as point out the changes from previous versions. So whether you are doing a Standalone upgrade for one client or a Network upgrade on an entire group of SOLIDWORKS products, the FAQs are tailored to your needs, answering all your potential questions.

Webinar

Still have questions or just want more than screenshots, a live demonstration might appeal to you. Join our webinar on February 15th at 10:00 am EST as we cover the Best Practices for a Smooth 2018 Upgrade. Here, we will cover topics including:
