Solid Edge from Siemens Digital Industries Software is cloud-ready professional CAD software for 2D and 3D designs and offers all the functions for your design tasks in draft, part and assembly.
Widely used, especially in mechanical and plant engineering, Solid Edge impresses in particular with its intuitive operation, flexibility in modeling and its outstanding sheet metal module.
Furthermore, this program uses the special synchronous technology and thus one has the advantages of direct modeling as well as history-based parametrics in a CAD system.
However, Solid Edge is one of those CAD systems that was developed directly for Windows and was not adopted as a port from another platform.
Because of this, it usually cannot be used on macOS and Linux!
However, it managed to run on Linux, but some things still don't work like on Windows.
