Onshape

Onshape is a fully cloud-native, browser-based CAD platform that revolutionized collaboration with its real-time, multi-user editing and built-in product data management (PDM). Every action is versioned, enabling seamless teamwork akin to Google Docs for CAD. It offers robust parametric and direct modeling, drawing, and simulation. Now owned by PTC, it operates on a freemium model with a free plan for hobbyists and paid plans for professionals.

Its modern architecture, eliminating file management and enabling access anywhere, scores highly for distributed teams, startups, and educators seeking a future-forward collaborative design environment.
