MCAD Europe 2007 now available to order.

A dynamic reshaping market.

Almost entering “its forties”, the MCAD market, still the biggest segment of the PLM market, is particularly dynamic. Growing at a 7% annual rate, the market is pushed both from the top, through process-oriented implementation strategies, and from the bottom through the continuous 2D to 3D migrations. The mid range segment is growing at +25%, in line with our last year’s forecast, getting closer to the value of the High-end segment which is decreasing at the same time (- 2%). This report provides vendor rankings under different criteria and discusses the trends and the factors enabling them. .

NOTE: In this chart, Solidworks and Solid Edge numbers have been extracted out of Dassault Systemes and UGS numbers.
