AutoCAD OEM

Growing your business starts by addressing market needs not served by existing solutions. When you see those opportunities, you need to move quickly to fill the market space and reap the rewards. Developing and selling plug-ins was a good first step for your business, but now you’re ready to drive revenue and margin growth by creating your own applications. AutoCAD OEM is a platform for rapidly building applications, and rapidly building your business.

Your starting point will be the world’s most proven CAD system. To make it your own, simply “hide” any unneeded AutoCAD functionality, add your unique value by adding plug-ins, and stamp the application with your own brand and look-and-feel. With the speed and efficiency of Tech Soft 3D solutions, you can successfully extend your reach by entering the software application business.
