This blog can give you some ideas about what is announced in addition to the name change. The new package is an instant addition to Fusion 360. Such a strategy provides tons of advantages by allowing it to provide a strong data foundation for design data and a broad range of interfaces to expand solutions with SaaS applications providing specialized solutions for solving specific business problems.Įarlier today, I found out that Autodesk is announcing what seems to be the next step for Autodesk PLM and it will play PLM under the Autodesk Fusion 360 umbrella as Autodesk Fusion 360 Manage. On one hand, it's great that they have finally given CAD a modern look.Īutodesk made a switch from providing isolated PLM applications to a broad vision of data management to support design data. However, I think the engineers/designers working on Fusion 360 need to be careful with where they're taking it. Fusion 360's UI is by far better than any other CAD program on the market. It combines industrial and mechanical design, simulation, collaboration, and machining in a single package. In my blog last year – Autodesk Data Management and PLM transformation, I shared what seemed to be another update PLM journey for Autodesk – not an app, but a data management framework.Ĭheck out what our authors are creating with Fusion 360! Fusion 360 is a cloud-based 3D CAD, CAM, and CAE platform (made by Autodesk) for product development. It has been a long journey for Autodesk PLM. Check my old blogs – My first take on Autodesk PLM 360 and Autodesk, Cloud, and PLM. See additional pricing details below.Īutodesk was one of the first large vendors to announce the “cloud PLM” option back in 2011.
