Cloud Hosted PDM Provider EpiGrid Signs SolidWorks Reseller Cimquest to Partner Network for Enhanced Implementations
SolidWorks reseller Cimquest has partnered with EpiGrid, LLC, creator of the first ever private hosted solution for PDM, to boost the affordability and simplify the process of EPDM implementations for their customers.
The EpiGrid Solution is an approach to implementation that makes Enterprise attainable and affordable through scalable delivery of hosted architecture and support, and a proprietary vault configuration. As a Partner, Cimquest Inc can offer their customers a cloud-based solution that will lower IT costs and enhance ongoing admin support and training services.
"We’re excited to add Cimquest to our partner network and thrilled for what it means for SolidWorks users in their area," said EpiGrid founder and CTO, Chad Garrish. "Now the benefits of EPDM—as well as all the value adds of the EpiGrid Solution—are open to companies of any size."
The EpiGrid Solution is changing the face of SolidWorks enterprise product data management (EPDM) by removing the infrastructure and processes that hinder engineering departments.
"Everyone is asking about the cloud right now, especially companies with few to no IT resources," said Cimquest’s Director of SolidWorks Sales, Bryan Hennigan. "Through this partnership, we are the first SolidWorks reseller in North America to offer our customers PDM on the cloud while also shortening the implementation timeline with the EpiGrid implementation process and vault."
The EpiGrid/Cimquest partnership will allow engineering departments to increase productivity, streamline design processes and shorten time to market by combining the benefits of EPDM with the value of EpiGrid’s hosted environment and vault configuration.
