Hawk Ridge Systems and EpiGrid, creator of the first private hosted solution for product data management, announced today a partnership that will give SolidWorks EPDM users the ability to implement their data management solution on the cloud.
As part of this partnership, Hawk Ridge Systems can offer new and existing customers EpiGrid’s solution which provides scalable delivery of hosted architecture and top level security. It will also allow Hawk Ridge account executives to provide remote product demos and unprecedented backend support.
"Customers have been asking for a cloud solution, but no one really offers it," said John Peros, Director of Data Management and Software Development for Hawk Ridge Systems. "With this partnership, we’re giving our customers the opportunity to utilize new technology and do so with a solution that’s optimized for SolidWorks Enterprise PDM. It’s a huge advantage and we’re excited about being on the forefront of this shift."
The EpiGrid Solution is changing the face of SolidWorks EPDM by removing the infrastructure and processes that hinder engineering departments while significantly lowering IT costs, but that’s just the beginning. "Running EPDM on the cloud is just the start from our perspective," said Peros. "There are a ton of future opportunities and right now we’re laying the groundwork for future expansion."
EpiGrid CTO, Chad Garrish, has been a pioneer in this movement and is thrilled to have a partner that is equally dedicated to revolutionizing data management. "We’re really excited about the opportunity to work with Hawk Ridge and help their customers increase productivity, streamline design processes and just improve PDM overall."
