CCE announced that small and medium-sized businesses are successfully leveraging Dropbox and the free CAD viewers on CCE Labs for managing product data and documents in their organizations. At a time when a lot is being written in the press about new cloud solutions for engineering data management, CCE announced that a majority of its SMB industrial customer base is leveraging existing software for product data management.
