Creo’s Top Class Core Features:

PTC’s Creo is a global leader in Product Design 3D CAD software. Read how Creo helps re-invent how we design, create, and innovate better products with our broad range of functionality:

  • Modeling & Design: Build better products faster by accelerating product innovation, reusing the best of your design, and replacing assumptions with facts. Go from the earliest phases of product design to a smart, connected product with Creo.
  • Simulation & Analysis: With simulation, you can analyze and validate the performance of your 3D virtual prototypes, allowing you to iterate more quickly and design with greater confidence while saving money and time.
  • Augmented Reality: With Creo AR Design Share integrated into every seat of Creo, companies are changing their product design process to take advantage of this cloud-based technology. With Creo AR, you can iterate faster, make fewer prototypes, and conduct more meaningful design reviews.
  • Smart Connected Design: When the power of CAD and IoT come together, your team can access a feedback loop of how your products are performing in the field, enabling you to design more reliable products.
  • Additive Manufacturing: With Creo additive manufacturing, you can develop innovative designs, optimize, and print to a variety of printers with ease, all within Creo.
  • Model-Based Definition: A model-based definition is an approach to creating 3D models so that they effectively contain all the data needed to define a product.

02. Why Upgrade Your Version of Creo Parametric?

Many current Creo customers upgrade simply because they want to be on the latest and greatest version of the software. Here are a couple more reasons to upgrade:

  1. Subscription customers upgrade for free. If you’re not a subscription customer yet, make a move to PTC subscription to upgrade!

Upgrading an established system often seems daunting – from planning all the way to installing an update to all users’ machines, getting everybody onboarded for quick productivity, and possibly adjusting workflows – sounds like quite a task.

Every customer is different and there is no one-size-fits-all approach for upgrading. However, with our expertise from servicing customers over many years, our Customer Success team has the expertise to support you with your upgrade project.
