How do I buy SolidWorks or get a trial version?
Here at SolidWorks, we work hard to make our products easy to buy, learn and use; however, two of the most common questions we receive are:
The answer to both questions is actually the same–by contacting a SolidWorks Value-Added Reseller. Unlike many companies selling software for the consumer market, SolidWorks does not sell directly, or offer trial versions for download from our website. And there’s a reason for this.
Despite being easy to learn and use, SolidWorks is a sophisticated piece of software with multiple package options and add-ons, with functionality for building everything from simple sprockets to complex cars and airplanes. When you express an interest in SolidWorks, we want to make sure that you talk with someone who can discuss your business with you personally and recommend the ideal solution.
That’s where your local reseller comes in, meeting with you and putting together a personalized quote to meet the needs you have today and help you be more productive in the future. The same goes for product trials. We want to ensure that you have the best possible experience when you’re evaluating our products, which is why trials are only available through your local reseller. Once your reseller has discussed the right options for your business, he or she can provide you with the corresponding trial software, and will be available to answer questions during the trial period.
SolidWorks resellers are also the first line for product support, and when you buy SolidWorks, you can be sure that you have a local team available to help you out with the initial set-up process, as well as walk you through any support issues you may have in the future. They are committed to working with you and helping you be successful.
When you contact SolidWorks directly, we will pair you with the best reseller in your area to speak with. They will contact you directly to schedule a consultation and demonstration, and when you’re ready, provide a comprehensive quote. And if you like, they can provide a trial version of SolidWorks and any of our other software solutions.
