Sneak Peek: 15 Features Coming in SOLIDWORKS 2016

It’s that time again! It’s time for SOLIDWORKS 2016 and all of the exciting new features and enhancements that come with it. Most years users typically have to wait until the website launches and the new release goes live in order to get a first glimpse at some of the new features. Then, sometime later in the fall, they can attend a local SOLIDWORKS Reseller Launch Event to see all of the new features demonstrated live.

That changed some last year when a new tradition was born here on the Blogs. You guessed it! We’re bringing back the Sneak Peeks! Over the next few weeks, we’ll be taking a Sneak Peek at 15 exciting new features here on the SOLIDWORKS Blog. Then, when SOLIDWORKS 2016 is launched, we’ll discuss those 15 features in short, detailed Deep Dives over on the SOLIDWORKS Tech Blog to prepare you for your local Reseller Launch Event. I will be updating this post as we move through our Sneak Peeks and Deep Dives so that you can bookmark and use this post as a reference guide.

I’m very excited to be bringing back this series – stay tuned. And in the meantime, if you’re like me and can’t wait until Launch Day? You can learn more about SOLIDWORKS 2016 by clicking the banner above and signing up for the SOLIDWORKS 2016 Beta Program.
