    Buy online and get access to SOLIDWORKS Design instantly via Dassault Systemes’ secure checkout. Buying SOLIDWORKS has never been easier!

  • Easy onboarding

    You’ll receive an email straight after you buy SOLIDWORKS Design online. Your email will tell you everything you need to know to download and install your software. Easy!

  • Full support

    Need help? We’re here for you. When you buy SOLIDWORKS Design from Visiativ, you get access to our award-winning team for length of your term. You’re in safe hands with us.

  • Design reuse

    Quickly find existing 3D models and create new products by reusing them in your designs – saving time.

  • Animation and rendering

    Create compelling photo realistic images and animations of your ideas before manufacture.

  • Check interference

    Check all your holes line up and nothing else clashes – avoid errors before you manufacture.

  • Design testing

    Simulate if your design will serve its purposes by testing whilst the design is still virtual.

  • Welded fabrications

    Create welded fabrications with ease, add welding annotation and automatically create accurate cutting lists that update as changes are made.

  • Sheet metal parts

    For designing and unfolding simple or complex sheet metal parts – with full range of flanges, tabs, corner treatments, ripped edges, hems and joggles.

Companies that trust SOLIDWORKS & Visiativ

I’d highly recommend SOLIDWORKS to any engineer in any industry!

SOLIDWORKS is versatile, it’s got loads of tools that help you work in multiple materials using multiple manufacturing methods. Plus, the Visiativ sales team are highly skilled helping us to understand what SOLIDWORKS can do, demonstrating how it can benefit us in a very relaxed and non-pushy way.

  • SOLIDWORKS Standard

    SOLIDWORKS Standard is the bedrock for the whole ecosystem, providing the core tools you need for professional 3D mechanical design.

    It enables you to create accurate parts, assemblies and production-ready drawings, supporting a wide range of design methods including sheet metal, weldments and surface modelling.

    With an intuitive interface and powerful modelling capabilities, SOLIDWORKS Standard is ideal for engineers and designers looking to develop high-quality products efficiently and reliably.

  • SOLIDWORKS Professional

    SOLIDWORKS Professional extends the functionality of Standard with tools designed to improve productivity, collaboration and design insight.

    It includes built-in libraries of standard components, advanced visualisation for creating realistic renders, and features that help assess manufacturing costs earlier in the design process.

    With added data management capabilities, SOLIDWORKS Professional supports more structured workflows, helping teams manage files, reduce errors and communicate designs more effectively.

  • SOLIDWORKS Premium

    SOLIDWORKS Premium brings together the full capabilities of Standard and Professional with advanced tools for design analysis and system routing.

    It enables engineers to explore how designs behave through integrated simulation and motion analysis, as well as to create and manage piping, tubing and electrical routing within the same design environment.

    SOLIDWORKS Premium is well suited to more complex products and assemblies, supporting confident design decisions within a single, connected CAD workflow.

    Put simply, 3D CAD doesn’t get better than this!
