Reports can be customized to provide a clear picture of what is happening in your Enterprise, and reports can be downloaded as PDF or CSV files. Enterprise Admins can protect the intellectual property (IP) of their Enterprise with auditing reports. They can also review where resources are being spent on projects, view locations where users have accessed documents, and more.

Role-Based Access Controls (RBAC) in Onshape Enterprise enables designated administrators to configure multiple roles and permission schemes and apply them to a project. Access permission types are identical for all editions of Onshape: View, Comment, Export, Edit, Link, Share and Copy. Using a combination of these permissions enables you to control precisely which actions each user or team of users can take with your data. 

With Onshape, users work quickly. They can work in parallel by branching and then merging design ideas; they can work in individual sandboxes simultaneously; and they can do it all with the security that their data is always saved and versioned.

Onshape is also the only CAD solution with fully functional mobile apps including support to edit models. This empowers engineers to work on their models from any location and device with enhanced flexibility, accessibility, and collaboration.

Onshape integrates with other CAD, PDM, and PLM systems, enabling seamless collaboration across teams using different tools.
