Safeguarding your Intellectual Property.

IP protection and security are paramount for all companies. But startups have the additional security challenge of soliciting bids from many suppliers and contractors they’ve likely never worked with before. If a vendor were to inadvertently or deliberately leak your data, it could prove disastrous. Onshape’s strict access controls enable you to provide the right level of permissions for each team member, contractor, or supplier. Your intellectual property is protected at all times, and any employee’s or partner’s data access can be revoked at any time. Learn more about everything Onshape does to protect your company’s data.

Managing Data through all Phases of Growth

While your top priority today might be getting a product to market ASAP, as your product matures and your team grows, revision control and data management will undoubtedly take on more importance.. The good news? With Onshape’s built-in PDM and revision control, your company can scale up from tech startup to multinational corporation, all while using the same design tool at its core.
