The SOLIDWORKS Enhancement Ideas Community provides SOLIDWORKS users with the ability to submit and vote for their enhancement ideas for SOLIDWORKS products. The community is moderated by the SOLIDWORKS Product Definition team and is an element of their annual research. The goal of this research is to understand which enhancements to SOLIDWORKS products are most important to our users.
These ideas will provide guidance for future developments in SOLIDWORKS. You can see a majority of the ideas from former SOLIDWORKS World Top Ten lists implemented now in the SOLIDWORKS product.
