Siemens PLM
Software has
significantly expanded its long-standing software license agreement
with Altair
Engineering, Inc. (Altair), a leading global provider of software
for optimizing the analysis, management and visualization of
business and engineering information. The expanded agreement
enables Altair to deploy Parasolid
Designer software throughout its product offerings.
Parasolid Designer provides Altair advanced modeling capability to
seamlessly integrate with its existing core technology and to
enable accelerated product development.
Altair is expanding the use of
Parasolid®
software to include Parasolid
Designer following an extensive strategic review of how to align
its solidThinking and
HyperWorks product
suites. Altair sought a solution to augment its
internally-developed core technology, which is used in HyperWorks,
and concurrently align to its product
suites.
“During the extensive evaluation process, Parasolid Designer
proved to be the most technically advanced solution to enable
accelerated development across Altair’s entire product range and to
align with our established technology; this was crucial for our
business success,” said Massimo Fariello, senior VP, software
technology alliances and strategies, Altair. “The technical advantages of
Parasolid, combined with the trust established in
Siemens over the past several years, gave us confidence in our
decision to select this solution. We look forward to delivering
enhancements in future releases leveraging the advanced modeling
functionality in Parasolid.”
“Siemens PLM Software’s position as the leading provider of
PLM component software is based on providing superior technology
and developing long-term mutually beneficial relationships with our
licensees,” said Paul Sicking, senior vice president, Chief
Technology Office, Siemens PLM Software. “We are delighted that a
company of Altair’s caliber has selected Parasolid to integrate its
suite of products. This decision further validates both the
direction of our technology and our open strategy.”
Altair first became a Parasolid licensee in 2008, through the
acquisition of solidThinking conceptual design software which uses
the full breath of Parasolid
Designer functionality. In 2011, Altair integrated
Parasolid
Communicator into its HyperWorks suite to enable
translator-free interoperability with the extensive list of PLM
products based on Parasolid.
