Riverbed for Autodesk AutoCAD

Autodesk LogoCAD and CAE applications generate huge files that are extremely difficult to work with over the WAN. Typically organisations maintain a file vault at each site in order to overcome this problem, along with some kind of revision control process or application.

Riverbed allows designers and engineers to collaborate across long distances as if they were in the same room, sharing enormous CAD files with ease.

Whether users exchange CAD files via FTP, email, or remote-file shares, Riverbed dramatically improves the speed they move over the WAN. For large files sent over low-bandwidth/high latency links, the gains in performance can easily be 5 to 50 times.

Riverbed supports applications including:

  • Autodesk’s AutoCAD
  • Land Desktop and Inventor
  • PTC’s Pro/E
  • Dassault Systems’ CATIA or SolidWorks
  • Bentley’s Microstation
