Enabling CAD Collaboration in Nextcloud | Nextcloud Conference 2023

#Nextcloud #NextcloudConference2023 #LightningTalk
Many professionals in the Construction and Real Estate industries as well as Government needs a secure tool to be able to share CAD drawings and collaborate around projects between customers, users, and stakeholders.
Tailor Made Software (offices in Seattle and Stockholm) has with partner Docuex in the UK, who uses Nextcloud as platform to share drawings with their client portfolio throughout Europe, developed the CADViewer App for Nextcloud. The CADViewer CAD conversion and display engine is completely integrated inside Nextcloud with no external access, thereby keeping all customer content secure.
The speech will talk about the functional needs in this space, the cool features of CADViewer in Nextcloud, and what will be added in the future, Nextcloud as an enabler of a business application and open a discussion about licensed vs. open source.
Whereas Tailor Made Software can be a driver to update and/or rewrite the current open source projects for DWG (AutoCAD) format support, the project requirements do that the stakeholders in these businesses typically will opt for an industry foundation toolkit.
