SolidVision

What SolidVision does

SolidVision, s.r.o. is a Czech Republic-based value-added reseller and digital engineering services provider founded in 2002 and headquartered in Brno. The company is the largest authorized reseller of Dassault Systèmes SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD software and SolidCAM CNC machining software in the Czech Republic, with operational reach into Slovakia. Its commercial offering bundles software licensing, certified training, technical support, and consulting services for manufacturing and engineering customers. The portfolio spans three pillars: (1) the SOLIDWORKS ecosystem (Standard, Professional, Premium, and add-on modules for simulation, PDM, electrical design, quality control, visualization, sustainability, and furniture design); (2) the cloud-based 3DEXPERIENCE platform with cloud CAD, simulation, collaboration, and NC programming roles; and (3) SolidCAM CNC milling, turning, wire-EDM, and furniture manufacturing CAM modules. SolidVision also distributes its own IS Helios ERP line (Helios easy, Helios inuvio) under partnership with Aspon Software, and resells 3D scanning hardware (Creaform) and 3D printing solutions (3D Systems).

The company's revenue mechanics span subscription-based software license resale (annual billing cadence for both commercial and academic tiers), recurring technical support contracts, and professional services revenue from certified training and digital transformation consulting. GTM is enterprise field sales-led, targeting Czech and Slovak manufacturers, supplemented by an e-commerce storefront for smaller buyers and a large educational licensing program. Documented operating scale includes 22,151 trained users, 4,685 commercial licenses delivered, 78,820 technical support questions resolved, and 11,130 school licenses — a cumulative base that demonstrates entrenched channel position but obscures current-period activity. Distribution is concentrated in a single Czech headquarters, with no disclosed subsidiaries, M&A history, or external funding; the business operates as an independent private limited company.

The core technology stack is third-party rather than proprietary: SolidVision resells and implements vendor platforms rather than developing core IP. Differentiated assets are limited to integration know-how (notably the SolidVision Connector and SolidVision Connector LITE bridges between SOLIDWORKS PDM and external ERP/databases), process consulting depth, and accumulated training/certification credentials. This positions SolidVision as a regional channel-and-services layer atop Dassault Systèmes' stack — revenue durability is tied to vendor relationship continuity, Czech manufacturing capex cycles, and the company's ability to upsell into the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud transition.
