What CADservis does

CADservis, s.r.o. is a privately held Czech limited liability company founded in 2002 and headquartered in Štěpánkovice with operations in Ostrava. Since 2013 it has served as the exclusive distributor of ZWSOFT's ZWCAD and ZW3D CAD/CAM software lines for the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and it also holds exclusive representation of SKIJO CZ. The company operates with 1–10 employees organized into dedicated ZWCAD, ZW3D, BIM, 3D technologies, and administrative teams under founder-owner Jiří Tomíček and managing director Silvie Tomíčková.

The core business is software distribution and localization rather than product development: CADservis resells ZWCAD (2D/3D CAD with 100% DWG compatibility, available in Standard, Professional, and Mechanical variants) and ZW3D (3D CAD/CAM compatible with Catia, Inventor, SolidWorks, ProE, Creo, JT, and IFC, plus 2X/3X machining modules), alongside a BIM stack (Archline.XP LT/Professional/Live/Interior, BIMvision IFC viewer, BIMTech Tools free add-on with local cadastral maps), and complementary products (SketchUp PRO/EDU, Lumion, CADbro, ZWCAD Viewer). Czech and Slovak language localization, local technical support via TeamViewer, a YouTube tutorial channel, and free product consultation are part of the embedded service layer.

Revenue mechanics combine one-time perpetual licenses, annual subscription options, paid custom training, technical support (largely free), 3D scanning and 3D printing consultation, and complementary hardware sales (computers, 3D mice, scanners, printers). Distribution runs through both an e-commerce storefront (cadservis.com with ComGate payment processing) and a direct field sales motion targeting enterprise, government, municipal, educational, and SMB customers. Named clients span Prague, the Czech Army, KIEKERT, ČEZ ENERGO, Moravskoslezské cukrovary, PRAGOPROJEKT, ASA expert, COND KLIMA, and numerous MEP, fire-safety, and water-management firms, indicating diversification across construction, manufacturing, energy, defense, and public-sector verticals.

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Solibri (Nemetschek Group): Solibri provides BIM quality assurance and model validation software. Adjacent to CADservis's BIM portfolio (BIMvision, Archline.XP, BIMTech) and increasingly bundled into AEC workflows targeted by CADservis.

Direct peers

• Bricsys: Bricsys develops and distributes BricsCAD, a DWG-compatible 2D/3D CAD alternative to AutoCAD - directly comparable to ZWCAD. Operates a global distributor network model similar to CADservis, with permanent licensing and value-added reseller relationships worldwide.
• Vectorworks (Nemetschek Group): Vectorworks is a CAD/BIM/drafting software provider for architecture, landscape, and entertainment design, distributed via a global VAR network. Comparable to CADservis's segmentation approach (architecture, construction, manufacturing) with localized distributor support.
• Gstarsoft (GstarCAD): GstarCAD is a direct competitor to ZWCAD in the affordable AutoCAD-replacement category, offering DWG-compatible 2D/3D CAD. Like CADservis's ZWCAD line, GstarCAD is sold globally through regional distributors and VARs targeting cost-sensitive CAD users.
• ALLPLAN (Nemetschek Group): ALLPLAN is a German CAD/BIM software vendor for architecture, engineering, and construction under the Nemetschek Group. Comparable to CADservis's full-stack BIM/CAD positioning in the DACH and CEE markets, with regional distributor partnerships.

Broad incumbents

• Trimble (SketchUp): Trimble owns SketchUp, which CADservis actively resells. As a broad AEC technology incumbent with construction-grade software, Trimble is also a competitor through products like Tekla and Trimble Connect.
• RIB Software (Schneider Electric): RIB Software provides construction and engineering software (iTWO, MTWO) for the AEC industry. Now part of Schneider Electric, competes with the broader CAD/BIM stack that CADservis distributes, particularly in large construction projects.
• Autodesk: Autodesk is the global incumbent whose AutoCAD/Revit/Inventor suite is the primary competitor to CADservis's entire product portfolio. Operates direct sales and a large authorized reseller network in CEE.
• Dassault Systèmes: Dassault Systèmes offers CATIA, SOLIDWORKS, and 3DEXPERIENCE - competing directly with ZW3D in mechanical CAD/CAM. Operates via a global VAR/distributor network and is a broad incumbent in the manufacturing CAD space that CADservis serves via ZW3D.

Regional players

• Graphisoft: Hungarian-headquartered developer of ArchiCAD, a leading BIM solution for architects. Operates a regional distributor network in CEE; competes directly with Archline.XP and ZWCAD-anchored BIM offerings marketed by CADservis.
