Looking for help with ENOVIA?
ENOVIA and 3DEXPERIENCE are closely related but not the same.
ENOVIA is a comprehensive data intelligence and PLM (product lifecycle management) software developed by Dassault Systèmes, designed to manage product data and processes across the entire lifecycle. It operates as part of the broader 3DEXPERIENCE platform, which integrates various applications, including ENOVIA, CATIA, SIMULIA, and DELMIA, to provide a unified environment for design, simulation, manufacturing, and collaboration.
The 3DEXPERIENCE platform acts as the foundation that connects ENOVIA with other tools, offering a seamless “single source of truth” for all stakeholders.
The primary purpose of ENOVIA is to enable efficient collaboration and innovation across an enterprise by managing product data, processes, and lifecycles. It supports disciplines such as business modeling, quality management, product configurations, and compliance. By providing real-time access to accurate data through the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, ENOVIA enhances decision-making, reduces time-to-market, ensures regulatory compliance, and fosters innovation in product development.
ENOVIA is primarily a data intelligence and PLM (product lifecycle management) solution. However, it also includes PDM (product data management) capabilities.
While PDM focuses on managing design files and related data, PLM encompasses broader processes such as product planning, change management, compliance, and collaboration across departments. ENOVIA integrates both functionalities to provide a comprehensive solution for managing product lifecycles.
ENOVIA’s pricing is customized based on the specific needs of each organization. Factors such as the number of users, deployment method (cloud or on-premise), and required modules influence the cost. While some sources mention starting prices for cloud-based solutions (e.g., $15 per user per month), enterprise implementations typically require direct quotes from Dassault Systèmes or authorized resellers.
Requirements management in ENOVIA involves capturing, analyzing, prioritizing, and tracking requirements throughout the product lifecycle.
ENOVIA’s requirements central module allows organizations to link customer needs to design specifications, ensuring traceability and compliance with standards. This process reduces development costs by bridging gaps between requirements, design, and launch while improving product quality and customer satisfaction.
Yes, ENOVIA offers extensive customization capabilities through its Studio Customization Toolkit. Businesses can extend functionality using APIs for Java or C++, develop custom workflows, or configure dashboards tailored to specific roles. This flexibility allows organizations to adapt ENOVIA to unique industry requirements while maintaining seamless integration with other 3DEXPERIENCE applications.
