SOLIDWORKS Visualize and SOLIDWORKS Visualize Boost

SOLIDWORKS^® Visualize (formerly known as Bunkspeed) provides a suite of stand-alone software tools that combine advanced rendering capabilities with visual design-oriented features and workflows, so you can create highly realistic images of 3D CAD models.

For a list of the current features in each version of the SOLIDWORKS Visualize software, go to solidworks.com and search for SOLIDWORKS Visualize Datasheet.

A complimentary seat of SOLIDWORKS Visualize Standard is included with each SOLIDWORKS 2019 Professional and Premium license on active subscription. To activate the complimentary seat, you need an additional serial number, which you can find by logging into the SOLIDWORKS Customer Portal and clicking My Products. You can no longer use your SOLIDWORKS Professional or Premium serial number to activate your complimentary seat of SOLIDWORKS Visualize Standard.

SOLIDWORKS Visualize also supports SolidNetWork Licensing (SNL) license types such as floating, as well as offline activation.

Using the SOLIDWORKS Installation Manager (SLDIM), you install SOLIDWORKS Visualize as part of the Individual installation. You can install it as a stand-alone application, which is an advantage if you want to use separate computers for modeling and rendering. It does not consume a SOLIDWORKS license.

SOLIDWORKS Visualize Boost is a service that allows you to distribute rendering from a computer running SOLIDWORKS Visualize Professional to one or more computers on a network. You can perform other tasks on your computer while the rendering is being carried out, and the final rendered images are available sooner. Images can be rendered on a single computer, or on a cluster of several computers running Visualize Boost.

You should install Visualize Boost on a computer separate from the one that is running SOLIDWORKS Visualize Professional. You can also install Visualize Boost as part of the Individual installation in the SLDIM.
