SOLIDWORKS® Visualize provides a
suite of stand-alone tools that combine advanced rendering capabilities with visual
design-oriented features and workflows, so you can create highly realistic images of 3D
CAD models.
SOLIDWORKS Visualize products are available in two packages:
A complimentary seat of SOLIDWORKS Visualize Standard is included with
each SOLIDWORKS Professional and Premium license on active subscription. For stand-alone
activation SOLIDWORKS customers, you need an additional serial number. Check with your
SOLIDWORKS administrator or resellar if you do not know your SOLIDWORKS Visualize serial
number.
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
(Install on
this computer) 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 rendered
image generates, and the final rendered images are available sooner.
You
can also install Visualize Boost as part of the individual (Install on this
computer) installation in the SOLIDWORKS Installation
Manager.
A complimentary seat of SOLIDWORKS Visualize Boost is included with each
seat of SOLIDWORKS Visualize Professional on active subscription.
Visualize Boost is a product add-on for Visualize Professional only. Visualize
Boost does not work with Visualize Standard.
