CoCreate Software Inc.

CoCreate Software Inc. was a multinational software company headquartered in Fort Collins, Colorado, with significant operations in Germany and other locations across the world. The company specialized in providing 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software, PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) solutions, and collaboration tools primarily aimed at manufacturers and product developers.


Some key highlights and products associated with CoCreate Software Inc. include:



  1. CoCreate OneSpace Modeling: One of their flagship products, this 3D CAD software was known for its flexibility and ease of use, favoring a direct modeling approach, which allowed for easy modifications to the design without traditional parametric constraints. This was particularly advantageous for rapid prototyping and iterative design processes.



  2. CoCreate Model Manager: This PLM solution was designed to help organizations manage product data more efficiently. It provided version control, component management, and workflow automation, which were crucial for ensuring that design teams stayed organized and aligned.



  3. CoCreate OneSpace Drafting: While 3D modeling was increasingly dominant, 2D drafting remained important for many engineering tasks. This product offered powerful 2D drafting capabilities that were tightly integrated with CoCreate’s 3D modeling tools.



  4. WorkManager: An earlier product, WorkManager was focused on PDM (Product Data Management) and served as a foundation for many of the subsequent PLM solutions offered by CoCreate.




In December 2007, CoCreate was acquired by PTC (Parametric Technology Corporation). PTC integrated CoCreate's offerings into their own suite of products, rebranding CoCreate’s solutions under the PTC Creo and PTC Windchill lines. This acquisition allowed PTC to broaden its portfolio, particularly enhancing its capabilities in direct modeling and flexible product development.


CoCreate’s legacy lives on within PTC’s offerings, contributing to the company's comprehensive suite of solutions for design, manufacturing, and lifecycle management.
