Complex part file fix

We design and restore forma F1 cars and as you can imagine the part file and assembly complexities can be quite intense.

We had a issue today with a file and Jak and Tom from Visiativ were able to get us a fix within 3 hours. Pretty impressive considering the complexity of the file.

Definitely appreciated. Cheers guys.

PDM Viewer issues that we're resolved with help of Visiativ

Worked with James Kingman this morning to identify issue with users not being able to open up previous drawings/files. Was on the phone for a while and he was very good at assisting to resolve the problem.

Got to the root of the issue being a viewer related problem that needed to be set within the PDM admin settings for the context of that user.

Hi Richard,

Thank you for your feedback.

We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your recent support experience.

At Visiativ, we take great pride in our platinum-rated support service, and we appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

We acknowledge that an email was mistakenly sent informing you that your support ticket had been closed. This was due to a system error following a change in our helpdesk software, and we sincerely regret any confusion it caused. However, please rest assured that our team was actively working on your case throughout.

As we discussed during our telephone conversation on January 27th, your issue was fully resolved before this review was posted on Trustpilot.

We understand the importance of exceptional service in a competitive market, and we appreciate your continued choice of Visiativ as your SOLIDWORKS reseller over the years.

If there’s anything further we can do for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Kind Regards,

Alex Aprigliano

All technical support should be like this

Have recently had the pleasure of dealing with Tom Reeve and yesterday with Graeme Billingsley. Top drawer on both counts. I made a point of asking about a review page. Related to a DraftSight migration as our business is moving to new architecture. Speaking with people, who clearly know what they are doing and aren't following a script or aren't hiding behind a convoluted telephone system makes a refreshing change. Thanks again for the help. M

Excellent advise for sheet metal K Factor

Excellent advise for sheet metal K factor calculation depending upon material type / hardness & thickness / Vee size when air bending or coining.

The difference between CAD & the real world bridged to get it right every time.

Thank you.

Fixed a SolidWorks issue

Spoke to Sam about a problem that I was having with SolidWorks. He sorted the problem out using TeamViewer.
He didn't have to - I'm not even a customer but he got involved when he didn't have to!
That is a measure of the company as far as I'm concerned!! Awesome service.

fantastic support

I cant thank James enough for his help in getting us back up and running with our solid works. our computer broke and a new hard drive had to be fitted
which meant our programs had been lost. as I didn't have the yearly support package I thought I had lost solidworks. I thought I would send an email and see what response I would get. to my delight I received an email first thing the next morning from James with details of how the download and install solidworks.
well do you guys, its just the support we need and many thanks to James.
