Sibe provides a clean way to manage CAD filesand revisions. As a non-CAD founder, the web workspace is incredibly helpful for reviewing product designs without needing SOLIDWORKS, and the version control is finally reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform is deeply engineering-focused, sosome technical terminology took a bit of time to learn as a marketing user. Adding more contextual tooltips would definitely help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sibe gives our operations team better visibility into design progress and approved revisions. The web workspace is easy to access, and we no longer waste time chasing engineers for the latest drawings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

More non-technical guides for operational users would be helpful to navigate the platform more independently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sibe makes it easy to access design files and technical documents without needing SOLIDWORKS. The web viewer is simple, and the cloud workspace keeps everything organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features are clearly built for engineers, so marketing users need a bit of guidance initially. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sibe makes CAD version control much easier without forcing engineers to leave SOLIDWORKS. The native add-in is the biggest advantage because check-in, check-out, version history, and references are handled in the same environment where the design work happens.

Some of the more advanced reporting and BOM-related workflows could be expanded further, especially for teams that want everything connected to downstream production systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best feature has to be the freeze and release for BOMs and drawings. Before Sibe, getting a BOM out of engineering and moving it into our ERP for procurement required a manual multi-step email chase as an admin for our team. When I finish the designing, I can freeze that revision in Sibe. It starts automatic notifications and locks the files so that everyone involved from procurement to the shop floor knows they are working off a single source of truth. It substituted a shared link that engineering provided, and a spreadsheet with tracking information that was always out of date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My only critique of project dashboard is the default view. Unfortunately, my team as a group doesn’t have the ability to set a default filter setting, or layout, for which they will always start Asana with. By “filter setting”, I mean that I have to click on the same two filters every time I log into Asana. Those basically are: “My Projects”, then “Status: In Progress”. The extra click is annoying as a power user. It might be an insignificant UI quirk, but it helps a lot when using it every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As the IT Operation Manager, the best thing I like about Sibe is that it has zero-server and zero-install architecture.

Our company was in SolidWorks PDM which requires setting up a server and involves a third party company, where the basic set up cost is $20,000. We migrated to Sibe, and encountered very low downtime.

The security model for external sharing, gives you granular access control, like you can make it view-only for your customer and disable download. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Sibe team has worked with various senior engineers who are usually used to PDM platforms. As the transition first happened some resistance was seen from their end. When you first start using the app there are some minor delays while syncing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate how it develops an integrated platform that connects our internal engineering team with external suppliers. Due to automated BOM flowing to procurement no sourcing error occurred and we are ahead of schedule Having a full audit trail offers complete clarity during the review of any project, and the access to the cloud makes the review manageable from anywhere.

Notification settings do not suitably customize for all user roles, leading to an excess of notifications for users. Our external partners were not too tech-savvy so they needed some hand holding during the rollout phase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sibe gives engineering and manufacturing teams a much clearer way to access controlled CAD data. The browser workspace is useful because people outside engineering can review designs without needing SOLIDWORKS installed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some manufacturing handoff workflows could benefit from deeper automation, especially around BOM exports and ERP connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Keeping the engineering process straight in regards to check in and check out without being bogged down by a PDM that is self hosted. A cloud hosted PDM software is long overdue and Sibe checks that box. It is pretty straight forward and the added search functionality has been helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a newer piece of software that is still missing some features and has some quirks. The one quirk that is tough to work around is not being able to move files around within the top level folders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sibe makes it easier to manage SOLIDWORKS files across distributed teams. The cloud workspace and controlled sharing are especially useful when designs need to be reviewed by people outside the core CAD group. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

More detailed audit and compliance reporting would be helpful for organizations with stricter documentation requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
