Providing Access to the Vault

Companies that adopt Autodesk Vault data management software have an easy-to-use tool that maintains version control in a multi-user environment and improves design reuse by consolidating product information in one place. However, since the models and drawings now reside in the Vault, they are not accessible to downstream users that do not have CAD applications on their desktop, such as people in the purchasing and manufacturing departments. Vault Access enables this connection by allowing users to query, view and print engineering data on their desktop.

Features of Vault Access include:

--Browsing the Vault Folder Structure

--Interrogating the "meta-data" associated with files in the vault (including material specifications, vendor information and other data)

--Searching for files based on properties or simply by Part Number

--Viewing and printing Inventor and DWF files in the Vault

--Launching external viewers for other applications (such as Office documents)

Pricing and Availability

Vault Access is available now. The stand-alone, non-network version sells for US $249 per seat and an introductory price of $149 is offered from April 25th 2005 until June 30th 2005. To see an online demonstration or download a 30-day trial of the software, go to www.avat.com/web/vaultaccess.
