From your team to your customers, Inventor Connected Design means sharing your models and project files much more conveniently.Emailing AutoCAD files and asking clients to install a viewer to see the design process are now things of the past. Now, through Autodesk Inventor and A360, users are able to share and collaborate 3D designs between anyone, anywhere, and nearly on any device.
