Houston, TX (PRWEB)
March 9, 2009 -- Engineering and AutoCAD corporate functions
are utilizing the benefits of Dv Project, a revolutionary
compact tool from Practical Programs, Inc., called "Dv Project" (http://www.practicalprograms.net/project_document_management.htm).
Dv Project provides a cost-controlled and simplified means
to quickly access the main tasks of AutoCAD drawing and document
file management for teams engaged with AutoCad engineering
drawings. With an improved and more user-friendly interface,
now CAD dwg files can be more easily and more simply accessed,
checked in or out, revised, and copied. The tool's security
settings retain the ability to assign only the individuals
to projects selected and to control who is allowed to access
critical files. This CAD viewer and file management solution
is well-suited to avoid choice overkill while keeping production
focused and streamlined.
In industrial and energy sectors like Houston, TX, Dv Project
can simplify everyday engineering drawing management tasks
in the fields of industrial machinery and drill bit design
for mining and energy applications, as well as a host of
other industry-specific design applications. Dv Project makes
it easy to quickly and painlessly add multiple documents
(http://www.practicalprograms.net/album1/swfvidoes/dragdrop/dragdrop.html)
with a simple drag and drop platform, just like in Microsoft
Windows applications, enabling mass-migration of files quickly
and easily. Meta data is automatically populated from folders
and title blocks and thumbnails of drawings are auto-generated
from mass-imported files. Documents are almost instantly
ready for content search, check-in and check-out, desktop
or web viewing, markup and distribution. Index and store
any and all document directories and retrieve documents with
the advanced searching function. Users can view, archive,
manage, convert, and distribute AutoCAD drawings with this
simplified document file management software in an intuitive
manner.
"We have discovered that the Dv Project suite is a cost-effective
way for smaller teams with more streamlined requirements
to get just what they need and keep costs under tighter control.
Dv Project is just right for many companies who want to explore
some of the functionality of the Dv TDM suite without committing
to a higher cost and complexity just yet," says Bret Lawson,
sales manager at Practical Programs. He adds, "We designed
this solution to help make sense of acquiring a professional
document management solution for limited needs."
Dv Project is intended to facilitate drawing and file management
for 10 or fewer concurrent users on a single local network.
Dv Project may be installed on a server and accessed from
local machines or installed on and accessed from a stand-alone
computer. Installation time for Dv Project is 3 hours via
remote installation and includes one concurrent license.
Additional licenses run at $1,475.00 each. Customized modifications
can be quoted as needed. The Dv Project stand-alone tool
is priced at $2,995.00 on its own, or can be purchased as
part of the larger Dv TDM suite at additional cost and with
enhanced applications for larger work groups. If requiring
more than 10 concurrent users, web versions, or a distributed
network, the full Dv TDM product is generally recommended.
Dv TDM, the larger tools suite, is available as an upgrade
to Dv Project should document management needs expand and
grow more complex.
