Through the inspirations of long-term customers and our own in-house development, existing functions are thus improved in a practice-oriented manner and new functions are developed. ## Time saving through automatisms Create CAD data for stairs or railings in just a few minutes? Configurators help you to create a basic design in no time, which you can use to design much more complex projects in a minimum of time:   Every project is individual? Do you need to manage your data in a project-oriented manner? Have you ever thought about integrating PDM into your CAD software?   Long loading times for large projects? Save time by viewing your complex projects in a simplified view:   These sample functions have all been created by past updates specifically for various industries. On our website you will find even more useful functions, also for your industry.   - - - - - [mailto:?subject=Software%20Updates:%20Examples%20from%20Practice&body=https://blog.isdgroup.com/en/examples-from-practice](mailto:?subject=Software%20Updates:%20Examples%20from%20Practice&body=https://blog.isdgroup.com/en/examples-from-practice) ![Anna Böcker, Marketing & Communication](https://blog.isdgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Foto%20anna%207.jpeg?width=192&height=192&name=Foto%20anna%207.jpeg) Anna Böcker, Marketing & Communication Anna is a content creator for ISD Group.
