Description

Frost Radar™: Mechanical Computer-aided Design, 2025


A Benchmarking System to Spark Companies to Action - Innovation that Fuels New Deal Flow and Growth Pipelines

The Frost Radar™ on mechanical computer-aided design (MCAD) offers a competitive benchmark analysis derived from Frost & Sullivan’s CAD Growth Opportunities report. It ranks eight companies on their growth potential and ability to innovate.

MCAD revenue amounted to $6.4 billion in 2023. Frost & Sullivan expects revenue to reach $10.46 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate of 7.3%. Drivers include the presence of smart products across industries that places complex demands on vendors regarding mechanical and electronic CAD integration; the demand to reduce products’ environmental impact (a process in which the design stage plays a key role); and new technologies, such as generative design and additive manufacturing, that are disrupting product design. Affordable and flexible SaaS deployment allows vendors to reach new market segments and niches.

MCAD vendors’ growth strategies in a concentrated market mostly revolve around the development of strong portfolios and integrations that increase their offerings' capabilities; the creation of expansive ecosystems that include strategic partnerships with key technology providers to incorporate new features in their offerings and agreements with value-added resellers that can provide specialized services and help companies extend their geographic reach; and compelling packages for small and medium-sized businesses and students that lower the barriers to entry through special pricing and training.

Frost & Sullivan analyzes numerous companies in an industry. Those selected for further analysis based on their leadership or other distinctions are benchmarked across 10 Growth and Innovation criteria to reveal their position on the Frost Radar™. The publication presents competitive profiles of each company on the Frost Radar™ considering their strengths and the opportunities that best fit those strengths.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
