Using CAD With Spreadsheets? Here are 3 Reasons Why You Need To Get on OpenBOM Today?

Spreadsheets are the ugly reality of every engineering team, prototyping activity, and manufacturing company. You can find them everywhere, but quite honestly, spreadsheets create a big headache for engineers, procurement managers, operation and maintenance people. 

At OpenBOM we are laser-focused on how to help everyone get rid of messy spreadsheets, organize their data (Items, Bill of Materials), keep track of revisions, history, organize cost calculations and manage purchase orders. 

Why Purchase OpenBOM Professional User Now Until 2021? 

Today, we want to talk about 3 reasons why you should get on OpenBOM right now until the end of 2021. 

  1. Integrated with any CAD system 
  2. Revision control, rollup calculations, and data sharing 
  3. Managing vendors, inventory, and purchase orders 

All the functionality listed above can be gotten for $300 / year if you subscribe before December 31st, 2021. We just got a new release and subscription updates. The price will go up next year (new price is $650 / year for professional users). This is why it is a no-brainer deal. 

What do you get in a NEW OpenBOM Professional User subscription? 

We prepared a demo for you. In this video, our own Tom Landrey will speak about why everyone who uses CAD system (eg. SOLIDWORKS) and manages BOMs and procurement using spreadsheet should purchase an OpenBOM professional user subscription right now (until the end of 2021) because what you get here is unique and the ROI is literally instant!

Conclusion

The new OpenBOM release and updates in subscription should make the purchasing of OpenBOM professional user subscription now in December 2021, really attractive. The combination of functions gives you a lightspeed ROI and provides you with a unique set of features compared to any other system on the market. And this is before even mentioning OpenBOM Drive, which is currently in Beta and coming out soon.
