Version Control without Implementation Cost
On‑premise PDM: powerful, but typically expensive to roll out, hard to access remotely, and not always loved by the people who have to use it every day.
Shared folders: quick to start, but revisions, approvals, and “who has the latest” become difficult the moment more than one person is involved.
Sibe is the middle path: cloud PDM built for SolidWorks that gives you real version control and collaboration without the overhead that comes with on-premise PDM. Sibe Cloud PDM does not require any server, deployment cost, or VPN to run version control:
- No server provisioning.
- No VPN required for remote access.
- No “deployment cost and time” before your first version is tracked.
The only cloud PDM with a native Add-in for SolidWorks that doesn't break the bank
Track every version with confidence
Sibe creates a new version when files are checked in, and each version includes who changed it, when it changed, and an optional change note. That means you’re not relying on file renaming conventions or memory to reconstruct what happened.
If your team has ever hunted through v2, v3, and “approved” folders, you already know why this matters.
- Clear version timeline for every file.
- See what changed, when, and by whom.
- Roll back to any previous version.

Prevent accidental overwrites
When an engineer checks out a file, everyone else sees it's locked for editing. No one can save changes over the top. Sibe PDM's check-out / check-in model lets your team work in parallel without losing work.
- Only one engineer can edit a file at a time.
- Everyone else can still view the latest version.
- No confusion when work moves to review.
Lightweight Release Control
You don’t need a complicated workflow diagram to stop revision mistakes. Sibe supports lightweight release control so your team can mark what’s ready for review, what’s approved, and what’s released—without slowing engineering down.
- Simple statuses your team will actually use.
- Clear visibility into what’s safe to manufacture.
- Auditability without extra admin overhead.
Share versions easily with non-CAD reviewers
Version control breaks down fastest when a model leaves the engineering team. Sibe makes it easy to share the latest version for review — no more emailing files back and forth.
Send a secure link for any file or assembly.
Reviewers open files in the browser — no SolidWorks licence needed.
Feedback stays tied to the exact version reviewed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Typically, you can connect SolidWorks and start with a single project quickly (often within 30 minutes) once the add‑in is installed and a workspace is created. During the demo, we’ll show the setup end‑to‑end so you can see what it looks like in real life. Book a demo here.
Sibe supports SolidWorks 2019 through 2026. The connector installs as a standard SolidWorks add‑in, so it’s designed to be straightforward to deploy.
No server provisioning is required, and remote access does not depend on a VPN. That’s one of the main reasons teams use cloud PDM instead of maintaining an on‑prem setup.
Yes, most engineers evaluate Sibe PDM with a subset of files while continuing their current workflow for everything else. This reduces risk and makes it easy to compare day‑to‑day usability before switching anything fully.
Your existing SolidWorks files can be imported into Sibe, and version tracking starts from that point forward. Assemblies that reference parts and drawings are preserved as part of the import so you don’t lose relationships.
No. Sibe tracks file relationships inside the vault, so references stay intact when files are moved or renamed within Sibe PDM.
Sibe uses a check‑out/check‑in approach so when someone is editing a file, others can’t accidentally overwrite it. This reduces conflicts and removes the “who saved last?” risk.
Yes—non‑CAD teammates (and clients) can review via the browser, tied to a specific version, so feedback maps to the exact revision. This helps avoid approvals based on the wrong file export.
Data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and access can be controlled at workspace/project/file level. Sharing links can be permission-scoped and revoked when needed.
Pricing is public and transparent—no “quote-only” gating. You can view plans here: https://www.sibe.io/pricing
