What Are The Benefits?

Creo is an all-inclusive 3D CAD program that allows engineers and designers to move their products from conception to validation smoothly and efficiently. With advanced simulation tools, Creo users can model and optimize their designs considering weight, performance, cost, and sustainability. By leveraging both parametric modeling and direct modeling, you can make quick design changes without disrupting your entire workflow.

The software’s versatility extends beyond engineering departments. Using a model-based definition, 2D drawings can be replaced by fully annotated 3D models, streamlining manufacturing, inspection, and service for parts and assemblies.

Lower Cost

Lower cost

Your CAD tools can help you save material, labor, and overhead costs. Leverage part optimization tools to reduce material costs. Simplify assembly processes. And use real-time simulation to minimize product failures and scrap.

Creo Parametric

Time to market

Validate designs early in the cycle to avoid rework. Annotated 3D CAD models accelerate downstream activities, helping small teams and large enterprises alike shorten timelines.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    From start-ups to Fortune 500 corporations, Creo supports businesses across industries. With global adoption, Creo serves engineers, manufacturers, and product developers around the world.

    Pro/ENGINEER (Pro/E) was PTC’s original CAD solution. Pro/E was the industry’s first parametric, feature-based solid modeling CAD software, meaning that an adjustment to a single parameter would automatically update the rest of the model. Pro/E was named Technology of the Year by Industry Week in 1992.

    In 2010, Pro/E was renamed Creo, and in 2023, PTC introduced Creo 10, the latest version of this historic CAD software franchise. PTC continues to make improvements to make every day more productive, as well as introduce leading-edge simulation, generative design, and simulation technologies. To learn more about the history of Pro/ENGINEER, click here.

    PTC has invested millions of development dollars and thousands of development hours to improve the usability of Creo. The result is an intuitive CAD solution that is both powerful and easy to learn.

    PTC University provides the best-in-class, instructor-led and self-paced training courses for Creo. A PTC University LEARN Online subscription offers unlimited virtual instructor-led classes for one low cost

    There are many CAD solutions available, but none of them match up to the combined benefits of Creo:

    • Parametric: PTC was the innovator of parametric modeling, and we continue to lead the way with Creo. Parametric modeling captures the design intent, not just the dimensions. When a part is changed, perhaps years later by another engineer, the original design intent is maintained, helping to ensure a quality design.
    • Integrated: Many competitive CAD systems are challenged when a part design is exported to a third-party software and then reimported. With Creo, there are so many deeply integrated design capabilities that the 3D model can be maintained throughout the design process and beyond. With Creo, the design intent and integrity of your model are maintained.
    • Powerful: Creo is recognized as a technology leader. A powerhouse in the world of model-based definition (MBD), Creo is award-winning for breakthroughs in generative design, real-time simulation, and additive manufacturing, to name a few. You may not use all of these technologies today, but Creo has them available when you need them.
    • Easy to use: PTC has invested millions of development dollars and thousands of development hours to make Creo intuitive and easy to use. PTC University offers best-in-class live and virtual, instructor-led and self-paced training courses for Creo, including certification courses and an innovative subscription-based service with unlimited virtual, instructor-led classes.
    • Scalable: Creo is competitively priced for start-ups through major enterprises. Unlike other CAD systems that have distinct CAD systems for different types of customers, Creo companies, customers, and suppliers of all sizes can share data files effortlessly.
    • The PTC family of products: Creo seamlessly integrates with PTC’s suite of market-leading industrial software solutions like Windchill PLM, ThingWorx IoT, and Vuforia AR, just to name a few.
