Working remotely? Helpful info for our CADWorx & Analysis Customers
Due to recent government directives around the COVID-19 virus, the global workforce is – where possible – working from home.
Whether you are taking home a workstation or laptop with software installed, installing on a personal machine or remoting in, below are some recommendations to optimize working remotely with CADWorx & Analysis Solutions and ensure the least amount of disruption to your workflow.
The most challenging aspects of an at-home workflow are licensing and file access/sharing.
Licensing
• HASP
* Stand-alone (local) locks can be carried out of the office.
* Network HASP licenses are accessible remotely through VPN.
• SPLM
* SPLM licenses are accessible remotely through VPN.
* SPLM licenses can be checked out to a machine for offline or remote work.
• ISL
* ISL licenses are accessible through any standard internet connection.
* ISL licenses can be checked out to a machine for offline or remote work.
File/Work Sharing
• VPN – can work well but is much more dependent on ISP/WAN performance than a local redundancy system like the cloud-based solutions below.
• Third-party cloud-based file shares like OneDrive or Dropbox.
• Hexagon’s own Bricsys 24/7 as not only file share but also an overall document management solution.
