Why Choose Autodesk Vault?

Whether you are part of a small design team or a large engineering department, Autodesk Vault can transform the way you work. Here are the top five benefits highlighted in our video:

1. Stay Organised and In Control

Design files scattered across different folders or drives can cause confusion and errors. Autodesk Vault centralises all your files in one structured location, ensuring you always know where your designs are. Say goodbye to duplicate files, lost revisions, and version conflicts.

2. Seamless Team Collaboration

When multiple users work on the same project, mistakes and overwritten files can slow progress. Vault allows teams to collaborate efficiently by managing concurrent edits, providing automated approval workflows, and simplifying project handovers.

3. Secure and Scalable Data Management

Not every team member needs access to all files. Vault lets you set precise permissions to protect sensitive information while giving the right people access. As your business grows, Vault scales effortlessly to meet your expanding data management needs.

4. Built for Multi-CAD Environments

Vault is not limited to Autodesk products. While it integrates directly with Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD, Revit, and more, it also supports other popular CAD systems such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD Electrical, and Civil 3D. This makes Vault a versatile solution for companies that use multiple CAD platforms, enabling you to manage all design files in one place without switching between different systems.

5. Save Time and Reduce Errors

Searching for files or fixing mistakes is costly in both time and resources. Vault’s powerful search tools, automated revision tracking, and Bill of Materials (BOM) management help you work faster and minimise errors.
