How SIMILIA AI supports DORST Technologies in daily operations

“SIMILIA underwent extensive testing on our side. The performance of the 3D data search engine is excellent. Combined with system-independent visualization, it supports our users across different departments. It is used both in design and in purchasing.
We have now been using SIMILIA for several years, keeping our entire material master — even for non-drawing items — fully searchable. SIMILIA is a highly convincing software solution.”
