LEUVEN, Belgium and TROY, MI, Aug 12, 2025 – Engineering teams face pressure to turn complex simulation data into clear, fast decisions. Noesis Solutions and VCollab are integrating id8 with 3D CAE visualization to streamline how those decisions are analyzed and shared. The integration combines id8, a cloud-native collaborative engineering platform with VCollab’s 3D CAE visualization capabilities. This integration enables teams to compare design alternatives, interpret simulation results, and support decision-making across industries such as automotive, aerospace, and industrial equipment.
The id8 engineering platform allows users to convert verified engineering data into actionable, data-driven decisions in a collaborative and scalable environment. When combined with VCollab’s 3D visualization tools, the platform enables teams to interpret simulation results accurately, assess design trade-offs, and make decisions throughout the product development cycle.
“This partnership with VCollab is a step towards realizing our vision of accelerating digital innovation through intelligent engineering,” said Georgios Papantonakis, chief executive officer, Noesis Solutions. “By integrating VCollab’s advanced 3D visualization into our id8 platform, we strengthen engineering organizations to extract actionable insights, and scale decision-making across global operations. With this, we aim to enable engineering organizations to reduce complexity, compress development cycles, and drive down costs through a smarter, connected, and more collaborative approach to simulation.”
Prasad Mandava, CEO at VCollab, added: “This partnership combines Noesis’ strength in data-driven engineering design strategy with our visualization expertise to deliver deeper insights and improve collaboration between analysts, designers, and decision-makers.”
Key Benefits of the Integration:
- Visualization of simulation results within id8: Direct access to 3D results from structural, thermal, and multiphysics simulations.
- Enhanced trade-off analysis: Engineers can visually compare design alternatives and simulation outcomes through intuitive, interactive dashboards.
- Improved team collaboration: Non-experts can interpret simulation data, driving communication across product development teams.
- Faster design iterations: Real-time feedback loops between simulation and design exploration accelerate innovation cycles.
The integrated solution will be available to customers beginning Q3 2025.
