Viewing and mark-up tools are also built within the team management platform, resulting in easier (and faster) cycles of revisions and approvals.

It’s also a platform which encourages collaboration even from remote colleagues and clients, granting third parties access to your files from any web-connected device which can help shorten waiting time in design life cycles and accelerate production time to market. It also uses cloud-based services to simplify compute-intensive tasks including rendering your design projects and FEA studies and give you the freedom to use your time for more productive tasks. The software’s integrated document management system backs up all your work in progress in your Team account making it easier to work hassle-free in different locations. Since its license is tied to your Autodesk login (and not the device you’re currently using), worrying about a specific operating system won't be a problem. The program is also integrated with CAM, letting you manufacture the final design parts needed. To check and validate your designs, there are Simulation and Shape Optimisation features in this CAD program. Drawing, Rendering, and 3D-Printed output are available for design validation, documentation, and prototyping. Parametric and Direct, Solid and Surface, T-spline and Mesh geometry import, creation and export are all supported within the program. The combination of CAD, CAM, FEA, and documentation leads to an easier flow of different design phases and presentation graphics without the trouble of learning separate software packages.

It consists of tools that support an entire design-to-manufacture process within one Computer-Aided Design (CAD) package. The program is a fusion of CAD/CAM/CAE tools delivered in a cloud platform. Fusion 360 is one of the better design tools which every CAD user should have in their own toolbox.
