IOWA CITY, IA - MetaCommunications today announced the immediate release and availability of Workgroups 2010 Package 162.3 upgrade, featuring built-in support for AutoCAD products.

The new release continues to extend the capability of Workgroups 2010 within technical design groups. "We have a number of design teams using AutoCAD across a range of industries from Engineering and Architecture to Manufacturing, Media, and Entertainment. These teams needed a better way to work through their projects with each other and with their clients. Workgroups 2010 provides the built in integration with AutoCAD so that designers can access their project and design information right from within their AutoCAD application, documents can easily be routed for review across teams and with customers, and everyone can stay on the same page with an integrated automatic workflow engine."

The built in integration with AutoCAD provides designers with a built-in interface for interacting with their Workgroups 2010 project workflow, management and collaboration systems. From within the familiar AutoCAD environment, designers can look up digital resource information, drill down to project information, and see information on placed files. Alternatively, designers working in Workgroups 2010 can quickly find their files by project, location, or even by currently assigned activity. With Workgroups 2010, AutoCAD has the team collaboration, workflow, and project management tools that allow design teams to work together at maximum efficiency while keeping everyone on the same page.
