Can anyone assist me in finding a software that can handle CAD files as well as office documents for all departments in the company. I used Smarteam before but as far as ease of setup, are there any other sofwares in the market that can provide file managements and giving all departments the ability to view the files. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

We have SolidWorks and AutoCAD and have found that PDMWorks Workgroup is a fairly simple system to setup and administer. There are several types of client. The SolidWorks add-in which allows the check in of SolidWorks files. PDMWorks Workgroup Contributor, which allow check in of non SolidWorks files. The Web Portal allows users around the business to access any document that you want them to see. There is also an API to allow custom integrations. Having said all that, if you use other 3D CAD systems instead or as well as SolidWorks, PDMWorks Enterprise may be what you need. This is a product that SolidWorks have recently purchased (previously called Conisio). Due to increasing requirements we are currently migrating from PDM Workgroup to Enterprise. Have a look on the Web. There is plenty of info about these two products. If I can help in any way, let me know.
Kind regards.

sg20,
Years ago I took a class for a program called AutoEDMS which is put out by AEC Software . I heard recently that they were working on the code to make it work with SolidWorks files but I could not tell you if they completed that yet. When I took their class (10 years ago) it seemed to me to be a good user interface that could be customized for your specific needs. I can't tell you much more but I think it's worth a look.
