Grace Calls
A Grace Call is a support action we handle at no extra cost, even when your request falls outside standard support scope: quick configuration help, a one-off question, or coaching to level up your team. It is flexibility when you need it most, and something the competition simply does not offer.
Signature pays for itself quickly
Signature costs $150 more per seat than Focus. If it helps your team save just one of these in a year, the upgrade has likely paid for itself.
Learn at your own pace, the moment you need it
Powered by SolidProfessor, the same trusted platform teams already rely on. Signature extends it to a site licence covering up to 3 users.
- ✓430+ on-demand courses, 1,000+ hours of content
- ✓From SOLIDWORKS beginner to certification prep
- ✓Focus: 1 license per SOLIDWORKS license
- ✓Signature: SolidProfessor Site Licence, up to 3 users
Of course it includes support. The difference is who's behind it.
Direct access to certified SolidXperts engineers who understand real design and manufacturing workflows, not a generic queue. With Grace Calls, we help you solve problems faster and keep projects moving, coast to coast.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to be on subscription?
Your subscription is your ongoing relationship with SolidXperts. It keeps your SOLIDWORKS software current, gives you technical support and Cloud Services, and, depending on your plan, unlocks training, tools and coaching that make your investment work for you year after year.
What is the difference between Focus and Signature?
Focus covers the essentials: support, updates, new versions and installation, Cloud Services, Grace Calls, and a SolidProfessor license per SOLIDWORKS license. Signature adds ToolsXperts, PDMxperts, a private SWYM community, the SolidProfessor Site Licence (up to 3 users), two annual Ask a SolidXpert sessions, a $500 training credit, and 20% off services until $5,000 in savings per year.
Why is this separate from my SOLIDWORKS subscription?
Your SOLIDWORKS Subscription Services keep your software current with updates and new releases. Focus and Signature add the expertise, technical support, CAD coaching, productivity tools, and training delivered directly by SolidXperts, helping your team get more value from every SOLIDWORKS license.
How does the services discount work?
With Signature you get 20% off SolidXperts services until you reach $5,000 in total savings for the year. The discount applies across services and resets each year.
What is included in the training credit?
Signature includes a $500 annual credit toward our scheduled SolidXperts training courses. It does not apply to custom or one-on-one training.
