PTC Creo Information Vendor: PTC, web site. Visit PTC's web page dedicated to educators and students. Category: 3-d CAD/CAM/CAE Local Usage Information The current version of PTC Creo is 2.0. That version cannot convert models to the commercial version, as dicussed below. Broad Participation: CREO is a carefully selected but heterogeneous network. It is designed with an open-architecture structure, as opposed to a closed private club, which lends a richness to the family office participant experience. For more information on CREO Syndicate, we encourage you to contact us. Creo 7.0 is a 3D CAD solution that helps you build better products faster by accelerating product innovation, reusing the best of your design and replacing assumptions with facts. Design software that enables companies to unlock potential within their organizations. It is a comprehensive 2D and 3D parametric platform designed to support organizations who want to stay competitive in the market and design the product of the future.
Creo runs on Microsoft Windows and provides apps for 3D CAD parametric featuresolid modeling, 3D direct modeling, 2D orthographic views, Finite Element Analysis and simulation, schematic design, technical illustrations, and viewing and visualization.
Creo Elements and Creo Parametric compete directly with CATIA, Siemens NX/Solidedge, and SolidWorks. The Creo suite of apps replace and supersede PTC’s products formerly known as Pro/ENGINEER, CoCreate, and ProductView. Creo has many different software package solutions and features. Creo Illustrate is a good example.
PTC began developing Creo in 2009, and announced it using the code name Project Lightning at PlanetPTC Live, in Las Vegas, in June 2010.[2] In October 2010, PTC unveiled the product name for Project Lightning to be Creo.[3] PTC released Creo 1.0 in June 2011.[4]
Creo apps are available in English, German, Russian, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese Simplified, and Chinese Traditional. The extent of localization varies from full translation of the product (including Help) to user interface only.

Creo is part of a broader product development system developed by PTC. It connects to PTC’s other solutions that aid product development, including Windchill for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Mathcad for engineering calculations and Arbortext for enterprise publishing software.
