Are Many Professional Jobs Using Onshape?

Unread post by Cbecks Design »

A couple years ago I thought about switching from SolidWorks to Onshape.
But a quick search for engineering jobs across the U.S. indicated pretty much nobody was using it.

Are there many jobs using Onshape today?

Not sure where they are at in user base but it seems more people are less willing to manage their own software/servers/hardware/training. With mobility and online collaboration software using browsers (non OS dependent) becoming more common, it and others are gaining their niche.
I may, not sure, get a chance to work with it. It will be interesting to experience how far it has come and how well it works.
I'd keep looking.

Not too many @Cbecks Design, but here is a link to a few. Looks like mainly Trek bikes and Formlabs.
