I-Cubed is developing a customer driven migration solution for Pro/I 3.x customers and is actively seeking partners and beta customers. The solution being developed is a customer driven solution as opposed to a services driven solution.

For the beta program I-Cubed is looking for customers who want to go from Pro/I 3.4 to Windchill PDMLink 9, have around 5,000-20,000 files, and a do-it-yourself attitude. Latest only CAD data migration is a requirement for the beta program.

A customer who signs-up for the beta program will receive our software and our dedicated support to walk them through their entire migration. We are limiting the beta period to 15 customers.
