Dassault Systèmes Announces New Software Release; Increases Multi-Version Interoperability

V5-6R2013 Adds More Capabilities and Simplifies Data Compatibility for Customers’ Extended Ecosystems

VÉLIZY-VILLACOUBLAY, France — (BUSINESS WIRE) — March 20, 2013Dassault Systèmes (Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY.PA), the 3DEXPERIENCE Company, world leader in 3D design software, 3D Digital Mock Up and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solutions, today announced the general availability of the latest release of its Version 5 PLM applications.

Today’s V5-6R2013 release adds new composite fiber modeling technology (based on the recently acquired Simulayt), increased openness and standards support and enhanced high-end surface modeling capabilities. The new release also includes additions to the groundbreaking V6-to-V5 multi-version compatibility announced last year, further enabling internal and external V6-V5 collaboration. V5-6R2013 includes nearly 40 new 3DEXPERIENCE technologies originally from V6R2013 and V6R2013x.

“Today’s announced enhancements bring a whole new level of capability to our V5 install base. It is rich in features, functions, and new products. At the same time, we are thinking far beyond that,” said Dominique Florack, Senior Executive Vice President, Products, R&D, Dassault Systèmes. “We are considering how our customers develop their products and their own customers’ experiences, how they work with suppliers regardless of version, and how they adopt new software over time.”

More specifically:

“We have a large customer base and they have a variety of solutions from us that enable the creation of enticing, delightful products and experiences,” said Monica Menghini, Executive Vice President, Industry and Marketing, Dassault Systèmes. “We have a responsibility to bring the latest innovative technologies to them, regardless of what 3DEXPERIENCE solutions they are using. At the highest level, version names, ‘V4,’ ‘V5,’ ‘V6,’ should be irrelevant. It doesn’t matter what version is indicated on the screen. We will make sure our customers succeed, offering them the ability to work with their ecosystems and adopt new, innovative technologies at their own pace.”
