What Manufacturing Teams Are Saying
We didn’t need a full-blown PLM
We just needed reliable control over drawings and technical documents.
We kept using our CAD and folders
No disruption — just added version control and access logs on top.
Lots of people view drawings, only a few edit them
ASTRA PDM is clearly built with that reality in mind.
We used to be unsure which version was final
Now we know who approved what, and what exactly changed.
Clear Status Tracking
Track document states like ‘Draft → For Review → Approved’
so everyone knows what’s ready and what’s not.
Reliable Version History
Each update is recorded with timestamp and user.
Go back to older versions anytime — no confusion, no overwrites.
Simple Access Management
Easily control who can upload, edit, or just view.
Great for teams with mixed technical roles.
Engineering-Grade Review and Approval Flow
From upload to approval, ASTRA PDM streamlines the full lifecycle of drawing and spec review —
including CAD viewing, commenting, and version control in one integrated system.
Tired of Sharing Folders That Lose Track of Drawings?
Too Small for PLM, but Too Complex for Chaos?
without the cost or burden of a full PLM suite.
From version history to CAD viewing and real-world approvals,
we help teams manage their engineering files clearly and securely.
Let’s talk about how your team works — and how ASTRA PDM can support it.
