What Is ForgeFlow?
ForgeFlow is a cloud-based enterprise application integration product that connects business systems and automates the flow of data between them. It enables structured, bi-directional data exchange so teams can reduce duplicate entry, improve data consistency, and keep information moving across engineering, manufacturing, operations, and business systems.
ForgeFlow is built and maintained by Symetri, an Autodesk Partner with deep Autodesk platform and industry expertise. This gives ForgeFlow a particular advantage when an integration involves Autodesk products, while its reusable framework and configurable workflows can also connect the wider enterprise systems that support each client’s business processes.
ForgeFlow Integration
ForgeFlow provides configurable, system-to-system connectivity across enterprise applications, including ERP, MES, PLM, CRM, and Autodesk products. It supports bi-directional data flow, reusable integration components, and customer-configurable workflows through the Integration Designer interface. Its broad integration capabilities address cross-platform business processes, while Symetri’s Autodesk expertise makes it especially well suited to workflows where Autodesk data and applications are central to the solution.
Enterprise Integration with Autodesk Expertise
ForgeFlow offers the core capabilities organizations expect from an enterprise application integration platform, with an important differentiator for Autodesk customers:
- Enterprise connectivity: connect Autodesk products with ERP, MES, PLM, CRM, and other business applications through configurable, bi-directional data flows.
- Autodesk specialization: ForgeFlow is built and maintained by Symetri, an Autodesk Partner with deep knowledge of Autodesk platforms, data, and workflows.
- Configurability and reuse: proven connectors, actions, and workflows can be adapted to each client’s systems and business processes without rebuilding the solution from scratch.
- Maintained product foundation: Symetri owns and supports the core product, while client-specific configuration or custom development can be added where required.
Who Benefits from ForgeFlow Integration
- Manufacturing and engineering organizations that need Autodesk data connected with ERP, MES, PLM, CRM, or other enterprise platforms
- Teams relying on duplicate data entry, spreadsheets, or manual handoffs between systems
- Organizations that need reliable, bi-directional data synchronization across business-critical workflows
- Autodesk customers weighing a custom integration build against a faster, proven, and maintainable integration foundation
FAQ
What is ForgeFlow?
ForgeFlow is Symetri’s cloud-based enterprise application integration product. It connects applications and enables reliable data flow across business processes. Because it is built and maintained by Symetri, an Autodesk Partner, ForgeFlow is particularly well suited to integrations involving Autodesk products. SolidCAD, a Symetri company, works with clients across Canada to define and deliver ForgeFlow integration solutions.
What systems can ForgeFlow Integration connect?
ForgeFlow Integration can connect Autodesk applications with ERP, MES, PLM, CRM, and other enterprise platforms that expose suitable APIs or supported data interfaces. The right approach depends on the systems involved, the data that needs to move, and the business process the integration must support.
Who owns the code if we use ForgeFlow instead of a custom build?
ForgeFlow is Symetri’s product, built and maintained by Symetri’s development team. Through SolidCAD, you receive a maintained integration platform and reusable framework without taking on ownership of the core product code. Where needed, client-specific configuration or custom development can be added to support unique systems and business requirements.
Is ForgeFlow Integration a custom development project or an off-the-shelf product?
ForgeFlow is an existing, maintained product that provides a proven foundation for system-to-system connectivity. Each implementation is configured around the client’s applications, data, and business processes, with custom development added only where a unique requirement cannot be addressed through the standard framework.
