'''List of [[CAx]] companies ''' and their software products.
Software using '''computer-aided''' technologies (CAx) has been produced since the 1970s through to the present for a variety of [[computer platform]]s. This software may include applications for [[Computer-aided design|Computer-Aided Design]] (CAD), [[Computer-aided engineering]] (CAE), [[Computer-aided manufacturing]] (CAM) and [[Product Data Management]] (PDM).
The list is far from complete or representative as the CAD business landscape is very dynamic: almost every month new companies appear, old companies go out of business, companies split and merge. Sometimes some names disappear and reappear again.
:''This list is sorted by company name. Refer to: '' [[:Category:Computer-aided design software]] '' , [[:Category:Computer-aided manufacturing software]] and [[:Category:Computer-aided engineering software]] for lists sorted by software name ''.
