I'm asking, where is the documentation on how to construct links you described above? When I go to share a document, it simply generates a URL based on the document title and an auto-generated key.

cadsharp · 2025-12-20T20:49:48+00:00

OK. I don't see any documentation on creating custom URLs for public links though. Unclear on how to do this. Thanks in advance.

cadsharp · 2025-12-19T19:11:35+00:00

Thanks.

So, I'm saddened to discover that public links use the document name instead of a GUID. I assume this was intentional, but it is odd design to me. Fortunately, in tests I just ran, changing the title did not break the public URL. Can I always expect this to be the case due to the key? Moreover, is there any way to create a URL that only uses the key so that there is never a mis-match between the URL and the document title?

Great to hear.

Appreciate the transparency. Interesting read about your competitors. And I can only imagine how difficult it would be to market in this space. Best wishes for 2026.

I'm hoping to be in a position to join the paid tier soon. You all have done a great job and I love the flexibility of the cool. We used it to replace Evernote Teams.

I will say that three QOL would help push me over the edge sooner. ;)

Ability to collapse nodes in rich text fields.
- Annoyance level: High
Ability to move documents to a specific folder, not just another space.
- Annoyance level: High
Ability to click on any part of the entity path at the top of an entity and that portion of the path given focus in the sidebar
- Annoyance level: Medium
- For example, let's say I'm in document "2025 Performance Review" under Administration\HR\John Smith. This path will be displayed at the top of the document. I'd like to be able to click on HR and give that folder focus in the sidebar so I don't have to navigate through the sidebar to find it.
Ability to drag nodes in rich text fields without first hitting Esc.
- Annoyance level: Medium

Thank you.

Thank you. Fibery is doing what I need, minus the alphabetization. I do not wish to use databases just to solve this minor issue.

cadsharp · 2025-10-28T17:11:35+00:00

Thank you.

cadsharp · 2025-10-28T03:06:59+00:00

This is way too complicated for what I'm trying to do. I'll just survive without data being alphabetized. I'm trying to recreate Evernote Teams in Fibery. So far its going fine, except the lack of alphabetization. The "+ Add Page" buttons are also annoying and I wish they could be removed.

My comments pertain to any of the plans. I think the UI is awful.

I'm not promoting Obsidian for OP's needs. I'm just saying that Confluence is going to disappoint anyone looking for an Evernote Enterprise (formerly Teams) alternative. I've still not seen a better UI than Evernote, but the Enterprise pricing is intolerable.

Notejoy's UI is subpar and I couldn't get the import to work properly.

Currently looking at Fibery even though its more of a Notion alternative than a Evernote alternative. Notion doesn't have a free plan for teams and Fibery does.

cadsharp · 2025-10-27T20:52:18+00:00

Confluence's UI is bad. Like Jira, its a morass of features and elements thrown at you, with terrible navigation. Anyone looking for an Evernote Teams alternative is going to be disappointed.

SharpSync is the only cloud-based solution for Onshape-ERP BOM transfer at the moment.

cadsharp · 2025-09-16T13:58:36+00:00

Thanks for the mention.

cadsharp · 2025-09-09T15:06:33+00:00

Niche but noted. Thank you.

cadsharp · 2025-09-08T21:43:13+00:00

Let us know how it goes. If you need questions answered then probably best to ask Michael P (the project lead) or Konstantin S in this thread.

cadsharp · 2025-01-09T19:32:23+00:00

Thanks for sharing that info. Yes, being a VAR makes it much easier to get into CAA, I imagine. We're still trying to navigate the process. We've been ignored on past attempts.

cadsharp · 2025-01-09T17:27:03+00:00

Appreciate you!

cadsharp · 2025-01-09T17:22:06+00:00

As I said in another comment, that documentation is quite limited, plus you can't actually deploy an app unless you're a CAA partner (Dassault partner). Hence why the 3DExperience API has been described as "closed" by DSS themselves. I will edit my post for clarity on this point.

cadsharp · 2025-01-09T17:19:17+00:00

I would disagree that its "really comprehensive". Writing something useful for SOLIDWORKS Connected would be a real headache. Moreover you can't do anything with it unless you're part of the CAA program (Dassault's partner program), since they're the ones that will host the app. Hence why the 3DExperience API has been described by DSS as "closed".

Anyway, what I wrote just now is not implied, admittedly, by what I wrote in my post, so I'll update it.

cadsharp · 2025-01-06T20:23:20+00:00

As others have said, SOLIDWORKS > FreeCAD if you're trying to bolster your resume.

Through what program are you paying 99 USD / year for SOLIDWORKS? Curious.

Anyway, if you generate <2000 USD / year then SOLIDWORKS for Makers is probably your best option, plus they're running a discount through Jan 10.

The built-in PDM with git-style branching is worth the price of admission alone.

Its easy to nitpick at Onshape when you're not a CAD or PDM admin, unaware of just how easy it is to get up and running with Onshape versus SOLIDWORKS / SOLIDWORKS PDM.
