Transformation
ZWSOFT was founded in 1998, during the expansion of global informatisation. In the early years, ZWSOFT had been developing as one of the two largest national software companies in decoration design. It was in 2002 when ZWSOFT released its first self-developed CAD platform – ZWCAD. With its cost-effective predominance, ZWCAD attracted great attention and recognition. Then, by the end of year 2005, 95% of the company’s revenue was earned by the CAD platform of ZWSOFT.

As a result, the company achieved its thorough transformation from a CAD application developer to a CAD platform supplier.

Development
After its transformation, ZWSOFT began to highly increase its investment on the R&D (Research and Development) of the CAD platform – ZWCAD. Having successfully planted R&D centers in Guangzhou and Wuhan, ZWSOFT devoted a lot of resources. So far, the R&D team has expanded to more than 150 engineers working at improving the CAD platform, solving the technical problems of customers, APIs, etc.
In order to power its technological strength and reach the international standard, ZWSOFT purchased many advanced technologies and cooperated with many world-known enterprises such as Dassault, Microsoft, Spatial, Open Design Alliance and Intel.

Successfully competing in China, ZWSOFT has also made great progress in the international market. In 2004, ZWSOFT launched its first overseas activities by exporting ZWCAD to Taiwan, Hongkong, Singapore and other Southeast Asian Countries. In July of that year, Overseas Department of ZWSOFT was officially established. Then the company entered and explored the western markets such as France, America and Portugal in June, 2006. At almost the same time, ZWSOFT made its way into the most competitive and most localized market in Asia—Japan.
