EEforce transforms the way you manage and access your design files by serving as a centralized, secure repository for all your projects. With a few clicks, you can access your entire design library, eliminating the need for scattered files and manual searches. The platform provides a seamless user experience, ensuring that you can retrieve and work on your designs anytime, from anywhere, with efficiency and ease.
EEforce offers flexible, robust authentication through both password login and LDAP integration, giving organizations the freedom to choose their preferred method for managing user access. LDAP integration allows for centralized control, scalability, and seamless interoperability with existing IT infrastructure. EEforce also enables fine-tuned access permissions, ensuring that only authorized personnel can view or modify specific projects. This dual-layered security framework strengthens data protection and prevents unauthorized access, ensuring that your intellectual property remains safe.
EEforce fosters a collaborative environment where multiple users work on the same platform, promoting consistency and reducing cycle times. Centralized file storage simplifies project management and guarantees that team members always have access to the most up-to-date version of the design. Each time a user checks in a project, a new version is securely stored, creating an easily accessible version history. This not only ensures seamless collaboration but also protects against data loss due to unforeseen issues, allowing users to revert to any previous version with confidence.
Engineered for optimal security and performance, EEforce employs a file-system-based storage method that allows for fast check-ins, check-outs, and project browsing. Unlike traditional tools like Teamcenter, EDM, or Git, EEforce excels in performance without compromising on security. It supports incremental backups and easy recovery, giving you peace of mind without the complexity of managing additional database systems. The platform’s superior speed and responsiveness make it a clear leader in design data management.
EEforce empowers users with full control over their design history. Each time a design is checked in, a new version is automatically generated, allowing users to keep track of even the smallest changes. With the ability to manage an unlimited number of versions, reverting to previous iterations is both effortless and secure. This robust version control system ensures that your designs evolve smoothly while minimizing the risk of errors, giving you confidence in your project’s integrity.
EEforce simplifies project management for supervisors and stakeholders with its intuitive built-in preview features. Even without installing PADS or Xpedition, users can easily review design progress and track updates. This functionality not only keeps management informed but also enables efficient decision-making and streamlined communication between teams. The user-friendly interface makes it accessible to a wider audience, allowing for better project visibility and control across the board.
EEforce is crafted specifically for PCB designers, especially the ones using Xpedition Enterprise and PADS Professional. With the deep expertise in Xpedition, PADS Pro and the version control solutions like TFS, GIT, SVN, Teamcenter and EDM systems, we were able to take the best parts of such platforms and develop EEforce to addresses the specific challenges with the PCB Design environment.
EEforce offers swift performance with a lightweight, efficient design. It ensures quick check-ins, check-outs, and project browsing without draining system resources. Designed for speed and stability, EEforce keeps your workflow smooth and uninterrupted.
EEforce combines an intuitive interface with advanced features, making it easy to use while offering robust capabilities. It simplifies design management without sacrificing the power needed to handle complex projects efficiently.
EEforce effortlessly generates and displays previews from Xpedition and PADS Pro designs within its integrated preview screen. This feature simplifies design reviews by enabling users to quickly assess their projects without needing to launch the design software, saving time and improving workflow efficiency.

EEforce Server is a cutting-edge combination of technologies and security measures, with a strong focus on data backup and recovery. It provides a secure and reliable platform for storing your valuable design files. Moreover, EEforce Server is highly efficient in resource utilization. Even a virtual machine with 4GB RAM would be sufficient to support a team of 6 designers who are continuously working on PCB designs.
EEforce provides separate installation tools for both server and client components, making the setup process straightforward. This design ensures simplicity and ease of use for users during deployment. Whether you are installing the server or client, EEforce's installation tools streamline the process, allowing you to get up and running quickly with minimal effort.
EEForce offers the flexibility to utilize both LDAP and Password Authentication for Server-Client communication. For organizations with an Active Directory, EEForce enables the option to enable LDAP, allowing users to seamlessly utilize their existing accounts and passwords.
