Product News - 

CAEPIPE 3D+ will replace CAEPIPE

On November 6, SST Systems announced that CAEPIPE has reached the end of its lifecycle. As a result, sales and leasing of CAEPIPE have been discontinued, and it has been replaced by its sister product, CAEPIPE3D+. CAEPIPE3D+ is a product suite in which CAEPIPE remains the main tool, so the change will not be very significant for current CAEPIPE users.

Current CAEPIPE customers with valid maintenance and support agreements will not be affected until their licenses are renewed. Over the coming year, all existing customers will receive information well before their renewal dates.


If you would like to learn more about CAEPIPE3D+, please click here for more details: (click here)


You can also find SST Systems’ statement from November 6, which provides background and explains the implications of these changes, here:  (click here)
