Peer-to-peer from Pro/E or Net Meeting or something else.
(OP)
I need some help. Most of my customer are distance customers- more than an hour drive. I have to communicate my designs via Webex. The number of net meetings I use have gotten expensive. I have experimented with Microsoft NetMeeting with limited result. Pro/E has software call Peer-to-peer. I just heard about it. Could someone describe this software in detail. To use Netmeeting I have to change PRo/E graphics to a windows driver to make it work. It works but poorly. Is there another program that I can use to the equivalent of NetMeeting or Webex.
Thanks Texaspete

I think the colaboration stuff is an option during instalation so you may not have to install it to try it.

Do you trust you intuition or go with the flow?

Groove Networks, the creators of the platform on which Pro/E Wildfire's collaboration tools are based, was just purchased by Microsoft. The article mentions integration of Groove software into the Longhorn OS, which is supposed to come out next year.
I dont think any of us will be running a brand new release of Pro/E on a brand new release of Windows if we ever wanted to get anything done :) But, it's a peek into where things might be going...

Essentially, you share a Pro/E session with your customer (so they have to have everything set up on their end...) At the beginning of the session, they open the files you are working on, in an encrypted form. The client essentially opens the file on their machine, using their own computer to do all the graphical stuff. Your session is linked to theirs by sending commands back and forth (i.e. spin the model, change dimensions, etc). You can give them control of the session to allow them to make changes if need be.
I've seen it work, and it's pretty slick. The major technical obstacle I see for you is getting it set up on the other end.
