In modern Architecture, engineering, construction and design environments, the pressure is on IT teams to deliver fast, consistent, and secure software setups. Whether you're supporting ten users or ten thousand, manual installation methods simply can’t keep up with the demands of large-scale CAD environments. That’s where CQi (Configuration Intelligence)steps in. At Symetri, we developed CQi to help organisations automate CAD deployment, reduce risk, and maintain standardisation—all without increasing the burden on IT departments. In this blog, we’ll explore how CQi works and why it’s becoming a go-to solution for smarter CAD management.
