This year at SolidWorks World in Phoenix, the Top Ten List will be celebrating its 15th anniversary. That’s a whole lot of ideas, so what does it look like when they all come together? Have you ever wondered which Top Ten List idea has been the most popular over the past 15 years? Which major requests are still outstanding? Curious about which releases of SolidWorks have been the best for idea implementation?

To answer those questions – and more – I compiled every SolidWorks World Top Ten List request since the very beginning in 2001. This comprehensive list of all Top Ten List ideas includes data on rankings, first appearance, implementation date, repeat requests, and wait times, along with a few editorial notes and vital statistics. Additionally, I’ve linked to community blog posts about many of the implemented features.

The Top Ten List Data page will be a permanent fixture on this site (you’ll be able to find it on the left sidebar in perpetuity), which I will update as each SolidWorks World takes place. But I’d like to emphasize that this is a community project. I’ve already received help from several members of the SolidWorks community (whose names you can find at the bottom of the list page), and I’ll need more in the future.

There are some rows in the data (highlighted in red) that I haven’t been able to complete. Either because I can’t find out when a feature was implemented (wrap feature, anyone?), the request doesn’t involve SolidWorks itself (Task Manager and Forums requests) or the request it a little too vague (more flexible BOM?). I would greatly appreciate any help in completing this ongoing project. Drop me a comment, and I’ll be sure to include your name in the contributors section.
