In both ordered and synchronous mode Solid Edge offers very powerful, easy yet stable modeling in hybrid surface/solid mode, where "Rapid Blue" technology helps the user to create complex shapes in an intuitive and easy way. This is typically called "history" or "regeneration based" modeling. The drawback is that the user does not see how the edit will interact with the subsequent features. When editing, the model is "rolled back" to the point where the feature was created so that the user cannot try to apply constraints to geometry that does not yet exist. Each subsequent feature is built on the previous feature. The ordered modeling process begins with a base feature controlled by a 2D sketch, which is either a linear, revolved, lofted, or swept extrusion.
Since September 2006, Siemens has also offered a free 2D version called Solid Edge 2D Drafting. UGS company was renamed Siemens PLM Software on October 1, 2007. In 2007, UGS was acquired by the Automation & Drives Division of Siemens AG. In 1998 it was purchased and further developed by UGS Corp (the purchase date corresponds to the kernel swap).
Originally developed and released by Intergraph in 1996 using the ACIS geometric modeling kernel it later changed to using the Parasolid kernel. Through third party applications it has links to many other Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) technologies.

It runs on Microsoft Windows and provides solid modeling, assembly modelling and 2D orthographic view functionality for mechanical designers. Solid Edge is a 3D CAD, parametric feature (history based) and synchronous technology solid modeling software.
