Tolgay said the following about the community, “Autodesk Community is the best place out there to learn about the software from the basics to the very advanced topics. I started using Autodesk products in 2016 and quickly adapted myself to solve all my issues by reading forum posts. Then thanks to Autodesk Turkish Community, I got invited to be a member and I started to share my own experience about programming and using Fusion 360 and Inventor. Sharing knowledge is one of the best ways to learn so I decided to keep on doing it. Because of the community efforts I met with lots of like minded people and also attended two Autodesk Universities and also gave some speeches. In 2020 and 2021, our team got awarded with Forge Hackathon prizes. I really can’t thank enough to Autodesk Community since it was the first place I understood how a real community can get a person to use a product. Without a doubt, Autodesk Community is one of the best software communities out there. Unless there was one, I wouldn’t be able to solve my problems with the software workflows and probably quit using the software a long time ago.”
Kivanc expressed his thoughts as follows, “I’ve been in this great community since 2019. Our business Codeo has grown a lot during this period. It’s not a coincidence. We learned about Inventor, Fusion360, Autodesk CFD, Forge from the community. Then we contributed to the community and the community supported us. We became what we aim. I proudly had my fourth AU experience as a speaker this year. This is a perfect example of growth on both a personal and business basis. Thanks to the community! It’s fantastic to be a part of a great community!”
Codeo is focused on sustainability and helps engineer-to-order companies eliminate wasteful processes when it comes to CPQ (configure-price-quote), design, and PDM (product data management).
