Simcenter STAR-CCM+ Accessing Simcenter STAR-CCM+ Community Information from Support Center

Introduction to the Simcenter STAR-CCM+ Community

The Simcenter STAR-CCM+ Community is a vibrant forum where users can share experiences, ask product questions, and engage in discussions about Simcenter STAR-CCM+. It's a collaborative space where users of all levels can contribute and benefit from shared knowledge.

Key aspects of the community include:

1. A platform for sharing experiences and asking product-related questions
2. Access to knowledge posts written by experts and community members
3. Information about Simcenter STAR-CCM+ on the cloud (Simcenter X)
4. Updates on new features and developments in Simcenter STAR-CCM+

While the community is an excellent resource for peer-to-peer support and knowledge sharing, it does not replace official technical support. For technical issues, users should consult the Support Center or contact their Siemens partner/reseller if they have a maintenance agreement. (Instructions for accessing our Support Center are on our YouTube Channel.)
