Sign industry using Solidworks

Hello everyone,

This is my first time posting, so let's hope I do this correctly.  I was just hired by a sign company to move us foward with using Solidworks instead of AutoCAD.  Does anyone have any experience in the sign idustry that could offer some advise for someone new to the field.  I have been using Solidworks for a year and a half, but I am not sure how it might benefit our company.

Also, we are using an ERP system, M1.  How can Solidworks and M1 communicate with each other?

I appreciate everyone's time and hope I can get some advise soon.
