Four scenarios are possible to perform mechanical engineering:

User profile	Scenario	Authoring tool	Detailed guidance and resources
Mechanical CATIA V5 users	1. Use CATIA V5 only		CATIA V5 Onboarding
	2. Connect to the Cloud Services using CATIA V5 Power'By		CATIA V5 with Cloud Services
	3. Migrate to CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE Mechanical		Transition paths to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
Mechanical "transformative" CATIA V5 users, or NEW users  starting CAD  with CATIA	4. Start with CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE Mechanical		Start CATIA 3DEXPERIENCE for New CATIA users or "transformative" CATIA V5 users

Two paths can be followed to help mechanical users leverage the cloud: 

a. Connect to the cloud through Power'By as a transition step for CATIA V5 users, then switch as a 3DEXPERIENCE user         (scenarios 2 and 3 in the image above)

b. Connect directly to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to access granted roles and Apps (scenario 4 in the image above)
