SOLIDWORKS engagement report
@SOLIDWORKS - 179K followers on X
Measured over 22 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 17, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 20 interactions against 179K followers, an engagement rate of 0.011%. Measured over 22 original posts, its engagement rate beats 25% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 2.0K times each, and 0.982% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.14% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.73 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 22 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 91% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 204 interactions, about 10x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #3dxw27, #draftsight, #solidworks.

Compared with accounts its own size
SOLIDWORKS's engagement rate beats 25% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 42% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.
Where this sits in the catalog
At 0.011%, SOLIDWORKS sits above the 10th percentile of the 205,261 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 100% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 91% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 100% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 91% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 376 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

Take a look at this impressive 6-axis industrial robot arm from SOLIDWORKS user Syed Ali Ausat Zaidi. The model features a complete mechanical structure with a separate gripper assembly designed to replicate the motion of an industrial robotic manipulator used in automation applications. The assembly includes the base, waist, arm links, wrist mechanism, servo motor mounts, gears, connecting links, gripper base, and gear-driven gripper mechanism. Amazing work, and thank you for sharing!

It is with heavy hearts that we share the loss of a beloved member of our SOLIDWORKS community. Dan Herzberg was an award-winning Senior Mechanical Engineer and a true expert in SOLIDWORKS but to us, he was so much more. For more than 15 years, he was a familiar and beloved presence at 3DEXPERIENCE World and throughout the community. As the Boston SOLIDWORKS User Group Leader, Dan brought people together, shared his knowledge, and built friendships that went far beyond the professional setting. Dan also became the host and organizer of the annual CAD Monkey Dinner, the unofficial start to 3DEXPERIENCE World, a beloved tradition where friends from across SOLIDWORKS community came together each year to reconnect and celebrate the community Dan cared so deeply about. Dan’s expertise, passion, and generosity shaped this community in ways that will be felt for years to come. His impact reached far beyond Boston, inspiring and connecting SOLIDWORKS users around the world. His legacy lives on in the people he encouraged, the friendships he brought together, and the knowledge that continues to pass from one user to another. We are currently working on a permanent way to honor his legacy at World, and we will share more details soon. Rest easy, Dan. #SWUGN

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 20 interactions against 179K followers, an engagement rate of 0.011%. Measured over 22 original posts, its engagement rate beats 25% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 2.0K times each, and 0.982% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.14% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.73 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 22 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 91% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 204 interactions, about 10x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #3dxw27, #draftsight, #solidworks.
- What is SOLIDWORKS's engagement rate on X?
- SOLIDWORKS (@SOLIDWORKS) has an engagement rate of 0.011%, based on the median interactions across 22 original posts from the last 30 days against 178,953 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.011%, SOLIDWORKS sits above the 10th percentile of the 205,261 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @SOLIDWORKS have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 25% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @SOLIDWORKS post?
- Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.73 posts per day across the measured window.
