message: How do You pronounce it?
:It's "CAT-E-AH".  Someone who knows how to use those funky pronunciation symbols can add that to the main article. StuRat 14:51, 11 September 2005 (UTC)

message: Catia all by itself is not a PLM software.  For that you have software like VPM, SmarTeam, Delmia, etc.  These type of programs are used to manage the files created by a software like Catia or SolidWorks.  PLM is about managing the data of a project.  Catia doesn't do that.  I suggest removing the reference to PLM for the sake of this article. 65.220.113.252 19:12, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

text: Without even a range for pricing I would argue that this page does not belong in Wikipedia.  It's like not listing the time for world record for the 100m sprint, just saying, yes a fast time for it does exist.  Without a price it just isn't comparable with any other software.

message: I removed the reference to CATIA beeing the cause of A380. A380 is not a CATIA V5 based project, it is a project based on tools used prior to the cATIA V5 migration, as stated by Theorem in this paper: . CADALYST article used as reference to support the claims is self described as beeing based on blogs and PTC claims targetting Dassault Systemes, its competitor on the EADS market. --Dwarfpower (talk) 13:42, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

message: User Special:Contributions/75.119.250.1 has quite rightly requested a reference for the claim that conversion from V4 to V5 can result in data loss of up to 90%. I haven't been able to find anything supporting those numbers, but lots of general articles about the fact that file conversion between V4 / V5 and now V6 is a problem with CATIA. I've written to transcendata.com who are one of the companies working with managing this transition. Hopefully I'll hear from them. --duncan.lithgow (talk) 19:02, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

message: In August 2020 a contributor deleted much of this CATIA article, including the "Release history" chart. 
They cited their reason for the major edit was "Rewrote some and removed most to get rid of the feeling of an overlong adverisement"
In the past, I have returned to this article many times just to review the "Release history" chart, and am sorry it is gone. It was helpful for both the "Version History Value" and the "Release Date" columns.
Here is a link to the CATIA page before the "Release History" chart was removed: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=CATIA&oldid=972079673
I have never considered the history of an application an advertisement. Convince me it is.
