Successes include the parametric CAD program CADDS , the CAD / CAM program staff designer / Personal Machinist and the same from Prime Computer displaced MEDUSA , which was used especially in medium-sized machinery.

In 1988 Prime Computer took over the manufacturer of turnkey systems Computervision. Prime was divided into the two pillars Prime Hardware, which was responsible for the proprietary computers, and Prime Computervision, which was responsible for the CAD / CAM business with MEDUSA and CADDS.

After the proprietary PRIMOS computer production was discontinued and the maintenance obligations were transferred to another manufacturer, there was a concentration on the CADCAM software business with renaming from Prime Computervision to Computervision . In 1998, Computervision was taken over by Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC).
