PLM Software in Discrete Manufacturing Industries Reviews and Ratings

What are PLM Software in Discrete Manufacturing Industries ?

Product life cycle management (PLM) is a philosophy, process and discipline supported by software for managing the life cycle of products through the stages from concept through recycling/retirement. As a discipline, it has grown from a mechanical design and engineering focus to being applied to many different vertical-industry product development challenges. The market for PLM software includes vendors that: - Provide product data management (PDM) software to capture, cultivate and manage technical product-related content. That content defines the products’ specifications and designs and their allowable product configurations. It includes technical descriptions of the parts, materials and allowable product configurations expressed as 3D models, drawings and other related content. All PLM vendors deliver PDM functionality. - If software providers support only PDM functionality, Gartner does not consider them PLM vendors. PLM vendors support complementary applications that enable the PLM discipline to various degrees. Gartner considers a vendor a PLM provider if it supports at least three complementary software categories that enable the PLM discipline. Table 1 provides insight into the complementary categories of software that support the PLM discipline. Those additional software categories help manufacturers create, deliver, maintain, service and discontinue products.

"Transitioning to the Cloud: An Engaging TeamCenter Experience"

Great experience transitioning from on premise to on the cloud platform. Our previous version of TeamCenter was very customized by our parent company and didn't meet our needs. Moving to the default less customized version on the cloud brough all the key benefits of an ERP system the way it is intended to be.

"Great use for PLM"

Arena PLM has some issues with integrating with other software platforms but within the platform, Arena provides all the required features for providing sourcing, bill of materials and a great list of options to export different view of items. There are some shortcomings like inability to track relationship between two part numbers when a search query is raised which takes more time to resolve and sometimes gets complex.
