Unavailability of Pro/Engineer still in Engineering Control Center. I am not sure if Solid Works integration to ECTR is available or no. I wish ECTR should have all CAD interfaces developed soon and let the consultants like me know about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

During my internship project, I have used SAP PLM for 3 months through the internship project to streamline the entire product life cycle management where I realized that it is perfect for any application for fulfilling all business needs. It does the job. While deploying my prototype, It has provided the 360-degree-support for all product-related processes - from the first product idea, through manufacturing to product service. I have later also implemented it in SAP S/4 Hana for much better efficiency and to reinvent business models and to drive new revenues and profits. I believe that this tool can fit all types and sizes of manufacturing business. During my research phase, I have also drawn the comparison from SAP PLM tool to other PLM tool in the market. I have never seen such endless possibilities given in any other PLM tool. It gives me a lot of historical data where I could make my Purchase Requisition, Materials and Bill of Material. It supports flexible and new product development processes and streamline the management of project proposals, progress, tasks, timelines. It has really given the concrete way of cost-centered view of the product design and development lifecycle. This makes processes related to the product consistent, efficient, and simpler Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes I felt that it is bit difficult to learn and use in the practical way. There are no documentation, training and modules available through the internet for practical implementation of the tool. There are number of different options available which seems to be irrelevant for the beginners. There are no copy paste to ease the work and process. There are lot of customizations that is required for each organization to accommodate their own processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

. 3d model and drawing
. BOM Preparation.
. Related documents such spec and project manual etc.
. Inventory management.
. Revision up the product if any change like model upgrade or any other.
. In ovel all PLM will maintain product life from start to its end and you can view the data of changes for product anytime. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not much, need trained person to work on it as everybody can't access the PLM without prior knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its very easy to search and open 3d models and its related drawings without any hassle. 3d viewer and object browser helps to find files easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Better user interface will improve the user experience. Also unable to start another instance of SAP, when exited. Needs a restart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
