Allows us to do product collaboration, PPM, and PQM, but it isn't scalable and can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts
It's not scalable. It can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts. That's one of the biggest limitations. Relationship management should support large data. The workflow engine also needs improvement. It should support complex workflows. There are things with patch management that should be better. There are hundreds of other things that we logged with them but never got implemented. The cloud version isn't very powerful, so it doesn't support parallel workflow. It just supports the serial flow. The stability and technical support could also be improved.

Effective lifecycle management improves with strong version control and deep integration needs
There is room for improvement in implementing features fully. The user interface is inconsistent and outdated. It appears that different departments or locations have implemented features differently, leading to inconsistency. There is a significant need for improved integration, particularly using OSLC for connecting with other tools like SAP ERP or ALM tools. The version control, while consistent, lacks flexibility regarding changes in CAD data and requires manual intervention for BOM management analysis.
