Application architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
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.

Plm Team Lead at Johnson Electric Holdings Ltd
Web workspace has modernized development workflows and provides secure 3D collaboration
Siemens PLM TeamCenter has many features and options, but from a cost perspective, the features I need do not always come with the default license cost. Siemens has its own costing model where dedicated modules such as Manufacturing Process Planner, Schedule Manager, Easy Plan, and Line Balancing are available, but these do not come with the default licensing model. Additionally, Siemens introduced AI features such as Copilot in Siemens PLM TeamCenter and predictive searching and predictive commands last year, but these do not come with the default licensing model and require separate licensing. Third-party integration support in Siemens PLM TeamCenter could be made easier. Currently, organizations develop customized logic to integrate third-party tools with Siemens PLM TeamCenter, and if an organization wants to integrate their own tool with Siemens PLM TeamCenter, they need to develop a customized solution. If Siemens could provide a generic integration solution, it would be easier for everyone to adopt and maintain. Additionally, while Siemens has moved to the ReactJS latest web technology for Active Workspace, there is room for improvement in the UI and performance from a user point of view. The UI and other related features can be improved to match the latest web technology platforms. While Siemens has improved over the years, many other web tools and web platforms have more user-friendly UIs and features, so there is still room for improvement.

"Siemens PLM TeamCenter has positively impacted our organization by helping us sort the data, and in terms of work and releases, it makes our tasks very easy."

Cons

"The Oracle Agile PLM disaster recovery solution is complex, and there is a lot of manual work involved when switching to the DR site."
"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 response and usability friendliness of Siemens PLM TeamCenter applications could be improved to be more user-friendly and faster."
"The product's web interface and setup process could be better."
"This solution works, but it has many issues. Smaller companies are coming up the cloud-based PLM solutions that may replace larger PLM companies like PTC or Siemens in the future. It has some performance problems, and the maintenance is too expensive. Recently, we completed a project, and it cost almost $6 million to upgrade."
"The complexity of the data model frustrates me the most regarding how Siemens PLM TeamCenter could be improved."
"One of the improvements I would suggest for Siemens PLM TeamCenter is making the interface easier to use."
"Siemens PLM TeamCenter can be improved in that it is not a beginner-friendly software."
"Siemens PLM TeamCenter has many features and options, but from a cost perspective, the features I need do not always come with the default license cost."
"Siemens PLM TeamCenter is stable for a wide range of applications, but there are some integrations that are unstable, and Siemens is updating them."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing policy isn't good. We had trouble with it. That's why we're looking at a new cloud-based solution."
"It is costly for small businesses."
