Create, collaborate and control

In-Depth

Dave Wilson spoke to Tom Shoemaker, Director, Windchill Solutions Marketing about Windchill 8.0, the latest release of the company’s data management and collaboration software.

For years, PTC has embraced the idea that engineers need to create products, collaborate with one another and control the flow of information around their company.

And over that time, the company has built a range of products that work together to form a complete Product Development System (PDS) to meet those needs. Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire, for example, enables designers to create products, Windchill ProjectLink allows them to collaborate with one another, while PDM Link allows them to have control over the data they’ve created.

Having been successful at embracing the three C’s for many years, the company certainly hasn’t eschewed the idea in the latest release of its Windchill product release 8.0.

On the contrary, they’ve just made it faster.

“Searching for documents over a LAN is 83% faster, creating/checking-in documents is 67% faster, and rendering product structures is 94% faster,” said Tom Shoemaker, Director, Windchill Solutions Marketing at PTC.
