How To Choose PDM? (another visual guide)

Last week I published my visual guide how to choose PLM. This post was the most popular during the whole week. So, I decide to try another one this week about Product Data Management.

What do you think is the future of PDM? The demand for tight integration with CAD system and need to keep up with CAD system release schedule put PDM very dependent on CAD vendors. Most of non-CAD-related PDM implementation moved to PLM that focuses on wider aspects of data coverage in this organization. See my previous post – PDM vs. PLM: A Data Perspective.

I’d interested to know your view of the future PDM trajectories. Do you see it differently?

Best, Oleg
