Digital.ai TeamForge vs. SAP Integrated Product Development

CollabNet TeamForge is more well-suited for technically knowledgeable users such as developers, systems analysts, QA but not for non-technical users due to the technical data used throughout the tool. CollabNet TeamForge is appropriate for most applications development. In any industry especially suited for high demand software delivery environments.

SAP PLM is well suited for any industry that needs to track the creation of a product from the raw material stage all the way to the shipped product. I do not think it would be well suited for very small companies which do not have any materials, products, and inventory to track.

• Code security.
• Code migration.
• Agile tie-in.

• Provides lower-cost calculation
• This makes processes related to the product consistent, efficient, and simpler.
• It manages product development, support, and recycling projects effectively.
• It allows us to control the whole process.
• It allows us to see the future status of the products.

Incentivized

• I would like to see personalization for managing artifacts, that is, allowing the user to customize pages and save personalized settings and then save them as bookmarks.
• I would like an improved subversion browser such as a graphical user interface rather than a basic file explorer.
• I would like built in features for CollabNet TeamForge integrated with subversion so that i can associate my private code branches and code changes.

Incentivized

• In my opinion, the SAP Integrated Product Development Interfaces have room for improvement
• I think there is SAP Integrated Product Development room for improvement with low code developments

SAP Integrated Product Development is easy to use and we decide the context ourself

They always answer the phone when we put a call in, any time. They have consistently sent out contractors when needed and were there every step of the way when we switched over from ClearCase to TeamForge years ago. The support is what you really pay for when you buy into TeamForge.

Once implemented, it provides seamless integration between PLM and ERP systems.

CollabNet TeamForge is superior to Mercury mainly because it has a subversion change management tool integrated with the product. CollabNet TeamForge offers more complexity but with more flexibility for managing and tracking projects. I think
CollabNet TeamForge is more comprehensive than either Mercury and JIRA. They're all user friendly tools with short learning curves but CollabNet TeamForge is most efficient in my experience.
JIRA was recently adopted for particular applications and is currently being evaluated by various technology teams.

SAP PLM encompasses SAP BW and SAP PRD. We tend to focus more on the SAP PRD portion as it directly involves more closely to production. We selected SAP PLM because it gives us a great visibility in the life cycle of materials, products and overall costs. SAP PLM compliments the other packages very well

• Unfortunately, I do not have access to ROI information.

• Accurately able to order raw materials which are necessary for the current production run, thus reducing overhead.
• The negative impact would be the initial cost of the software and how long it would take to ROI that cost.
• It has allowed us to control batches of product creation much more closer and have the ability to cut some erroneous costs which were found in large batches.
