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.

Teamcenter is perfect for working in large-scale projects related to manufacturing and engineering where collaboration and management of data are crucial. It is evident where the complexity of the products is high such as in automobile and aerospace industries. Some of its features may seem too elaborate for the small business with a less complex process and therefore too expensive. It is less useful in organizations that do not have complex PLM needs or have less IT capacity to implement the system.

  • Teamcenter is a great PLM tool that allows collaboration between our teams, it’s possible to create a variety of teams that can all collaborate in one environment and share relevant information, I like that all the data can be integrated into the application so that it’s more organized and structured.
  • When working with Teamcenter, the roles can be properly distributed so it’s easy to see all the workflows and things that need to be done.
  • The interface is very nice and you can work through it if you don’t know some features. I like how well-integrated everything is and how easy it is to use and implement into your daily work routine.
  • One of my favorite aspects of Teamcenter is its reporting tools, they are definitely some of the best tools I have tried, allowing me to integrate data from different places into the platform and analyze it in different ways. Analyzing a variety of key metrics is possible and helps us have better results in our sales.

Cons
Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
  • 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.

  • Projects tab, easier way to manage smart folders.
  • Where use/referenced reports -> build in to show in excel, not im impact analysis only.
  • Build-in change management - it would be good to have one template to be used in the automotive industry.
  • Cheaper manufacturing licenses.

Because of our current customer needs, we will most likely maintain use of Siemens PLM products for some time. Aside from the initial software cost, we pay for yearly maintenance. Maintaining our yearly maintenance licensing with Siemens, we receive access to all of the latest software releases, as well as premier technical support

As previously mentioned, due to the intense amount of features and modules present in the software, the usability of the software suffers greatly. Many of the features are not used in our context, and many of the modules are not purchased, but the options are still present on the interface leading to a lot of clutter, much of which is never used. The interfaces suffer from a lack of design and tend to feel like a conglomerate of Windows 98 elements.

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.

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.

Earlier, some of the companies acquired by my organization were using PTC Windchill, but the overall stability, user experience and depth of functionality which are provided by Teamcenter doesn't match with any other PLM software and thus, all the acquired companies which were earlier using PTC Windchill has now slowly started into moving towards Teamcenter.

Teamcenter is easily on the best scalable solution. The single source of product information allows us to collaborate more effectively on the product lifecycle. Also, being a cloud solution, it is pretty straightforward to scale as the maintenance required is quite low . In addition, the overall cost is also easily manageable for businesses like ours.

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

  • Definitely, it has a very positive impact so to speak. What we are trying to do through our program, we are utilizing the full capacity of Teamcenter to produce one structure in an effective way. So before we implement this activity, the user has to prepare 10 to 15 structures to reach to our best possible data that can be set across the systems. But now with the complete capability of Teamcenter, we are able to do all these things into one structure itself and then let the system do all the automation or the things that users do not have to concentrate on. All of the automations are done behind the systems and then it is improving not only the efficiency of the end user, but also making a standardized way in order to proceed and transfer the data holistically towards other systems like SAP.
