I've used Arena PLM in a previous establishment and absolutely loved it! The system was easy to use, navigate, configure, and it worked well to record training. I was at a startup so I'm not sure how this system would do in a medium or larger sized corporation, but it was …

Oracle Agile is great for companies that need a way to manage their products and work with various resources in their department from developers, to PMs and UX designers. This is a great way to keep track of feature requests and shippable versions of the product. Implementation and user friendlessness is an issue with this tool so companies that have the budget for consulting or for additional resources to help implement and maintain will need those resources as it is necessary. Training resources should also be factored in by any institution wishing to implement this.
