Oracle Fusion Cloud PLM

Formerly Oracle Agile PLM

Reduce costs overall.

Increased productivity.

Increased customer satisfaction.

Increase in product movement.

Needs a set of training to familiarize the product dashboard.

Not easy to use at the first time.

Unable to edit the catalog at some time.

Ease of Installation and Deployment, Navigation, and Ease of Use

Requires optimized infrastructure compared to other tools

Can be expanded quickly as per the need

Makes my work more accurate for data management

Application is web based so if the internet is not stable, It may Lag a little

A lot of frequently upgradation patches, Please reduce it to some extent.

Customer care services is pathetic, Customer needs to be improved.

Visual analytics

Data quality checks

Product comparisons

Metadata management

Front-end/UI

Implementation

Aftersales service/customer education

We can constantly change the structure of our project in use depending on our need to show only some areas of the job at the moment, and there are no problems with it.

There is a tool designed for failover, which helps to keep the job without constant losses, leaving us with an infrastructure secure enough to give us confidence in our work.

Agile PLM does not let us keep workloads properly balanced if we want to use more than one virtual network (VCN, specifically), forcing us to work with a single network in which we manage the different levels of the work infrastructure. Although this is a drawback, it has helped us to adapt to more centralized methodologies.

Multiple managed servers for HA

Multiple file manager support

User-friendly web interface

DataGuard support

Needs improvement for DR

Application proactive monitoring and health checkup

User access is easy to change for all users, there is no hassle when someone switches departments or leaves/joins the company.

Custom searches make it easy to find documents or records, global for the whole company and custom personal searches are available.

Objects are easy to connect through relationships tab and BOM, makes it easier to see what is affected when a change is made.

This program was not meant to be used for training, too many errors and not all actions are kept in the audit history trail.

Some search criteria does not work, random results generated.

Program checks out when overloaded, errors occur more frequent than we want.

Filter information

List creation

Easy to understand

Would be nice if we could build our own items

It costly. There are free services that do the same thing. This ensures data privacy

Would be nice to interface with other systems easier

Single solution for all products

Handles diverse mix of products and lives

Easy interface and user management

Better dashboard customization

Better user guide & training

More customization without the need to bring in consultants

Maintain the BOM Structure.

Ease of creating and maintaining BOM.

Single source of truth for all the item creation needs.

Change management and version control.

Revision control and change management could improve.

Reference designators could have more flexibility in maintenance.

BOM structure report could use more customization for various user needs.

It provides a single source of truth for all our products and their attributes.

It integrates well with EBS.

It would be nice to have the ability to create data entry rules.

Searching is not easy especially within BOMs.

Easy to implement and configure.

Look and feel.

Integration capabilities.

Could have more robust, full PLM suite capabilities in the future versions.

The product makes management of items much easier for our employees.

It helps us reduce time to market for new products.

Agile PLM helps us stay ahead of quality issues.

The integration with other products could be a bit simpler...at least when we tackled that issue. We went with a 3rd party's integration tool.

The interface isn't the prettiest, but it functions well.

Troubleshooting issues can at times be complicated.

Product Development (revision management)

Approval Process Workflows and Tracking

Wide array of additional modules ( Compliance, Quality, Project Management ) all within the same dashboard area

The overview page is dated as this UI has been in the works for many years - a very 'engineering dashboard'

Unable to copy, paste, and modify workflows . Need to create from scratch

Ongoing support for Oracle Agile is in question with the movement to Cloud technologies

Hr functions are very good from a manger and organization perspective. Good presentation of employee data and hieracrhy.

Document content delivery is average to below average. Would like it to be simpler for users.

For simple document delivery I would like to strip the screen down to far fewer fields and tabs.

Manages Change control well.

Controls product structure well.

Minimal down time.

User friendly and intuitive.

CAD Management. Particularly around 3D CAD model management.

Provide simpler user specific configurations without the need for PX's.

Products and requirements are growing more complex than ever. Oracle's Agile Product Lifecycle Management helps you innovate profitably, with the broadest and most comprehensive solution to efficiently centralize product data, streamline processes, and launch quality products faster. Agile PLM is a strategic approach to managing the lifestyle of a product throughout its full value chain from initial requirements gathering through to design, prototyping, obtaining certification, product customization, service and retirement. Agile PLM emphasizes process efficiency, cross-functional collaboration in the extended enterprise, rapid innovation, rigorous quality control, risk mitigation, and cost-effectiveness.

The aspects that I like of Oracle Agile Project Management is that it helps foster collaboration between internal team members and vendors. All of our processes are documented on the platform, and the platform helps increase accountability across all internal teams. Collaboration is great in this tool.

Oracle Agile is a good product lifecycle management (PLM) software tool/database. Oracle Agile PLS is overall and for the most part, easy to use and has the ability to be customized and is able to provide visibility into the data that was entered into the database. This tool allows cross-functional teams to work on the same task at the same time, which is great when working remotely and/or working on an all remote team. Overall, this tool helped to accelerate product review, approval, and ultimately launch of new materials, therefore maximizing profitability and enhance product features and design as needed. The database is easy to use and does not require much training for someone who is technically savvy with other similar databases, and/or have used them in the past.

There lots of functionality and features in this product which gives you, as a company, great benefits to be able to manage your products portfolio. Easy to document products and have a way of looking up a product history and quality issues in the past. Better teamwork with pair engineering and co-located teams. Less documentation to restrict creativity, less time spent doing blind research, testing and feedback speeds up learning, and smaller more rapid improvements.

Each time users need to configure it. One time configuration done cannot be moved or copied or applied on other projects. Every time it takes a default template. The interface is not the prettiest, somewhat slow but this is probably a function of the size of the database and the hardware it is running on.

The fact that Oracle knows about some minor issues and has no intention of fixing them. Such as the "open" button works approximately a third of the time, while the "get" button will only work if an entire section is selected and not just the aspect you want to open/get.

It is installation is not very user-friendly. It is tough to understand by new untrained users and the company needs to provide training and sessions before starting on it. Also, it should provide more third-party integration facilities. The forms can be a bit hard to understand for some clients. The tool is could stand to be more like the form an EBS user would encounter. The vertical solution does not always match the need.

Very difficult to customize searches, UI layouts per user, or really anything besides the workflows. We've been trying, unsuccessfully so far, to implement a macro that will read a custom Excel spreadsheet, turn it into the format Agile wants, and automatically then populate the data fields.

Product lifecycle management: the tool is fully configurable and it is easy to use and manage it as per project requirements.

Improves the engineering change processes: any change in the product can go through a more or less elaborate review/approval process

Helps improve the product quality system management: it is a great tool for our product quality department

Helps you be compliant with the ISO standards of your business

It gives you a clear picture of the project's status with nice dashboards

Complex tool that requires training for people to start using it first, then more training to use it at its full capabilities

The UI is not modern; it is not ugly or bad, but it could use some improvements

May grow to be slower as the database size increases with time

The implementation and rollout in the company took a long time due to our specific requirements
