Great tool for larger manufacturing companies to use for their drawings, business instructions and procedures
We house all of our procedures, work instructions, and drawings in Windchill. This system allows us to revise and version and to ensure employees have access to the current and all previous versions. We assign the business instruction documents via our Cornerstone LMS and link to the document in PTC Windchill.
- Version history. Able to easily see current and previous revs and the history of each.
- User interface. Easy to use.
- Change notices.
- Check in/out documents.
- Search could be improved. Clears out each after each search instance.
- Search logic could be improved. Have to navigate through lots of records and not in order of rev.

The best software for CAD data management.
I am using PTC Windchill in my current organization to manage all the Cad data, drawings, and parts for ERP DOCUMENT as well. About the overall experience, I am totally satisfied with the WINDCHILL. Before using this software I managed drawings and data in physical order. Now I can manage data in soft format as well. This is a safe and secure platform for the data.
- Its creo view feature is the best one. Even if you don't have Cad design software license. You can view the data in Windchill.
- User interface is so easy you just need to put number of the product for search. If you are a new user you can use this easily.
- Price us quite affordable with this much features.
- During viewing partlist option it is not easy to convert that in Excel.
- You can separately makes drawing and WT Part . Which shouldn't be there.
- While creating of Bill of material there is no option to add multiple parts at the same time to add below a structure.

Wonderful software for lifecycle management
Windchill is the the software that we use for product lifecycle management. I am using this software for BOM Creation, Check in and check out of data and cloud storage for all design related documents. This software is being used by other departments to finalize make or buy and cost management also. It helps us to do ECR and ECN very smoothly.
- VIEW PARTLIST.
- ECN and ECR.
- Design data storage and smooth access.
- Workspace management.
- Assy structure making.
- Extract partlist should be directly in Excel because everyone time we have to convert it to Excel.
- ECN report formatting need improvement.
- Many times part no doesn't go to ERP even after ERP released state.
