Allows us to do product collaboration, PPM, and PQM, but it isn't scalable and can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts
It's not scalable. It can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts. That's one of the biggest limitations. Relationship management should support large data. The workflow engine also needs improvement. It should support complex workflows. There are things with patch management that should be better. There are hundreds of other things that we logged with them but never got implemented. The cloud version isn't very powerful, so it doesn't support parallel workflow. It just supports the serial flow. The stability and technical support could also be improved.
Naresh Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
It's good for highly complex enterprises in aerospace and defense
Setting up TeamCenter is complex. Every PLM is complex unless we're talking about cloud-based solutions, but those have fewer features. However, those are only suitable for small companies. The time needed to deploy depends on the expertise of the person installing it. We can do it in a couple of hours if it is an out-of-the-box installation. If customers deploy it themselves, it may take a few days. It also depends on the complexity of the system we are designing. The amount of employees needed also depends on the size of the company and its complexity. A massive company takes an army to run the solution, but a couple of people can make it work for a small company.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Multiple file manager support helps to resolve key performance issues with file download and upload."
"We use this solution for product collaboration. We also use it for PPM and PQM."
"The product's most valuable features are patch and data management."
"I like the Teamcenter Requirements Manager. It also has a structure manager where you create an engineering bill of materials and manufacturing process planning. There is something like service lifecycle management. That is where the maintenance data is stored. There are multiple modules. ALM Polarion is also a Siemens solution. It is a separate product, but it's part of the Siemens portfolio."
 

Cons

"It's not scalable. It can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts. That's one of the biggest limitations. Relationship management should support large data."
"The Oracle Agile PLM disaster recovery solution is complex, and there is a lot of manual work involved when switching to the DR site."
"This solution works, but it has many issues. Smaller companies are coming up the cloud-based PLM solutions that may replace larger PLM companies like PTC or Siemens in the future. It has some performance problems, and the maintenance is too expensive. Recently, we completed a project, and it cost almost $6 million to upgrade."
"The product's web interface and setup process could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing policy isn't good. We had trouble with it. That's why we're looking at a new cloud-based solution."
"It is costly for small businesses."
