What is xPLM?

1-32Y-181 Jun 14, 2010 1:34 PM

Does anyone have experience with xPLM? I am a little confused about this software; is it a standalone PDM solution that integrates with solidworks and SAP or is it an extension to solidworks EPDM that provides the link between SAP and EPDM? Does xplm require EPDM?

Originally I thought xPLM was a complete standalone PDM solution that would compete with EPDM, in other words you would either purchase xPLM or EPDM but not both, but the more I research it appears that xPLM only provides the integration between SAP and EPDM.

Can anyone clarify this for me?

Thanks,

Sam

I first heard of xPLM from this article: http://www.deskeng.com/articles/aaattm.htm

xPLM appears to be a software integration company, not a particular software. They seem to have integration software or implementation services for various CAD to PDM (Aras Innovator, etc.) and from Aras to ERP software. Here is their website... http://www.xplm.com/.
