PDXpert: Simple PLM software for growing companies
You may have heard that PLM software can be expensive to purchase and complicated to
set up. Unfortunately, this is often true of many PLM systems.
We share your impatience with confusing sales presentations, annoying
contract negotiations, complicated installation, expensive configuration
services, and full-time IT support. So, PDXpert PLM software skips all of that.
PDXpert PLM software has been designed by engineering, manufacturing, and software
professionals with one goal: deliver a simple, comprehensive PLM solution.
PDXpert PLM software: simple to evaluate
Most PLM vendors know their software is pretty complicated, so their salespeople
may ask you to rely on web demos and "sample" data that might not reflect
your needs.
Our approach is different: we think that it's better for you to fully explore PDXpert PLM
software using your own data and processes, at your own pace and without a sales
engineer looking over your shoulder.
The PDXpert PLM system that you evaluate is not just limited-function
demo software, but our actual product. It contains the complete application features,
including all forms and reports.
Install it yourself. Set up your single- or multi-user
system configuration. Experiment with various settings.
Then create and manage parts, documents and change forms for up to 3 weeks. If you
want to test alternative configurations, just click a button to reinstall the preconfigured "starter" database.
We even offer an evaluation guide to walk you through some principal
functions (parts creation, drag-and-drop bill of material creation, and
engineering change) in under 15 minutes.
You'll be productive even during the evaluation period. All of the settings and
data entered during your evaluation will be immediately available when you purchase your license
key.
And, if you need more evaluation time, just
let us know.
PDXpert PLM software: simple to purchase
Some PLM salespeople are tough negotiators. The more you pay, the better their commission.
Prices, payment terms, future discounts, license alternatives, extra services,
even press releases: whatever
it is, they'll want to talk it to death.
We know that you have better things to do than negotiating a complex PLM purchase.
We make it easy to determine the license pricing and discounts right on our website.
You can buy a
perpetual license with optional annual maintenance, or buy a
month-to-month subscription if that suits your budget better.
You can get started immediately because we don't even require a credit
application for purchases: we can simply provide a temporary license to
use until we receive your payment.
PDXpert PLM software: simple to install and configure
Installation is a snap: install the application server software, which
includes a free database server and loads our starter template of PLM best practices.
Then, just add the client application
to each user's PC.
You'll find that system configuration is flexible, yet straight-forward. You won't
need to install and learn a separate administrator application; all of the areas that you'll
want to customize are laid out and immediately available for your review.
PDXpert PLM software: simple to learn
PDXpert PLM software's comprehensive help is just an F1
key press away. Users can view our
on-line training videos to obtain a good introduction to basic PLM concepts as well
as PDXpert software functions.
We can help tailor our application to your process, and even come to your
site for a reasonable per-day (never per-user) fee.
PDXpert PLM software: simple to use
Our
goal: make PDXpert PLM software so easy to use that it could be downloaded and installed
without the extensive technical preparations and support that other PLM software
requires. Before a line of code was written, PDXpert PLM
software went through extensive
usability analysis and design.
The resulting product takes full advantage of on-going improvements in user interface
design:
-
Convenient dockable search and navigation panes
-
Google-like free-form text searches
-
Intelligent drag-and-drop item and bill of materials construction
-
Time-saving file attachment drag-and-drop from Windows Explorer
-
Context-sensitive reports for parts, documents, change forms and collections
PDXpert PLM software: simple to manage
Some PLM systems can be challenging to manage (and may even require full-time
IT staff), but PDXpert PLM software exposes all administrator options and settings
in a consistent, easy-to-understand interface. Flexible identifier and revision
assignments, unlimited change types, useful default rules, and flexible workflow
all help you stay on top of your organization's specific needs.
Even software updates have been simplified: whenever you update the
PDXpert application server, each user's client software will be updated
the next time the client is started. PDXpert PLM
software offers all the benefits of a rich client/server user interface,
while providing the ease of client administration typically associated
with simpler browser-based software — and without the complexity of
managing a web server.
