PLM to MRP

PLM to MRP

PLM to MRP

(OP)
Hello,
I have a few questions for all PTC PLM users.
What kind MRP does your company use with the PTC PLM solution?
How well is Windchill integrated with your company MRP? Does your company use off-the-shelf software module for integration? Do engineers in your company have any interaction with your company's MRP?
We are currently facing a very difficult task trying to find readily available software that would automate our internal ECN process and bring together Whindcill PLM on demand with our EPICOR MRP software.
After a few phone calls to a number of third party solution providers, hours spent researching on line we are no closer to finding the solution than we were a week ago.
Apparently there was a time when Pro/ intralink was supported by Arena solutions. That allowed a smooth data transfer from PDM to certain MPRs.  This option is no longer available since Pro/Intralink has been replaced by unsupported Windchill.
On a personal note, I would like to add that I had a chance to use both Pro/intralink 3.0 and Windchill PLM on demand. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the online version of the PLM is not even half as good as PDM software used to be.
I am hoping there is someone out there who had a chance to work with the server based Windchill and would point me in the right direction or just share his/her experience working with these products.
Thank you.
