PDM solutions for Solidworks..

[Mechview]

Does anybody know of an alternative to EPDM for Solidworks?

Not sure if it is best and only route to go down but we are getting pushed in that direction.. I was hoping others have had a good experience with similar PDM systems we can draw a comparison from?

Multi CAD and Workflow capabilities a must…

Cheers.

Hi Mechview,

We use a program called DDM from a company called CSI in Newbury.

If you trawl their website you will find this link to a solidworks integration video, I have stuck it here for you
DDM : SolidWorks Assembly Configurations

They are really worth a good look as they provide better functionality than Enterprise PDM but at less cost!

Good luck

little known solution

A friend of mine at another company said they have just bought a system called "design data manager" or "DDM" from a company called CSI.

He is raving so much about it that we are in the process of discussions with them. I have seen a quick online demo and was very impressed myself. They are coming in to do a live demo in August but I have already had an initial quote over the phone and it is really cheap considering it's functionality.

I will let you know my findings but looking very positive at the moment.

Cheers
