Windchill+: PLM with the convenience of SaaS

Windchill+ combines the powerful PLM functionalities of PTC Windchill with the convenience, flexibility and scalability of a modern SaaS solution. This way you can manage all your product data and processes centrally, without the concerns of on-premise systems.

Your trusted PLM tool, with all the benefits of the cloud

Windchill+ is the first comprehensive PLM solution that you can use entirely as a service. You get the same powerful features as in classic Windchill (from workflows to BOM management) but with all the benefits of the cloud: automatic updates, built-in security and rapid adoption of new modules. This lays the foundation for a future-proof and connected digital thread.

Advantages of a SaaS PLM

As a cloud solution, Windchill+ makes product data more widely accessible, simplifies management and accelerates time-to-market and innovation.

  • Built-in security: Detect and eliminate vulnerabilities with advanced security features.
  • Smooth upgrades: Stay always up-to-date thanks to regular updates (every 18 months).
  • Fast deployment: Ready-to-use PLM solution on Microsoft Azure. Quickly deployable without complex configuration.
  • Easier collaboration: Safely share data in real time, even with external parties such as suppliers and customers.

Frequently asked questions about Windchill+

What happens to customizations when I switch to SaaS PLM?

Although PLM is not always a ready-made solution, this does not have to be a disadvantage. Many organisations have unique needs and require a certain degree of customisation in their PLM environment. Even then, a SaaS solution like Windchill+ offers clear benefits: you get a flexible and expandable PLM solution that allows customisation without losing the power of best practices.

How do I migrate from Windchill to Windchill+?

The migration process consists of three steps:

  1. Assess: We map your current Windchill environment, including your customisations and used infrastructure. This gives us a clear picture of what is needed for a smooth migration.
  2. Convert: Wherever possible, we rework your customisations into configurable solutions that also function perfectly in a SaaS environment. We then export, upgrade and validate your Windchill environment.
  3. Operate: You are ready to go live with Windchill+. From then on, you work in a secure, high-performance and future-proof PLM environment in the cloud.
