What's the news with the 10.0 release?
Windchill 10.0 is the most significant Windchill release in PTC’s history with powerful new capabilities for configuring, validating and controlling product structures and service information. Plus, a new user experience and improved system administration make Windchill easier than ever to use and maintain, allowing broader adoption and greater value realization.
"Customers are constantly telling us about the escalating complexity of product development driven by manufacturers' focus on increased product differentiation, an explosion in the volume of regulatory constraints, continual quality pressures, the realization of service operations as a significant profit center, and heightened sensitivity to the environmental impact of product operations," said Brian Shepherd, executive vice president, product development, PTC.
With new capabilities that focus on product analytics and quality management, Windchill 10.0 allows customers to more effectively define, manage, and validate complete bills of material (BOMs), providing linkages across domain-specific views of product structures throughout the entire lifecycle. Windchill 10.0 also includes a new user experience and improved system administration, making it easier than ever to use and maintain and enabling broad adoption.
