The problem is that management has concerns with situations where legacy data would need to be manipulated. It's a huge disappointment that even though PTC is the owner of both products, they've still made it very difficult and a hard pill to swallow for us to move from one product to another.Īre there any plans for PTC to make moving from one PTC product to another a bit more friendly? Obviously getting new users/companies to switch to Onshape is a strong business, but what about us PTC users that are holding onto a lot of legacy data that just want to move forward into the new/better systems that are coming along?īryan, I've seen this demo video. I knew that this would be the biggest hurdle for upper management to get over, but, after hearing that basically, every CAD file would come in as a DXF and/or STEP file, my manager more or less cut it off there. there are dozens or more reasons why I would love to step away from Windchill.Īfter the demo, we started talking about the data transfer from Windchill/Creo into the Onshape system. Not having to manage installs or making sure everyone has the same settings/configs, etc. The Creo/Windchill system seems so cumbersome when comparing the two and on a global level it just makes sense.
Everyone thinks the Onshape package is great and would be excited to use it.
I've been discussing with upper management the many pros of moving our team to Onshape, I even had an in-house demo done to show management and other engineers some of the cool CAD, data management, and sharing tools. I've had a free account since before PTC acquired Onshape and I've been following the development closely. Managing the Windchill system from a training level and managing the CAD system has become more and more difficult as more users join the team. We are a global team of engineers and other job roles sharing the Windchill space. The company I work for currently uses PTC Creo and Windchill.
