Agile and Pro/E with Family Tables.

[brianlynn]

Hey everyone,
I have heard some rumors that Agile Engineering Data Management
isn't doing what was expected by the customers who bought it. Does anyone
have experience with Agile EDM and can tell me how well or poorly it
interacted with family tables? What kind of things were you required to
do to maintain accurate data & relationships, and if you are still working
with Agile EDM or if you are attempting to use something else, and what
that is.

Thanks for any input you can put in to the pot, and yes I will post a
summary next week,

Obviously no one is using Agile EDM package who has Family Tables in use.

Is anyone besides me using Agile at all?

Well it doesn't look as though anyone has had first hand experience since
Oracle has bought Agile with family tables and the Agile EDM package,
which used to be Eigner's.

For those who are interested, we have been using Agile since 2000, and we
have also been using SofTech's Product Center since 1997, but since PTC
dropped SofTech from their partner program, we decided to see if we could
place our CAD vault in to our workflow system. (BTW, SofTech's
ProductCenter started out as Workflow Technologies' CMS) So far it is
looking bleak, but the sales guy is suppose to get us in contact with a
happy customer that is using Pro/E, and Agile with the EDM package. We
just wanted to find out as much information as possible, because we have
heard rumors of other companies turning off the EDM package after having
bought it.

Thanks to those who responded,
