Is PTC maintaining a Windchill instance for FIRST Robotics teams in the 2019 season?

If so, where is the registration page?

 

Thanks,

Josh

Hello,

 

The server is still available, but I don't know the registration process. I can manually set a project for you.

In order to do so, please send me a private message with your team number and the project manager for Windchill.

 

Thanks,
Alex

    Thank you for the feedback Alex.

    It does not sound like Windchill for FIRST teams is officially supported. I would hate to have my team's data stored on a server with no defined support. Is there still a team supporting the FIRST Windchill server? Any support mechanisms in place for problems?

     

    Thank you,

     

    Josh

    Hi Josh,

     

    As the Windchill server is set and administrated by PTC, there is no issue and I was never informed that is is no longer supported. I'll ask the team that is supporting all FIRST requests for more information. 

    As we are in progress of lots of changes on our academic page, some links may have been lost (the link to register for Windchill server is now targeting Vuforia SDK), but we will get it back:

    Thanks,
    Alex
