Register for Our Upcoming Cloud Tech Tips Webcast  The Path to PLM in the PTC Cloud: Migration Made Easy on Feb. 18th As you begin your journey to PLM in the cloud, there are key tenants which must be leveraged in order to ensure a positive, long-term experience: people, processes, and technology.

Which features do I use? What about upgrades and updates? What kind of control do I need? How will I manage my PLM solution and what are the impacts? Join Lisa Hayes, PTC Cloud Portfolio Lead and Vipul Gohil, Principal Quality Engineer on Feb. 18 th  at 10 AM EST as they take the guesswork out by highlighting these important deployment criteria – security, availability, functionality, performance, and support.    Register HERE and identify the best path forward to a successful transition so you can get back to your IT business initiatives.
