Siemens announces the latest version of the Teamcenter portfolio, the world’s most widely used product lifecycle management (PLM) software. Teamcenter helps reduce the overall cost to manage and maintain PLM through cloud-based deployment options, while providing more convenient web browser access, on any smart device, along with tools to more easily manage and maintain the software itself.

“With the latest version of Teamcenter, we’re delivering a modern, adaptable PLM system that is proven to change and grow with our customers as they face the challenges of industry and market disruption,” said Joe Bohman, senior vice president, Lifecycle Collaboration Software for Siemens PLM Software. “We’re focused on making Teamcenter more cost-effective to deploy and own, while extending access to more users with web-based solutions spanning across the product lifecycle. With this release, our customers will enjoy significantly faster performance across multiple sites – for example, up to 10 times faster data transfers, 5-10 times faster data synchronization, and increased throughout up to 2 million objects per hour.”

Teamcenter helps customers realize innovation through greater IT efficiency with modern, adaptable PLM deployment options. Deployment Center, a web-based installer, helps customers more easily manage Teamcenter spanning an unlimited number of environments. The new release offers full platform support, making it easier to set up a Teamcenter environment.

“America Makes Digital Storefront is a secure online platform for additive manufacturing delivered with Teamcenter on the cloud using Amazon Web Services,” said Joe Veranese, business systems manager for America Makes. “More than 215 member organizations access the Digital Storefront through Active Workspace, the easy-to-use web client for Teamcenter. It has been easy to configure and extend Active Workspace to make the information not just available, but consumable, so we can provide information to the membership quickly and without the roadblocks of other tools.”

Teamcenter gives customers more options to manage the cost of PLM ownership by partnering with a diverse cloud partner base, including Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services, and leveraging the cloud expertise of Siemens’ global managed services organization and channel partners.
