Future Tech Systems Envision VIP vs PTC Windchill comparison

Envision VIP is an agile, highly configurable enterprise modeling and knowledge integration environment. Easily customizable stakeholder views support secure collaborative access and analysis of all vital enterprise information. Strategic plans, business capabilities, services, processes, rules, risks, and literally any other desired enterprise resources, tangible or intangible, are securely managed as "Intuitive Business Objects". The key to Envision VIP´s power is its uniquely flexible business-object-oriented (BOO) repository combined with its intuitive user interface. Users can easily create standard or uniquely customized models, classes, and attributes. Dynamic links between these business objects – in the form of user-friendly graphical views, documents, text, pictures, sound, and video – are all easily supported. Additionally, users can apply filters and rules to manage and analyze these objects using various techniques. These tecniqies include spreadsheet-like Matrix Analysis, powerful report writing tools, and custom SQL query capabilities. Users can export models and other information maintained in Envision’s repository to other productivity applications, presentation packages, spreadsheets, and databases.

Manufacturers have never needed real-time information sharing, dynamic data visualization, and the ability to collaborate more than they do today. With easy, secure data access for multi-disciplinary and geographically-distributed teams, quality-focused processes, and a data driven approach to manufacturing, Windchill is elevating how product development gets done.

Windchill’s open architecture enables easy integration with other enterprise systems, including IoT, providing a solid foundation for a product-driven digital thread. PTC's PLM application provides comprehensive out-of-the-box functionality and highly configurable role and task-based apps. Expand self-service access of traceable product data to non-experts who don’t typically use PLM, while avoiding over-customization and complexity.
