entralink 9.1 o pdmlink 9.1

[sernic]

Hello, everyone.
I had a question. currently working in a company with intralink 3,4 and wf2 and we are thinking of migrating to wf4/5 and new management.

at this point the dilemma is whether to stay with intralink (9.1) or switch to pdmlink.
in the company we already have sw that cover other management areas and therefore we serve exclusively for document management cad.

the ptc obviously pushes for pdmlink but forces us to have no more floating licenses and more.... my question is also: are they different in management?
how heaviness, rigidity controls etc how is comparison?


I hope to have been clear but ready to answer all your requests for clarifications

Thank you.

I put the same question to our authorized ptc retailer, the answer was that for a few positions as in our case, intralink remained the optimal solution, windchill or other management are suitable for more complex structures.

Honestly, I would like to understand more, too, and it remains to be understood if it is possible to migrate from intralink 3.4 without risks.

Hi.

if you make the pass I think you agree to go on a solution that is compatible with wf5

I was told that currently version 9.1 m020 (only compatible with wf5) has problems (stability??? ) and the passage from intra3.4 would require in my case 8gb of minimum data 8 days to 700 euro/gg always that there are no problems in the database
then I would add a few euros on a mini course on the management of the new intralink and therefore the total cost of the operation you can imagine

I don't know how to tell you, since it should be all planned by ptc, there should be no problem unless I said problems on the starting database.

In any case, I repeat that for small businesses like mine, the passage will not only be done but I will also remove the assistance as I will not be able to update the cad at the end of the evolution of wf4 :frown:

I hope however that in the meantime ptc will rethink and release a patch to make intra 3.4 compatible with wf5
(hope for nothing):tongue:

Let me know what you think, bye

we are still at 3.4 and wf3 more or less for the same reasons.
our ptc dealer has always tried to take time because I think they didn't have much experience in data migration, so we decided to stay like this for now. but as soon as I would like to pass to wf5 (now the wf4 I think I jump it), so a solution must be found.

Hi.

I'd like to go to wf5, too.
but in these moments ask to invest more money after those necessary to stay in maintenance on a new pdm ( + important ) even if the old one performs well the functions we need, without a reason that is not to follow the updates of the cad, it is very difficult to make understand to the owner


Hi.

 

[tecnico_plast]

the problem arises from the fact that 3.4 will no longer support the new versions of pro/e.

If you pay a reasonable price to maintenance customers to upgrade the pdm, the thing you could also do, but if they shoot absurd prices I see it hard.. .

I have received a quote from my dealer, which I have presented before you, much depends on the starting database, dimensions and above all problems that can be presented, for the rest, the licenses we would have them and therefore the cost depends only on the work of technicians in migrating databases.
I do not assume the burden of personally installing the pdm (I will be able to do it! ) or of making migrations that I consider the sorrowing point, I already have enough great and if there were some hindrance I would be forced in any case to entrust myself to technicians and therefore I would be successful

by ptc therefore the only possibility is that many do not renew the maintenance precisely for this reason and that therefore evaluate the possibility to make the patch to recover the turnover (I hope that the dealers press in this sense because they will also lose their share of euro )

Hi.

Hi.

 

[mamobono]

I forgot:
my dealer also discouraged me to install intralink 9.1 m020 because he told me that there will be no controls present in intralink 3.4 of common use and that I should switch to whincill for having them

I sell it to you as they sold it to me, even you know it if it's true

Hi.

 

[tecnico_plast]

I also did not recommend going to the 9th for some strange reason that I still did not understand, and they also told me that windchill is more indicated for the big ut.

Honestly, I think they haven't had much experience with data migration and try to take time, but that was more than 6 months ago.

I have already installed once pro/i with migration attached data, I have had some problem that I solved within 2-3 days with the help of the support, but I assure you that it is a delicate operation, and I believe that I would not do it again, also because I do not want to take this responsibility I am gaining you as much as the other workers who have no other thought in the head and work with the ipod and the earphones with the music of under. . .

ps: Our database weighs about 8 gb, so I don't think it's a walk to migrate.

...forgive me the intrusion. . .
but the dear old intralink 3.x don't give it anymore or do they? so for us that we are a small office of 15 people we have no choice, that is they would give us obligatory intralink 9... :

It should be like that.

we in the office stayed in three...

 

[uguccione500]

I... only in three? But how many were you before? we have passed from 80 to less taaaaaanti, you want for the work "stagnant", you want to have less expenses at times when the work does not abound.. .

before we were 5, we are a small technical office inside the company, we do not account third.

 

[uguccione500]

more or less like us, pity that we now "know" you also to the third account if otherwise the boss had to reduce further and didn't go right down...
and then maybe you start earning like old times!

 

[tecnico_plast]

and then maybe you start earning like old times!

possibly, what you earn is just the boss... :biggrin:

 

[uguccione500]

...and if he doesn't earn, he knows that we too... :tongue:

 

[tecnico_plast]

...and if he doesn't earn, he knows that we too... :tongue:

When things go wrong, you make the pitiful speeches, you cry, you fire people, you ask for sacrifices and maybe you do not pay the overtime, and so on.

when things go well, all quiet, indeed not, you keep high the threshold of attention doing some lament to the right and to the left, and even if the company earns well, indeed well, nobody comes to say "boys, this month we made good money, here is a more tot..."
:tongue:

 

[uguccione500]

Well, it never happened here, and I think it'll never happen so often!
However, wanting to keep the business open and trying to keep your work alive and your employees until the last I think it is an appreciable gesture.
here the relationship with the "main" is very fond and good or bad we speak clear in the face: when there is it is said and when it is lean it is lean for all.. .

Yes, of course, I've been here for years.

Only when there is no one for all.

but the most serious thing is to keep everyone more or less at the same level, starting from who fucks on the ground (with all respect) to those who do the projects and bangs his head all day.

However, I think it is a law of nature, there are opposing interests and it could not be otherwise, but relationships have always been very friendly. . .

but let's forget, that's not the subject of the post.

 

[uguccione500]

I understand, trust me. I don't know, elsewhere I had worked in your own condition, it seems different here and I hope it's not just illusion... :
However I agree with you, we are fully ot: thank you for now for the information you gave me!
soon in another topic! :
