Product Engineer Building Materials Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 4/20/2017 "Overall a great solution for some, but not without its shortcomings" 3/5 What do you like best about Autodesk Fusion Manage? The high level of customization and 'you can pretty much do anything you want' vibe of the whole application. For instance, the way in which any team's workflows can be directly translated to a block diagram is very powerful, and the scripting engine allows for some pretty deep add-on customization. The robust API makes custom integrations easy for even an untrained programmer like myself. The admin module (workflow editor, item details editor, etc.) is very easy to use and overall a great user experience. This is often overlooked in systems like these. The concept behind workspaces and items and their relationships is easy to explain to just about any user, allowing them to cook up their own workspaces if they request them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Autodesk Fusion Manage? The entire document/attachment system. There's no bulk file imports, and everything is limited to a one-to-one item to file relationship. Large workarounds and scripts must be created to accommodate some very simple document management operations. Support has indicated that this is changing, but I've seen nothing in the last year. The sourcing tab is very limited, and bulk import/export are not easy to accomplish (e.g. BOM scrubbing). While attractive, the classification module is completely useless - the data cannot be exported, reported on, or displayed in BOMs. Generally, although the scripting module powerful, it's clear that it's being used overused (out of the box) to write in features that ought to be easier to administrate (e.g. workflow approvals, custom part numbering) It's also lacking out of the box integration with other Autodesk tools, even ones explicitly named Fusion! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Autodesk Fusion Manage: Your admin must know how to program (JavaScript), or otherwise be willing to learn at a beginner/intermediate level (depending on the complexity of your processes). If that's not possible, you may be spending a lot of time on the phone with the support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Autodesk Fusion Manage solving and how is that benefiting you? BOM management, cross-team coordination, and rapid estimate generation for our entire prefab building system. The ability to write a custom integration with Revit API has allowed us to automatically keep BOMs up to date on a project to project basis, with the simple click of a button.

"Great customizable Workflow" 5/5 What do you like best about Autodesk Fusion Manage? The ability to customize the software to our workflow that we need to fit our company path. The fact that we can create a similar look for completely different workflows is a blessing as well for smother transition from task to task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Autodesk Fusion Manage? If we do not tweak the layout often, sometimes it takes a bit of working with it to get the groove back. Like riding a bike, but a little longer re-learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Autodesk Fusion Manage: Any process that you need to track within your organization that needs to be tracked and used by one or multiple users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Autodesk Fusion Manage solving and how is that benefiting you?

Traceability, for example, our company uses a Purchase Requisition (PR) system to allow the engineering dept. to order equipment & materials. By using this system, anyone can trace an order back to the PR, then to the RFQ and even to the Supplier's quotes who didn't win the contract - all with the click of a button. Previously, this would not be possible as everything was actioned through emails and only available to the project team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Autodesk Fusion Manage? There is currently no way to 'grey out' unneeded fields. With all processes, only certain fields are required to be completed at each stage. It would be beneficial if administrators could select which fields are required at each stage. At present the only options are to either group all the required fields in to a section and enable 'workflow locking' or use validations to warn the user that these fields should / should not be populated. The first option is not always possible as these fields may not be easily grouped as they cover different subjects or are required at different stages of the process. The second option can be frustrating as the warnings only display once you try to push the process on to the next stage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Autodesk Fusion Manage: Thoroughly investigate your processes. Whilst it is easy to change processes in PLM, I feel that if you constantly have to make alterations to the process, users will get frustrated and may not 'buy-in' to the system. Once users are against something, it takes a lot of work to get them back on board. Start with implementing the easy processes. This will give users an introduction to the PLM interface and should hopefully show management some sort of return on their investment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Autodesk Fusion Manage solving and how is that benefiting you? There have been many processes developed by our admin team since we started using PLM 3 years ago. Some of these process are RFQ's, purchase requisition, holiday requests, calibration, non-conformance requests, meeting minutes. Two of the processes are explained in a bit more detail below. Our old document control system utilized a Microsoft access database and was contained on our internal server. This meant that you could only access the the database from within the company premises. Now with the document control system stored in PLM, any company employee with access to the internet can access any document they require, anywhere in the world. Previously, monitoring Supplier performance was pretty non existent. Now we have a process in place which monitors when supplier certifications expire and the number of non-conformance reports, and issues raised against the supplier. This will greatly help with quantifying positive or indeed negative feedback to suppliers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For a new organization setting up life cycle management, the preconfigured workspaces get you going really fast. The app store gives you great ideas on how to use the product and extend it within your organization. The staff on site are happy to help, and can assist with issues you run into. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Autodesk Fusion Manage? It can be difficult to adapt the environments to pre-existing workflows. Scripts are not always user friendly to manage. Once you add a workspace, its difficult to remove it cleanly, as it leaves links and data behind that make maintance painful. The interface can be slow to use though, and page load times are a common complaint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Autodesk Fusion Manage: Try out a demo version, experiment, and then wipe it clean before proceeding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MN My N. Vice President, Quality Nanotechnology Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 4/20/2017 "Modern UI Version Needs Work" 3/5 What do you like best about Autodesk Fusion Manage? The support from the AD team. FLC has a great potential to drive a majority of company business processes as the de-facto business process engine, but the application really needs to be stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Autodesk Fusion Manage? The modern UI version is buggy and unstable. The incorporation of cPDM with FLC is extremely flawed in security and relationships. The interfaces between cPDM, Autodesk Drive, and FLC are not consistent. The document viewer has multiple bugs and the UX can be cleaned up. The UI/UX while better than the classic can be much more intuitive. Why does it take so many clicks??? The mobile app does not allow you to view attachments so it is almost worthless. System speed is also an issue. Using the system in China and Europe can be challenging. Browser compatibility is limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Autodesk Fusion Manage: Wait until the kinks are worked out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Autodesk Fusion Manage solving and how is that benefiting you? Using this system as a single source of truth for the company. We have deployed document management, CAPA, MRB, Training, and certifications and are looking to deploy BOM and NPI. Benefits have been minor due to the amount of bugs in the system.

Once you get used to it, it is fairly easy to navigate. It allows the company to have all product information in one location instead of scattered through our shared drive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Autodesk Fusion Manage? When the sales pitch is that you can do everything yourself - you don't need to be in IT or need IT's help. Its not true. We needed help, lots of it, which ends up costing a lot of money. Might have well have invested the money up front to have it set up the way you wanted. However, that is not what was presented to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Autodesk Fusion Manage solving and how is that benefiting you? The main benefit we have found is being able to look up current product specifications and being able to look through the history of the item. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
