What do you dislike about ENOVIA?

Integratation with SAP is absolutely painful and the connection to SAP dll is still using old technology and not updated with latest technology. Frequently times out while transfer huge data for large Bill of Material.

Integration with other applications is painful as there is no standard product available in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Open Architecture"

4/5

What do you like best about ENOVIA?

The global product development feature is really good in ENOVIA. With their aim of targeting Zero prototypes and zero BOM errors, I like the fact that they have considered global launches and ROI as their USP from other software. Importing and Exporting files is pretty easy in this software. Their PLM is also one of the best I've seen and worked with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ENOVIA?

I dont really have anything bad to say about the software, except that sometimes my system does freeze when using the PLM. it could be more with our systems than with the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ENOVIA?

- All of the modules are not integrated appropriately

- It could be a one solution for customer, instead now its being pieces which requires customer to integrate

- too many ways to do same thing in the application, makes it hard to train users and get used to it.

- Review and approval process required to be revisited, as there are too many ways of doing things.

- Platform dependent and ended-up into performance issues when data set gets higer

- Quality testing needs to be improved with more user database. Everything works as OOTB before migrating data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Evolving ENOVIA SmarTeam implementation"

4.5/5

What do you like best about ENOVIA?

SmarTeam in and of itself far exceeds our previous homegrown attempt at PDM and our paper filled processes. We used to use Microsoft Access to track our engineering change orders and drawings / revisions for all of our engineering data. Using Solid Edge's revision manager to keep track of parts and assemblies and drawings resulted in having more than 40,000 duplicate files in various corners of our servers. The change order process was paper filled and we would lose on average 2-4 ECO's per month. Having moved to SmarTeam for our data management and electronic workflows we have drastically reduced the paper generated, we have never lost an ECO, I have been able to create automated metrics with very accurate times for each node of the process, and there is never a doubt that a file we are using is the correct revision. The single point of contact for data, workflows, and sign off is incredible and is now (nearing the 3 year mark) getting others to jump on the PDM bandwagon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ENOVIA?

There can be significant issues if SmarTeam and the viewer and CATIA (we recently switched from Solid Edge to CATIA v5) are not all the same revision level. We are using SmarTeam 2011 right now and the viewer is from 2013 and CATIA is 2013. They work fine for the most part but they do occasionally clash. The viewer in particular causes a lot of grief - crashes often and is very slow. We are pushing to upgrade everything to the latest revision 2015 which should reduce the errors and issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ENOVIA:

Rely on the knowledge and expertise of Dassault VARS - Inceptra has been key to our success. Whether it has been answering panicked phone calls or asking questions before implementation that we never would have thought to ask - their knowledge, experience and support have played an enormous part of our success. Internally, you must include users from across the business that you expect to use it. Setting up the system to work for you or the design group does not help anyone else and only goes to making those users more likely to rebel and resist the implementation. Regularly soliciting feedback from "super users" and relying on those department super users to help train and problem solver is also very critical - share the load with a group. It helps to encourage buy in and it helps to get a better functioning product early on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ENOVIA solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reducing paper filled processes, electronic revision control and management, centralization of data repository, coordination and linking of data from multiple departments through the business, and more reliable sharing and linking of data between two business units separated by 15-20 miles using multi site installation.
