Increased Efficiency Targeted system customizations significantly improved the handling of existing master data. According to project calculations, the investment is expected to pay off within just one year 1. 2. Streamlined Processes The item creation process was simplified through automated handovers between PADS and Bluestar, along with clear status indicators. This reduced manual errors and saved valuable time in manufacturing 2. 3. Stable System Integration Bluestar was integrated into D365 without major issues. The solution has proven to be stable, reliable, and well-received by the business units 3. 4. Structured Project Execution The project was characterized by clearly defined responsibilities, regular coordination, and transparent planning. This structure was a key factor in the smooth rollout 3. 5. User-Friendly Testing Environment A dedicated UAT environment allowed departments to familiarize themselves with the new version early on. This supported user acceptance and simplified training efforts 4. 6. Cooperative Collaboration Communication with external partners such as Avanade and PDM Technology was solution-oriented and efficient. Updates were tested and deployed in a coordinated manner, contributing to steady progress in the design area 5. Bluestar PLM has proven to be a powerful and future-ready solution that has sustainably improved our processes and laid the foundation for modern, integrated product data management.

Director of IT Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 6/12/2025 "Seamless Integration with D365 F&O and Excellent Implementation Support from BlueStar PLM" 5/5 What do you like best about Bluestar PLM? We had a great experience implementing BlueStar PLM, and the delivery team truly stood out for their deep expertise, professionalism, and collaborative approach throughout the project. From initial planning to go-live to post go-live optimization, their team demonstrated strong knowledge of both engineering and ERP processes, helping us streamline product data management within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (D365 F&O). BlueStar PLM's out-of-the-box integration between 3DS Solidworks CAD systems and D365 F&O ERP has improved the engineering change management process (ECOs), BOM synchronization between engineering and operations, and item creation processes. The solution's ability to centralize product data in real time within the ERP has enhanced our traceability and reduced manual errors. Features like embedded engineering workflows, CAD-to-ERP item creation, and product lifecycle visibility have made a noticeable impact on efficiency and compliance. We highly recommend BlueStar PLM for any organization looking to unify engineering and manufacturing under the D365 ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Bluestar PLM? While the overall implementation was successful, the user interface within the PLM workspace could be more intuitive for non-technical users and required some tailoring. Some of our team members, especially those outside engineering, faced a learning curve when navigating certain advanced features. Enhanced UI/UX design and more role-specific dashboards would further improve user adoption and day-to-day usability across departments. More out of box reports about items and BOMs would help with cross-functional, too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Bluestar PLM solving and how is that benefiting you? BlueStar PLM is solving our challenge of disconnected engineering and ERP systems by seamlessly integrating CAD data and released produce data, creating one coherent product lifecycle processes in D365 F&O. Item creation and release has been streamlined, improving BOM accuracy, and reducing manual data entry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
