Data management

Looking to find out what everyone uses for data management systems and how they work for you. We are looking at Meridian and there seems to be one roadblock after another.

Just curios.

Thanks

You're opening a big can of worms. Your first step in this SHOULD have been defining your DESIRED workflow. Well OK you should have written down your existing one, then established the desired workflow. Your company may have some technical requirements too such as Oracle DB -vs- SQL or LDAP as a requirement etc.



Once you have a desired workflow (not a list of features, you can meet the requirements of a list of features and still not be able to perform a workflow) you should have suppliers demonstrate that workflow.



Lets say I'm a manufacturing engineer who designs and builds fixtures for production. The parts I design are very specific for that fixture, and probably won't ever be used again unless we expand production and need another identical fixture. For this application the pseudo-vault Autodesk supplies work work very well.



Now lets say I design conveyors. Each conveyor has new custom parts and a lot of tension adjusters. rollers etc. that I use again and again and again with each new design. I have a production release cycle with revision controlled parts. Autodesk's pseudo-vault would not be a good choice.



That is why other peoples advice in this formum may not be usefull unless you define your objectives and they have similar ones.

Our reseller has a program that I have heard good
comments on...we don't have the need for it here, but it's another avenue to
explore.

 


 

Good luck!

This is a constantly discussed topic in the CADManagers

wealth of information.
