RE: Doc version control - in-house

["McLauchlan, Kevin" <Kevin -dot- McLauchlan -at- safenet-inc -dot- com>]

When you say "online" do you mean:

a) the customer runs a server, and their personnel access the content via a browser interface through their intranet and extranet?

or

b) you provide the server-side app(s) and storage, and the customer accesses their own stuff via browser ?

Caveat: I work for an online PLM app (Arena). Ours is aimed at small-to-medium businesses while Agile is for the monster companies.

Ours is a subscription-based model for BOM and Change Management. A lot of our customers do use it for Doc Control, and our file management is quite robust. Users can make a file an "item", thereby applying revision control. And you can choose to enforce Change Control at the In Design or In Production stage of the item lifecycle--setting up Change Control Boards for approval of new revisions.

Agile works in very much the same way, but their online offering was shelved when Oracle bought them. I believe they are bringing it back now.

Sorry for any perceived plugging--feel free to contact me off list if you want any more PLM info.
