Raise the Bar on Innovation with Cloud-Based PLM
Enhance your product lifecycle management (PLM) capabilities and amplify your product innovation with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud.
Go beyond traditional PLM with an innovation platform
Comprehensive product lifecycle management capabilities
When either newly implementing a PLM solution in your company or replacing an existing one, you would look for the typical functionalities any product lifecycle management software offers. These features may include bill of materials (BOM) management, product data management, digital mockups, project and quality management and so on. You will find all these features and more on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud.
These capabilities will not only help you achieve engineering and product design efficiency but also streamline end-to-end processes, improve quality, sustainability, and eliminate errors.
But, if your goal is to gain or to keep a competitive edge in the industry, is traditional going to cut it?
The need for an innovation platform
71%
of business leaders expect they'll have to accelerate new offerings just to maintain their market position.
To achieve meaningful innovation, you need to connect product, people and data in one single environment. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud enables you to move beyond traditional product lifecycle management and rethink your innovation process. Its cloud-based PLM solutions provide a single source of truth where your entire value network can:
- Collaborate seamlessly no matter the location
- Increase creativity using virtual twin experiences
- Leverage a holistic and real-time view into your processes
- Create more durable products and achieve sustainability targets
What makes the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud different?
- Seamless collaboration
- Single source of truth
- Cloud-based solutions
Seamless collaboration
Collaborate from early planning stages right through to development and final release. Accelerate cross-team collaboration and product development in a fully connected online environment where a single, shared product definition ensures internal teams and external collaborators are always seeing and working on up-to-date information - all while protecting your intellectual property.
Single source of truth
Optimize production locally and globally to develop and deliver products faster and more efficiently when your data sources are up-to-date and relevant to business decisions. Enable real-time concurrent design, enhance decision-making and accelerate design cycles.
Cloud-based solutions
Break free from IT constraints and bring together all aspects of your business on a single, secure cloud-based platform to increase collaboration, improve execution and accelerate innovation.
7 Reasons to Adopt Cloud-Based PLM on an Innovation Platform
A good PLM solution will enable you to easily collaborate, securely store data and deliver high-quality products faster and more efficiently. A cloud PLM solution on an innovation platform will accelerate innovation within your company and allow your business to grow.
Streamline your product validation process
Breaking down silos is one of the first steps companies can take to optimize their product validation process. By centralizing communication, data, simulation, CAD and project management tools in a unified environment, product validation becomes smoother, quicker and more accurate.

Frequently asked questions about cloud PLM on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
PDM (product data management) is a design-focused technology that centers around product design data within existing product development processes.
PLM (product lifecycle management) provides a process-centered approach to manage product lifecycles from inception to end-of-life, optimize processes and connect the entire enterprise.
Cloud-based PLM on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides product development teams with better flexibility and visibility as well as enhances collaboration thanks to always up-to-date data in a single environment. It is also easier and less costly to implement than its on-premise counterpart: all you need is a browser and an internet connection.
