Implementer

Implementer process and feature

製品を使ってみた感想： Good experience no problems has long has you have it setup correctly we sometime encounter failure with request that main problem seem to always be a library list problem we also using special commands to control move request because some of our as400 system we are running library out of a IASP so we need the special commands to change over to correct iasp before we promote a move and that works great.

良いポイント:

help with the change management process make making changes to program and file easy help with Sox Reporting Great tracking system of information for request and moves request to QA and Production very dependable not a lot of issues encounter very efficient.

改善してほしい点:

noting very good product our developers use it every day we have 4 different developement host systems and we promote to about 26 receiver system and all work very well.

Implementer Review

製品を使ってみた感想： Outside of the SQL issue described previously, experience has been great. It does what we need it to do. I wish there was better support for large deployments where objects are deployed from/to multiple environments. Having to create a request for each target environment is a pain. However, not a major issue for us.

良いポイント:

Change management with programs and service programs works great. I like the RDI plugin. For the most part the product documentation is good and an excellent source to find information on how to setup and use Implementer.

改善してほしい点:

Implementers ability (or lack thereof) to deploy SQL tables/Indexes when the tables have referential integrity. This type of deployment is a major pain. These types of deployments will rarely complete without errors. The error messages don't provide a good explanation of the issue or resolution. My work around is to remove all the constraints prior to deployment and add them back post deployment. Another area I think is lacking is the green screen interface is the only administration option. Having a web based UI to configure/manage Implementer would be a nice enhancement.

FlexPLM tool review

製品を使ってみた感想： Worked wit multiple implementors and everyone is equally knowledgeable followed by the tool collaboration five teams during implementation- Customization, Configuration, integration , data migration and testing team.

良いポイント:

The stop gap solution for Retail, Footwear, Apparel and the beauty of this tool is easy to configure and customize the application for integrating the legacy systems.

改善してほしい点:

Configuration deployment takes more times than expected and Containerization is difficult followed by any changes to the properties file needs a restart which causes lot of hindrance during feature toggle functionalities.

Robust software for your change management

良いポイント:

Implementer is really easy to use; I've onboarded many new developers to use the software, and they became conversant with the use in a short time. I love the archiving feature, from which I can review many versions of the software revisions, or back out problem code. Also, the y have terrific support, whether you role is a developer or admin, the PTC support crew respond to the tickets pretty quickly.

改善してほしい点:

I found it a bit of a learning curve to setup and use ILE modules. I found the manual outline this in great detail, so I did not reach out to PTC support to resolve this.
