Forrester Research explains the benefits of SaaS PLM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The reasons behind a company\u2019s decision to move to a SaaS PLM solution are numerous and every scenario is unique. However, when Forrester compiled its research, it was discovered the central theme among companies that are moving to a SaaS solution is to improve its business agility. This can be summed up in four major categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u23e9 faster deployment and development<\/strong> – SaaS PLM is ready to go with no need to procure hardware, perform testing, or install software<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udd01 frequent automatic updates to business functionality<\/strong> – users get the latest innovations and regulatory updates faster and less disruptively through frequent and incremental upgrades<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udfaf more sharing and collaboration <\/strong>powered by one version – all users are on the same version of software which eases best practice sharing and speeds time-to-value<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udf10 many-to-many digital business models<\/strong> powered by one version – collaboration is easier between employees, partners, customers and connected objects in a real-time, many-to-many way<\/p>\n\n\n\n
