Agile 9.2.2 Released, 2 in a Series

By DE Editors

Agile Software Corporation has released Agile 9.2.2, with a new set of capabilities so companies can automate much of their product lifecycle management (PLM) processes. Embedded and enriched decision support capabilities in this release are designed to help companies make better strategic and operational decisions about their products.

Among a host of new and improved capabilities in this release are a streamlined user interface and navigation that are aimed at simplifying the process of accessing valuable product record information. Project summary pages, bookmarks, and quick links enable users to quickly access frequently used information. Powerful parametric search and virtual classification make design reuse fast and simple, says Agile.

The out-of-the-box, extensible decision support capabilities now available in the latest version of Agile 9.2 offer customers an opportunity to drive significant value to their businesses. Personalized, easily configurable dashboards provide insights and views into the enterprise product record for both executives and those in operational roles. Event-based subscriptions provide users with proactive, exception-based notifications on product lifecycle status. Prepackaged PLM performance and analytic applications, specifically in the areas of product quality and portfolio management, deliver rapid time-to-value, clear executive-level visibility, and proactive analysis of PLM process performance.

Agile 9.2.2 also provides enhanced business process and collaboration capabilities, enabling companies and their product networks to securely manage and collaborate on shared business processes across functions and enterprises. Agile provides a number of out-of-the-box capabilities and customers can easily configure their own relationships based on their specific business practices. Additionally, enhancements to the Agile Product Portfolio Management (PPM) application allow companies to better coordinate deliverables, tasks, and schedules across organizations, global sites, and partners. 

In this current release, Agile enables users to better leverage the Internet and public product data sources to streamline the design for cost and compliance business processes. Agile PLM seamlessly connects to part catalog information, retrieving timely information such as part cost, end of life, and compliance attributes.

“Agile has traditionally been recognized for its support of engineering-to-manufacturing business processes across a supply network, particularly related to high-tech electronics product-related businesses,” said Ed Miller, president of CIMData. “The new Agile 9.2.2 continues with this theme and includes numerous enhancements to improve the user experience and significantly expand its embedded decision-support capabilities. Agile customers should benefit from these new capabilities and the expanded breadth and flexibility offered to support daily decision-making operations.”
