With the help of the newly revamped ManagingAutomation.com, you can now conduct side-by-side comparisons of products such as the PLM software discussed in this article.

There are three ways to use the Product Comparison Tool at ManagingAutomation.com. Start by pointing your browser to here.

From there, specify your industry, company size, and platform and database requirements (if applicable). Next, choose the "Browse" option if you know which companies or products you'd like to review; "Compare" to view listings by specific category; or "Match" to specify certain features/functions in advance of the search. From the product listings returned, select those you want to view in a matrix like the one below. Remove or add listings, choose more features, edit your search filters, and compare again, as many times as you like. Comparisons and preferences can be saved to your "my MA" profile for easy future reference.
