keytech Release 10 is now available. The first feedback of our pre-release customers included the following comment: "The improvements are significant; we look forward to the new Release!"
One word which focuses the achievements attained with release 10 is: "Usability."
The usability has improved through considerably restructuring and expanding the functionality of the application once again. The effectiveness of the release is also increased by the direct addition of PDF and edrawing files preview and generation capability.
The heart of the application is its integration and the new storage dialogue clearly offers more ease of use due to the assembly structure overview prior to storing new or changed documents.
The new administration user interface provides a simpler and quicker method of controlling the administration functions.
In the base application, many changes allowing more efficient working with design data, exploration of the data relationships and links are included.
Through the innovations employed in the new release keytech PLM is well prepared for the future requests of the industry.
