Opcenter vs. TrakSYS

Supports manufacturing where end to end traceability is required and integration between other enterprise products.

When you have manufacturing lines that need proper control and want to collect information based on how well it run then TrakSYS is ideal. TrakSYS has a template system that support generic setup of multiple lines. TrakSYS however is not ideal if you want to deviate too much from the template model. It is possible but defeats the purpose of the template system. Better then to write a customised solution outside of the software.

Opcenter best suits for the deseret manufacturing. It allows to customize and configure easily based on the customer need. Opcneter keeps the metada different than the operation data, so that it can be easily put on any database and switching between database is also very easy because of this feature. User friendly Opcneter Portal studio allows easy customization in case if any UI customization is needed. Modeling helps to configure one time master data setup. Designer helps to extend the meta data in case if needed.

Both are good products so it was a difficult decision. In the end of the day it came down to to TrakSYS being more customisable. However it is more expensive though.
