The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Delogue PLM pricing starts at 145 euro per user per month on the Essential plan, charged per named user; PTC Windchill no pricing is published at any tier, and per-user rates are heavily negotiable on multi-year commitments, so the first quote a buyer receives is rarely the achievable price and small buyers without volume have little leverage.
  • They diverge on capability: Delogue PLM covers Product management, PTC Windchill covers Part and BOM management.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Delogue PLM

  • Pricing starts at 145 euro per user per month on the Essential plan, charged per named user
  • The Adobe Illustrator plugin, multi language compositions, advanced size charts and the compliance and analytics modules require the Professional plan
  • Supply chain and supplier modules, integration support and a dedicated key account manager require the Premium plan at 249 euro per user per month
  • Training sessions and ESG consulting are included only on Premium
  • Enterprise pricing is by quote and aimed at organisations with 40 or more users
  • Billing is quarterly or yearly rather than monthly

PTC Windchill

  • No pricing is published at any tier, and per-user rates are heavily negotiable on multi-year commitments, so the first quote a buyer receives is rarely the achievable price and small buyers without volume have little leverage.
  • Implementation dominates cost: data migration, configuration and training routinely account for the majority of three-year total cost of ownership, and large programmes run into seven figures of services.
  • Annual support and maintenance is charged as a percentage of licence value in the low-to-mid teens, so the bill continues indefinitely even in years when nothing is upgraded.
  • Upgrades between major releases are projects rather than updates, particularly where the deployment has been customised, and heavily customised sites often sit several versions behind.
  • The role-based licence tiers mean occasional participants such as purchasing or quality still consume paid seats unless you deploy Windchill Navigate, which is a further product to buy and configure.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Delogue PLM: How much does Delogue PLM cost?

Delogue does not publish pricing on its main website. The company directs potential customers to contact the sales team at [email protected] or +45 70 70 10 90 to discuss pricing, or to request a demo at https://www.delogue.com/en/plm-demo.

PTC Windchill: Is a perpetual licence still available?

PTC has moved decisively to subscription and now positions Windchill as a subscription product. Existing perpetual estates are supported but new perpetual sales are not the default route and should not be assumed.

Delogue PLM: How can I get Delogue pricing information?

Contact Delogue PLM directly at [email protected] or phone +45 70 70 10 90. You can also request a demo via their website, which typically includes a pricing discussion as part of the consultation.

PTC Windchill: How much does Windchill cost?

PTC publishes nothing. Expect role-tiered per-user subscription plus modules, plus support at a percentage of licence value, plus implementation services that usually exceed the software.

PTC Windchill: Does it require Creo?

No. Creo integration is deepest, but connectors exist for SolidWorks, NX, CATIA and Inventor. Mixed-CAD sites are common.

PTC Windchill: Is it overkill for a hundred-person hardware company?

Usually yes, unless you are in a regulated sector. Below that scale a cloud-native PLM will reach useful state in weeks rather than quarters.
