- They diverge on capability: NGC Software covers PLM, Propel covers Item and BOM management.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
NGC Software
- Pricing page has no published rates; only Request Demo and Let's talk contact options are offered
Propel
- Your product data lives in a Salesforce org, so a future decision to leave Salesforce becomes a PLM migration as well as a CRM one, and the extraction is not trivial.
- CAD data management is handled through connectors rather than natively; Propel manages metadata and files well but is not a substitute for a CAD vault on large assemblies.
- The published cost bands are extremely wide, from 10,000 to 500,000 US dollars a year, and setup can approach the annual licence, so early budgeting without a scoped quote is close to meaningless.
- Licence roles are split across Performance, Quality, Enrichment, Collaboration and Partner types, and buyers frequently discover mid-project that a user needs a more expensive role than budgeted.
- Salesforce platform limits such as governor limits, API call ceilings and storage allowances apply, and organisations with very large BOMs or heavy integration traffic hit them in ways a purpose-built PLM would not surface.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
NGC Software: How do I get pricing for Logility's apparel supply chain solutions?
Logility does not publish pricing on its website. You must request a demo or contact their sales team through the website to discuss pricing tailored to your business needs.
SourcePropel: Do I need to buy Salesforce separately?
No. Each Propel licence includes Salesforce platform access, and end users do not need their own Salesforce licences or Salesforce expertise.
NGC Software: Does Logility offer a free trial?
Logility does not publish trial information. You can request a demo to evaluate their solutions, but specific trial terms must be discussed with sales.
SourcePropel: Does being on Salesforce lock me in?
Practically, yes. The application, its configuration and your product data all sit in a Salesforce org, which is a real consideration at renewal.
Propel: What does it cost?
Propel publishes indicative bands rather than list prices: roughly 10,000 to 150,000 US dollars a year for a small deployment and 250,000 to 500,000 for a large one, plus setup.
Propel: Is it suitable for regulated medical devices?
Yes, that is a core segment; the quality module covers CAPA, non-conformance, audits and training records with electronic signatures.
