The short version

Where each one falls short

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

Plex Manufacturing Cloud

  • There is no on premise option, so a plant whose line-side terminals must keep working through a network outage needs a mitigation plan, and connectivity becomes a production dependency rather than an IT concern.
  • Every customer runs the same version on the vendor's schedule, so you cannot defer a release to fit around a plant shutdown or a customer audit and must absorb regression testing on the vendor's cadence.
  • Customisation is limited to the platform's own configuration and extension tools, which is what makes the single version model possible but means a process you cannot express within those tools has to change rather than be accommodated.
  • The financial modules are less developed than the operational ones, so groups with complex multi-entity consolidation, statutory reporting in several countries or sophisticated planning requirements often keep a separate finance system alongside it.
  • Country localisations and language coverage are narrower than the tier one vendors offer, which limits the product for a manufacturer expanding into markets with demanding local tax and reporting rules.

TeamSystem

  • No pricing is published anywhere on the site; the homepage directs buyers only to consult with TeamSystem's own sales consultants to identify a customized solution
  • The product is split across many separately branded modules (ERP, accounting, HR, CRM, e-commerce, legal, construction, hospitality), so there is no single price to evaluate

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Plex Manufacturing Cloud: Can I run Plex on my own servers?

No. It is delivered as multi-tenant cloud software only. If you need an on premise deployment, this product cannot meet that requirement at any price.

TeamSystem: How much does TeamSystem cost?

TeamSystem does not publish pricing on their website. Specific rates depend on the product and your organization's needs. Contact the sales team or visit their product catalog for details.

Source
Plex Manufacturing Cloud: What happens to my customisations at upgrade time?

There are no customisations in the traditional sense. Extensions are built with the platform's own tooling and are carried forward by the vendor. That is the trade you are making: less freedom to modify, no upgrade project.

TeamSystem: Does TeamSystem offer a free trial?

Trial availability is not specified on TeamSystem's public website. Contact sales to inquire about trial options for their products.

Source
Plex Manufacturing Cloud: Has Rockwell's ownership changed the product?

It has placed Plex inside a portfolio with Rockwell's automation, maintenance and analytics products, which pulls the roadmap towards integration with that estate. Whether that helps depends on whether your plant runs Rockwell equipment. Ask about the specific roadmap items you care about.

Plex Manufacturing Cloud: Is the finance module enough on its own?

For a single country manufacturer, usually yes. For a group consolidating several entities across countries with statutory reporting obligations, ask specifically about your requirements, because this is the part of the product most likely to fall short.
