What does Creo mean to partners? And are you sure it’s a good idea to put product development in more hands? In this group of videos, Jim Heppelmann, CEO of PTC, and Mike Campbell, Divisional Vice President of Creo Product Development answer questions related to Creo’s impact on partner and customer businesses. We’ve summarized their answers in just a few words (for you skimmers), but you’ll want to view the complete videos for details.

Q. Can PTC software partners easily update their solutions to work with Creo 1.0?
“The effort should be comparable to supporting a new release.”


Q. How does Creo help the whole company contribute to product development?
“By providing simple apps for each role.”


Q. Why does PTC think it’s a good idea to give  everyone the tools to be a  product developer?
“For the same reason it was a good idea to give everyone a word processor—not just writers and secretaries.”
