| Fact | Cascadia PLM | Oracle Fusion Cloud PLM |
|---|---|---|
| Integrations | The pricing page lists optional Solid Edge and SolidWorks add-ins, and configurable ERP, MES, or CRM connectors including Epicor, Global Shop, and Odoo. | Oracle says PLM connects product lifecycle activity with Oracle SCM, CX, and ERP, while exact integration methods and configuration depend on each environment. |
| Intended users | The maker describes Cascadia as built for engineering and manufacturing teams, including teams moving from spreadsheets and defense or maritime engineering teams. | Oracle identifies product development organizations and roles including design engineers, product managers, quality, supply chain, sourcing, manufacturing, operations, and compliance teams as users. |
| Licence | The core PLM is licensed under GNU AGPL-3.0-or-later; commercial licensing is offered for organizations that cannot use AGPL or need enterprise capabilities. | Oracle's cloud-service agreement protects Oracle proprietary rights and ends use rights when the cloud subscription expires or is terminated, so Fusion Cloud PLM is proprietary commercial software rather than open source. |
