'Autodesk PLM is no competitor to us' - PTC CEO

During PTC's Q4 conference call yesterday, Blair Abernethy of Stifel, Nicolaus asked about the impact of Autodesk's upstart PLM service on PTC's Windchill:

Just want to get a sense of the competitive landscape on the PLM side. Particular over this past year, where we've seen Autodesk move more into this space, become more vocal, more higher profile. How is that impacting PTC in terms of your going to market?

PTC ceo James Heppelmann replied in the negative:

I'm unaware of any competition between PTC Direct Sales and Autodesk PLM. I'm completely unaware of any. I think where the competition would exist, if it did exist, would be in the reseller space. ...So I guess my view would be I don't think Autodesk is a competitive factor for us.
