There is an "official" PDM system fully compatible and integrated into AutoCAD - Autodesk Vault.
Thank you for

"Official"
costs money :) It's probably the best application for AutoCad but is not that
affordable that other on the market. In fact "DBWorks" is much
cheaper alternative, and "GOPDM" is absolutely free! I am sure
everyone can find some advantages and disadvantages in each of them. Really,
you may not need all features for your work. That's why I am asking professionals
to advise what would be price/feature effective.
Thank you for
any input.

Not neccessarily - in fact Autodesk Vault Basic is included for free with many AutoCAD versions (e.g. AutoCAD Mechanical, Electrical, Civil 3D), plus with almost all other versions when they are under Subscription (e.g. AutoCAD, AutoCAD Architecture, AutoCAD Map, AutoCAD MEP, Plant 3D, ECSCAD).
