    Additional Details—ISO+™'s pricing model includes: A. Customised Platform Pricing The base cost of ISO+™ is determined by a one-time configuration fee, which varies based on: - The compliance standard(s) to be implemented (e.g. ISO 9001, ISO 27001, NDIS, Aged Care) - The scope of certification (number of sites, business units, or departments) - The modules and functionality required (e.g. Product Design, Job Management, CRM, etc.) B. Subscription In Addition to the A. Customised Platform Pricing, it is $10 per active user per month. This can be discounted according to the number of users. Active users are defined as team members who require login access to the system (e.g. administrators, managers, workers).

This is to make collaboration easy and cost-effective, especially for businesses that work with multiple third-party stakeholders.

    Aras Corporation
    Aras PLM works for our company, yet I don't have experience with any other software system. The system does not refresh and update quickly. Often times users need to force a refresh or logout and logon to verify changes and updates. The Lock and Unlock feature needs getting used to.

    Cons
    Aras Corporation
    • Aras PLM uses terms and labels that can be confusing like Subsystem / Subsystem Version, Project Record Number (PRN). Companies need to understand these terms and develop business processes to set user standards.
    • I personally use Aras PLM to manage information technology project documents. In my opinion, Aras PLM is more geared to product and engineering. I would like to see a general project management Aras PLM version with terms and labels that I am familiar with.
    • The description field should be made required. Many of our engineers have created records and left that blank because it was not required. This would help with the context or background of each record.
