Product Details

What is Arena PLM and QMS?

Arena, a PTC business, helps companies to design, produce, and deliver innovative products with a unified cloud-based PLM and QMS platform. Arena understands modern product companies rely on distributed teams and global supply chains to develop products, ensure regulatory compliance (FDA, ISO, ITAR, EAR, and environmental compliance), and respond to customer demands.


Arena states that they have more than 1,400 global high-tech electronics and medical device customers. Companies with complex products comprised of electrical, mechanical, and software designs need a single system to collaborate in real-time. Arena enables every participant throughout the entire product lifecycle to work together–increasing visibility and traceability. This helps to accelerate new product development (NPD) and new product introduction (NPI) by streamlining processes, automating review cycles, and reducing errors to increase profitability.

Upon initial observation, Arena Solution appears to possess a rather intricate nature, yet this complexity was effectively navigated during the initial configuration phase with the invaluable assistance of an expert well-versed in Arena, a factor that greatly contributed to our comprehensive mastery and autonomous handling of Arena Solutions thereafter.

Support has always been quick and efficient. Feedbacks are always detailed and easy to understand. In the few cases that an issue was not resolved on the spot, Arena has always left these opened until they were reviewed and implemented at a later stage or in a future update when it applies.

Arena team has been very helpful in resolving our issues and the help section of arena is very helpful. the introductory sessions to help set up the arena has been really helpful. they have been consistently hosting arena training for new employees to learn on how to make the most out of arena and the price for which is pretty reasonable.

It has been rare when I have needed support, but my issue is always resolved in a fairly timely manner. It sometimes requires more explanation than I had initially expected, but the effort of support staff is always at or above expectations, and the resolution is satisfactory. More customized configurations will typically call for a longer resolution process with generic support staff.

They are quick to get back to you when you have a question. However, to become a 10, they should provide feedback on future enhancements / suggestions, as these tend to disappear into a black hole.

I do enjoy Arena and it's easy to use. It is more difficult for some users that don't use it as often and I tell them it's either use it or lose it. it's something that has to be used at least weekly to stay in tune with everything. I do think the yearly pricing is a bit costly.
