Overall Satisfaction with Arena
Our organization uses Arena all across different departments, from Design & Engineering to purchasing, manufacturing, and quality.
Pros
- Very robust in creating and maintaining Bills of Materials (BOM).
- Intuitive and easy to use ECO & ECR functions.
- Can keep all the necessary files for an item, including drawings, purchase specs, quotes, etc. in one place.
Cons
- The new version is slow in some browsers (I have tested in Opera, and the speed has decreased with the new update).
- There could be an option to review a 3D model inside Arena, instead of having to save a 3D model files and open it in CAD software.
- The interface could be more modern.
- Not involved in my field as an engineer.
Already purchased before I joined the company!

- Create and fill out ECOs
- Create Items
- Add files (new drop feature added recently is great)
- Add BOMs (you have to find it through "add items"....not obvious)
- Create ECRs (it is under "requests" which is not intuitive if you are used to using ECOs)
