Overall Satisfaction with Arena PLM and QMS
Arena is used company-wide for ECOs, ECRs, purchasing, and inventory
- Easy to use
- Provides excellent Help data and videos
- Search features makes looking up existing changes easy
- ECOs - cannot Edit fields after Submitting for routing.
- Connecting NCRs, ECRs and ECOs is difficult.
- Doesn't allow for up front coolaboration
- Has made our objectives easier to reach
- Negative impact on Quality - can close NCRs without ECO being completed or even submitted
- Cost - since ECOs cannot be edited, additional ECOs are needed because it is hard to add to existing ECOs already Submitted for Routing
- Price
- Product Usability
Lower cost for [our] company that was small at the time. Now that we have grown, no longer that useful
No - does not allow a place for Implementation to be viewed clearly.
