Overall Satisfaction with Arena PLM and QMS

We utilize Arena for processes such as nonconforming material review, procedures, work instructions, and part drawings. Arena makes controlling non conforming parts much more easier than what we had before. Before everything was done by paper but with Arena its electronic and much more convient. Work instructions and procedures are reviewed and approved by Quality personnel before it gets released to production. Part drawings get updated by engineering before it hits design.

Pros

  • No more paper. Everything is electronic and easy to track.
  • Very straightforward and easy to use.

Cons

  • The layout can be updated to make it more user-friendly.
  • We identify which parts are aging the fastest, what needs attention, and who is responsible for their care.
  • We identify which parts are the most problematic and which suppliers have the highest material return rates. This helps us decide which vendors to use and which not to use.
  • Other
I believe cost is a crucial factor in our company's decision to use Arena. I do think Arena is easy to use and can be easily shown to someone new.
No experience with other similar products.

Arena PLM and QMS are well-suited for businesses that don't already have an organized system. It can be particularly beneficial for those who aren't already using digital software, such as Arena.
