Arena PLM

Arena PLM is a full fledge product lifecycle management tool (PLM) which is being used since three and a half years in my company. In between this period I tried a few more PLMs but every time I bounced back on Arena because of its user-friendly interface and efficiency of the tool. It helps a company in a lot of many ways to increase the profit. This tool can be set up in very less time. This tool is also very cheap and hence a great opportunity for small companies anytime. Also, a free trial is availed for the new clients making it much more reliable as you can first try before spending money on it. This tool has helped my company in a lot of many ways.

This amazing tool does not lack much in any area and it does not even crashes or hangs up. Though the mobile application of the tool is a bit laggy and also takes some of the important feature, which is anyhow present in the desktop version. Also, the updates for the desktop version are often available but not for the mobile version which makes it tough for the clients who are more dependent on smartphone and it's application for their most of the work. Also, even the price of the tool is very affordable but if your company size increase and the number of employees increase, it would certainly increase your working cost.

My overall experience with this particular tool says that this tool is actually worth the cost. Indeed, it offers you much more than what you pay for. This app is always improving and giving you more features and facilities which benefits your business in the long run in numerous ways basically. Moreover, the customer support availed by the team is far better than any other software. It is for sure a perfect solution for PLM needs for any small business enterprise.

Arena PLM was very easy to use and very customizable for it to adapt to our business processes. I specifically like its short set up time and our team was very productive in just a week when we started using it. We are now able to perform our ‘What if’ shortage secenarios because of Arena PLM

Because Arena is a web based system, you can get locked into the software. Its tools allow tiny companies an easy access to well develop set of tools but as it grows, the cost per seat also starts to grow. Once the database has been set up, it then becomes hard to uproot it and then move to another type of solution.

I highly recommend this software because it is very easy to use even by any type of user. It doesn’t even require an IT for you to implement any administrative changes in the system. Aside from that, it is also Cloud Based, with a direct set up from Arena being an initial part of the set up.
