Needs Robust Supplier Permissions Transfer

  • January 28, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
All the page layouts are clean and organized. Hierarchy view is responsive
What do you dislike about the product?
When a supplier user leaves, there's no easy process transfer visibility of changes to the new user.
Search is time consuming, and defaults to searching on single field instead of searching broadly and allowing user to filter.
Requiring entering password for every approval seems overboard.
Email notifications seem to be an all or nothing, instead of only notifying when an action is needed. And the emails are cluttered
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Controlling the Bill of Materials and Engineering Change Orders and communicating them to suppliers. It has been a big improvement over email.

Feature Rich, Great for Fast Implementation, Challenging for External Partners

  • October 25, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Implementation was very easy. The system allows me to control product data without having a full time document control person. It is also pretty easy for new users to pick up. Allows enough customization to fit a small agile business, without creating a months long implementation project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Exporting data to partners not in the ecosystem can be tough. I understand the business case, but when putting projects out to bid, I don't want to have to share Arena info with external folks. Also the ability to add unreleased items to a change, directly from the master change list.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hands off product data control. Allows engineering team to focus on product development.

It Takes Two to Tango

  • April 21, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Arena provides the tools to comprehensively support new product introduction and life cycle management. Users need to execute. Added the quality module to enhance our ISO 9001-2015 efforts. Added the training module to round out our compliance management efforts. Their training program was top notch.Their support group is very responsive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Minor issue: Some of the data entry is new a free flowing as I would expect. Too many clicks to get to the desired view. Project management needs some aggressive fine tuning. It misses the dynamic planing and tracking features present in other tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Documentation, traceability, communication. The system is very comprehensive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Add the training and quality worlds and you've got a really awesome and compliant system. Project management is nice and always improving.
