What is Arena QMS?

Arena QMS is a cloud-based, product-centric quality management system that provides businesses with tools to build a single source of truth and ensure regulatory compliance across the entire product lifecycle. Our multilayered security model also ensures your intellectual property (IP) is always safe and secure.

Arena QMS connects quality records directly to the product design in a single system. We help you document and track closed-loop quality processes for device master records (DMRs), design history files (DHFs), training records, and corrective and preventive actions (CAPAs) in context to the entire product record and bill of materials (BOM).

Arena QMS allows organizations to configure role-based access for employees and facilitate collaboration among team members or supply chain partners. Managers can conduct quality assurance tests, identify potential issues, and review or revise test specifications according to requirements. It also lets users streamline operational processes in compliance with various industry regulations, such as FDA 21, CFR Part 820, and ISO 13485.

Arena QMS provides an API, which enables businesses to integrate the platform with various third-party applications, such as Microsoft Dynamics, Zendesk, Salesforce, Kenandy, and more. The software also helps users manage intellectual properties (IPs) and share product records with suppliers or design partners. Arena QMS also connects with the solutions you use every day to maximize your results and get products to market even faster.

Pros
My experience with Arena has been fantastic so far. They aim to please and are improving the product all the time.
Overall the software has been very useful to our company and the customer service has been outstanding.
Arena BOM management and change control are outstanding.
Cons
Searches are confusing, and notifications are confusing. Circulating documents through Arena is a hassle.
A team that no longer is with the company made a number of decisions that ended up causing a lot of trouble (for me specifically, as the admin/quality rep) in the future.
While using the software at times I am automatically logged out or the App will crash causing me to have to re login and either look for my last page or use some time waiting for it to log in.
