    Been a long time, and it was called Agile then, and I did not use it a LOT, but my recollection was the interface was FAAARRR better than Arena PLM and QMS. Simple things like 'where uses' was a graphic with lines to all items/places where an items was used, including REF DES, …

    Expandable is hard to use compared to Arena PLM and QMS. Arena PLM and QMS is great when it comes to following the trajectory/ life cycle of products. One thing I like about Expandable is that it allows for the exportation of products and the BOM. This was a great feature that …

    Chose Arena PLM and QMS
    Arena PLM and QMS is significantly better than Mastercontrol in terms of usability. It is far more user friendly and less confusing.
    Arena PLM and QMS and Agile are about the same for me in terms of general user friendliness.

    Duro Labs did not have the best functionality or connectivity like Arena PLM and QMS does. Some syncs may be missed and not everything was update to date. Other times, some parts in BOMs would not be present and a new sync had to be performed. Any small change that Onshape …
