The Arena PLM & QMS platform is designed primarily for larger electronic, medical device and aerospace companies, and its pricing reflects that fact.
Arena offers 4 tiers for different requirements and price points: QMS, QMS Enterprise, PLM Launch, and PLM Enterprise.
As with any SaaS eQMS platform, Arena QMS pricing takes the form of an annual subscription that will vary depending on your specific needs. Its listing on the AWS marketplace, however, shows a typical cost of $2,268 per user, per year. You should therefore only consider an Arena quality management investment if you have the appropriate budget:headcount ratio.
