As organizations grow, disconnected systems create delays, manual work, and costly integration challenges. Arena Connect is an embedded iPaaS that helps manufacturers automate workflows, eliminate manual data transfers, and keep information synchronized across the product enterprise. Because it’s embedded directly in Arena, teams can build and manage integrations in the same environment used to manage product and quality information.
Integration platform as a service (iPaaS) is a cloud-based integration framework that enables organizations to seamlessly connect systems and data across diverse IT environments, including cloud, on-premises, and hybrid architectures.
Historically, manufacturers have relied on custom point-to-point integrations to connect critical business applications. Unfortunately, these approaches require significant time to implement and incur costly maintenance.
Arena Connect provides a unified integration engine to help you:
By making integrations easier to build, manage, and scale, Arena Connect keeps teams focused on innovation rather than on integration maintenance.
Arena Connect is designed to integrate Arena PLM and QMS into the broader product ecosystem, including:
With support for cloud and on-premises applications, you can create a connected digital thread spanning product design, manufacturing, and quality.
Arena Connect expands the Arena Developer Platform by combining APIs, webhooks, data services, workflow automation, and orchestration into a single embedded experience. You gain the flexibility to choose the integration approach that best fits your needs—from no-code automation to code-native integrations.
Reduce Technical Barriers
Empower process owners and business teams to create and manage integrations with intuitive low-code and no-code tools rather than relying exclusively on IT resources
Accelerate Time to Value
Use pre-built workflow templates and connectors to quickly deploy common integration scenarios and automate business processes
Lower Total Cost
Reduce development effort, costly maintenance, and the ongoing burden of managing individual integrations across multiple systems
Improve Data Accuracy
Eliminate manual re-entry and ensure that product, quality, and operational data remain synchronized across systems
Scale Without Rebuilding
As your products, systems, and processes evolve, Arena Connect scales without requiring teams to continually rebuild the integration architecture
Future-Proof Your Business
Support evolving business needs with a platform that connects cloud, on-premises, and emerging technologies while maintaining visibility and flexibility
Design, test, and manage workflows through an intuitive visual interface that supports both low-code and advanced development use cases. Customize existing workflows or create new process automations
Accelerate implementation with out-of-the-box workflows, connectors, and templates for common integration scenarios. Hundreds of reusable components help reduce development effort and speed adoption.
Automate workflows using Arena Events Engine, webhooks, and custom triggers. Whether automating collaboration updates or synchronizing enterprise systems, Arena Connect keeps information flowing across the organization.
Gain visibility into workflow executions, audit history, logs, alerts, error handling, and version management via a centralized dashboard.
Choose the right level of customization for every use case. Use no-code self-service workflows, low-code visual builders, or code-native development.
build workflows faster and reduce dependency on outside developers or system integrators
reduce integration backlog, simplify maintenance, and focus resources on strategic initiatives
improve agility, accelerate implementation timelines, and extend the value of technology investments across the organization
