Azure Marketplace now gives engineers the ability to purchase Aras software.
“Aras is generally seen as one of the strong suppliers of PLM software due to its Innovator platform and its applications for designing, building and operating complex products,” wrote engineering.com’s Verdi Ogewell in response to the Forrester 2023 Wave Report. “Aras received a high ranking for compliance, sustainability, green PLM support, performance and its innovation roadmap.”
The Azure Marketplace enables users to buy, sell and run tools and solutions that are certified on Azure. In other words, Aras should be ready-to-use for any engineer using Microsoft’s cloud.
“Through our Microsoft relationship,” said Roque Martin, CEO of Aras, “we’re delivering expanded deployment options for our customers and enabling them to take more advantage of their existing Microsoft Azure agreements to use our SaaS-based offering. Aras Enterprise SaaS has the power to meet organizations’ most complex business requirements.”
The Aras software-as-a-service (SaaS) offering includes low-code PLM, systems engineering and digital thread functionality that is highly customizable and scalable. It also delivers frequent upgrades, which reduces the compliance and risk issues associated with delayed updates.
“As cloud-based PLM solutions gain market traction, the enabling technologies have evolved substantially,” says Peter Bilello, President and CEO of CIMdata. “Aras Enterprise SaaS … offers full PLM functionality that’s suitable for companies with complex products and a high design content—and it’s fully configurable with no limits on the applications that can be developed or the underlying data model.”
