Hi community, I’ve heard rumors that Aras is planning to move the forum to a different platform or provider. Does anyone know what changes are actually planned as part of this transition? For example: Will the forum remain publicly accessible, or be limited to subscribers only? Will existing content and links still be available? From what I’ve seen in Aras blog articles, the forum has become a valuable resource - especially because it’s well indexed by search engines. You can just Google (or use AI...) and find answers to almost anything. That wouldn’t work anymore if the forum becomes restricted or goes behind a login wall. If it’s just a technical platform switch and everything else stays the same - great, no problem at all. But if there are major changes planned, I think the community should know in advance. If this change does happen in a more disruptive way, I personally might consider switching over to the Reddit r/ArasInnovator forum instead. I’ve tried to get some insights directly from Aras, but as always... they like to keep things mysterious. Or maybe everyone’s just on summer vacation... [emoticon:4191f5ee34e248a29fa0dbe8d975f74a] Thanks in advance if anyone has more information!Solved0Views0likes3CommentsAras Builders! The Virtual Tech Summit is Just Around the Corner
Want to see some real-world challenges developers have solved with the Aras platform and learn how they did it? Want to connect with other Aras Community members in an open forum? Want to do it all for free? Join us for the virtual Aras Tech Summit live on September 19 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM US EDT. What's a Tech Summit? The Tech Summit is a small, 1-day pre-conference session we host at our onsite Aras Community Event (ACE) in the US and some of our Aras Connect events in Europe. The format is simple: In the morning, Builders—developers and other hands-on folks who create solutions on the platform—gather for "show & tell" to showcase their projects and get inspired by others' cool ideas. Then, participants regroup after lunch for open forum discussions, where everyone can ask and answer questions or exchange ideas on various technical topics. It's a beloved tradition that Aras Labs’ AJ Sebastian summed up well in his post-ACE blog this year. Why (virtually) mess with a good thing? While we love our in-person events and plan to continue to host them, two factors are behind our decision to try a virtual format for this event: frequency and inclusivity. Optimize frequency We often hear feedback that attendees would like to engage with the technical community more frequently. Supplementing the onsite events with an online offering means we can help folks connect between our conferences. Convenience and accessibility Onsite events pose logistical constraints (like travel restrictions) and exclude potential participants who can't secure the budget or time to travel to our in-person events. Now, you can attend from anywhere, with a shorter time commitment to expand the reach and increase networking opportunities. Access Expert Knowledge Gain direct access to industry leaders, innovators, and technical experts who might not otherwise be available at in-person events. Virtual summits provide opportunities to hear from top-tier speakers without geographical limitations. Virtual Tech Summit Highlights Here are some highlights attendees can look forward to: Get the inside scoop The new Aras SVP of Product Management, Igal Kaptsan, will introduce himself to the community and share key insights into his product philosophy. We'll also share a quick update on the Build with Aras initiative our CEO, Roque Martin, announced at ACE US in March. Learn how they built it We have great presentations lined up that demonstrate not only a solution built on the Aras platform but also how and why it was built. Builders from Aras and the Aras Community will outline a business problem, discuss how they built the solution, and show the result. These speakers will touch on various PLM and technical topics, including web services, low-code modeling, mobile-friendly applications, serialized part manufacturing, and BOM to CAD management. Learn what's coming up for the Aras Community We'll have a quick update on upcoming events for the Aras Community. Be ready to mark your calendars with the next online and in-person events! Connect with fellow Builders We'll wrap up the virtual event with an open forum discussion for all participants. This segment is an excellent opportunity to ask other community members how they've solved a similar problem, exchange ideas, or ask follow-up questions of the day's presenters. Don’t miss this opportunity! If the virtual Tech Summit sounds like your kind of event, be sure to sign up and save the date: September 19 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, US EDT.

Both the Subscriber Portal and these community pages are under the domain community.aras.com Well, I was in class and I said I could never login to the subscriber portal. It was suggested that I use "Reset Password", so I did. I thought it was broken because the spinner never stopped, but I did end up getting an email with a short scrambled password in it. I was expecting to not be able to login here, to Community, with my old credentials. But, I can. And, if I go to the Subscriber Portal at: https://community.aras.com/subscriber-portal/p/login I need to go lookup the email and use that new password. Well, I hope I can get some community voices supporting my problem as a must-fix! Having two logins for the same domain is silly. It wouldn't be a problem if the login credentials worked for both and it appeared seamless. Even if there were two "buckets" at the very least I could then changed my Subscriber login password to one I can remember (and has more complexity than what is sent in a "reset" email)!3.5KViews0likes2CommentsApplying a Filter to a Search Dialog

ACE 2018 was all about Fast Track to Digital Transformation. Perhaps an obvious theme, given it’s the home of the venerable Indianapolis 500, but when most people think of PLM, velocity is not necessarily what comes to mind.
