WORKS Software Suite from ASMPT

“Our WORKS Software Suite is already in use at many of our customers,” says Nicolas Bartschat, Head of Factory Solutions EMEA at ASMPT SMT Solutions. “WORKS bundles a multitude of practice-oriented applications that allow users to ensure a high level of quality in smart SMT production, improve the flow of materials, and make the deployment of personnel more effective and efficient. Many customers have asked us about a subscription-based licensing model, and we are now responding to this request.” 

Simple, predictable cost structure
The WORKS Software Suite bundles eight powerful applications for the typical workflows on the SMT shop floor: programming, logistics, preparation, operations, monitoring, optimization, and integration. In addition to the traditional lifetime license, WORKS is now also being offered with a modern subscription license, which may be the better option for many users because it offers several advantages: 
•    With the new model, customers receive new features and continuing developments of the software free of charge and are therefore always up to date with the latest technology.
•    Since no high initial investment is required, the software can be tested without having to overcome major financial hurdles. Due to the runtime model, the software generates added value that significantly exceeds the costs incurred on the first day of its use.
•    Depending on the usage intensity, the new subscription model is much more scalable, which reduces risk and makes planning more reliable.
Thanks to the software's clear subscription structure and simple pricing, electronics manufacturers have their costs under control at all times and are well-equipped for the future.
“More than ever, productivity is a question of optimizing the use of data these days,” explains Nicolas Bartschat, “and our WORKS Software Suite accomplishes this perfectly. Each application can be subscribed to individually, but the subscription-based WORKS Ultimate complete version offers the best price-performance ratio for most customers because they can use all applications without having to spend a lot of money all at once. If you are interested in the new subscription model and would like to compare side-by-side cost examples of the lifetime and subscription models, you can request a remote demo on our website.”
