Scale development operations with freedom and flexibility

Traditional licensing agreements often come with reduced flexibility for distributed development teams and limitations regarding supported architectures and processors, leading to additional costs. IAR’s new platform offering promotes modern workflows in embedded software development by supporting distributed teams of varying sizes to collaborate on private, public, and hybrid cloud spaces. Developers gain maximum freedom in their choice of devices and silicon partners, enabling them to build single- and multi-core systems on Arm, RISC-V, and several other legacy architectures, without vendor lock-in.

Simplify compliance & strengthen security

Additional flexibility is also provided when adapting to new and ever-evolving requirements. IAR’s cloud-enabled offering includes tools for implementing functional safety and security features in applications according to standards such as MISRA, IEC, and ISO. These tools are built for developers looking to simplify the complexities of safety- and security-critical projects. With IAR’s support, they can design safe and reliable software that is ready for strict industry-standard certifications.

Accelerate innovation with code confidence

With the comprehensive tools offering packaged into a convenient cloud-ready subscription model, IAR empowers embedded software developers to improve their code’s quality and performance and take their software to deployment faster. The seamless development workflows enabled by IAR’s tools significantly increase efficiency, saving customers time and money and freeing up capacity for further innovation.

“IAR is transitioning from selling individual products with perpetual ownership to offering our entire toolbox in a platform, as a customer-friendly subscription service,” said Cecilia Wachtmeister, CEO of IAR. “The new cloud-enabled offering means lower initial costs for the customer and a high degree of flexibility and customization. Developers have all-access, and can collaborate globally, improve code quality, speed up time-to-market, and improve cost efficiency.”

In addition, since it is cloud-ready the new platform model enables continuous customer dialogue, allowing IAR to respond even faster and more effectively to customer needs and update tools more quickly. To continue delivering value to its customers, IAR will also foster its close cooperation with semiconductor vendors for early device support, long-standing RTOS partners, and major cloud service providers.
