Head-to-head

Feature marks summarise publicly documented capabilities. Notes explain material differences.

Feature Azumuta Poka
Digital Work Instructions Both support DWI; Azumuta's authoring is drag-and-drop with native multilingual.
Quality Management & in-line checks Both support frontline quality checks and inspections. Azumuta ships Quality as a core product module with production-linked workflows; Poka positions frontline quality execution as complementary to a QMS.
Skills Matrix & Training Both strong; Poka is training-heavy, Azumuta ties skills directly to authorisations and work instructions.
Audits & Digital Checklists Both support digital audits and checklists (including 5S and LPA-style workflows). Azumuta includes scheduled audits with corrective-action workflow as a core module.
Production tracking, traceability, OEE Azumuta includes native production tracking, traceability and OEE. Poka integrates with MES systems to surface production metrics and supports OEE-related operational workflows; it is not positioned as an MES. ~
Non-conformance management Both support shop-floor non-conformance and defect reporting with corrective actions. Formal QMS/CAPA depth can differ by deployment and integrations.
Offline mode on mobile / tablet
Multilingual authoring (10+ languages)
SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, SharePoint connectors Both connect to SAP and Microsoft Dynamics (D365). Azumuta offers native connectors; Poka connects via iPaaS/API (including Microsoft 365). SharePoint paths vary by connector setup.
OPC-UA device connectivity No native OPC-UA device connectivity is documented on Poka's public product pages; OT connectivity is typically via MES/SCADA integrations.
Industrial / operational AI Both offer industrial AI capabilities. Azumuta Intelligence works on quality, skills and production data together in-product.
Pricing model Azumuta uses a per-workstation subscription model. Poka uses enterprise quote-based pricing with no public price list. Packaging depends on deployment scope. ~ ~
