Enhanced team collaboration

A standardized development environment enhances collaboration by keeping teams aligned, streamlining workflows, boosting productivity, and ensuring consistency across projects and teams.

Ensuring streamlined workflows and team efficiency

As embedded software grows more complex, teams must navigate multiple architectures and toolchains. Fragmented workflows slow development and reduce productivity. A unified platform integrates coding, building, debugging, and testing, improving maintainability and accelerating time to market.

IAR offers the industry’s broadest device support, enabling seamless transitions between 8-, 16-, 32-, and 64-bit architectures within a single IDE. Code reuse, faster onboarding, and long-term maintainability ensure development efficiency across projects.

IAR Embedded Workbench and IAR Build Tools integrate with CI/CD pipelines, automating validation and deployment. With support for Visual Studio Code, Eclipse, GitHub, and CMake, IAR eliminates tool fragmentation, improving productivity and reducing errors.

Maximizing efficiency for long-term gains

Switching toolchains is costly and time-consuming. Standardizing on IAR reduces training expenses, accelerates onboarding, and ensures long-term efficiency, allowing developers to focus on innovation, reliability, and performance—without toolchain limitations.
