Solution Architect at a pharma/biotech company with 10,001+ employees

A good tool that's great for modelling and building heat maps

During the first 18 months, for at least three months, we tried to get some training. We started working on the modeling part and we are still evolving in this tool. There are a few recommendations that have been put to the vendor, and we've gotten some answers and the team is evolving the tool in this space. I don't have anything to complain about right now, although there are a few things that we are discussing with the team who is connecting with the vendor to get that resolved. Specifically, we need to understand how the data could be segregated. We need to know how the enterprise-level metadata and master data could be managed in this tool. There are multiple open questions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The tool allows us to track the life cycle of products and resources. When the metadata is set up correctly, we can see where things are in their life cycle and how they fit into our processes. It helps us understand which core processes are active and whether any underlying elements need renewal. We can also keep tabs on the costs."

"It helps me to model the architecture at an enterprise level."

"This flexibility is the most helpful part in the standard version."

"This is a flexible tool compared to some other solutions."

"iServer is a solution that helps catalog enterprise architect solutions and catalog information."

"The solution is easily modified to suit your needs."

"The most valuable features of iServer are the integration with Microsoft Office and the interface is similar to Microsoft applications making them easy to use."

Cons

"We need to understand how the data could be segregated."

"The tool's data lineage could be enhanced. It would be great to see the data flow and understand where it's going within the system."

"It runs relatively slowly."

"Cannot see which activities are control activities."

"The one issue is that if you want to import predefined work, you need to put the licensing model in. So if you wanted to import work that was done before, you then need to buy a separate product for that."

"The modelling needs improvement, specifically forecasting capabilities and scenarios."

"The migration tool needs to be included in the main package, and not as a separate license."

"iServer should invest in enhancing the capabilities of the embedded drawing tool, draw.io."

"There can be some performance issues using the solution that should be improved. When you make modifications modify to files there are embedded data within that can take a while to process."

"iServer is a solid tool. Occasionally, we needed to contact the vendor to clarify details such as porting issues, missing components, and model specifics."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I use ADOIT's open-source version."

"The price of iServer is reasonable compared to other solutions."

"They offer annual subscriptions for developing countries, which are not affordable for small or medium businesses."

"Aim for the exact number of people who shall define/review approve and view the processes, as it will impact the cost."

"It's about 13K to set up and 9K for the license for three months. I think it's about 20K a year, but we haven't firmed up on pricing yet because the price depends on how long we commit to the solution."

"The solution is cheaper than its competitors."

"The product has a moderate pricing."
