Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"It is a stable solution."
"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"It's a very complete solution."
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."
"ARIS BPA is customizable as per specific business requirements."
"It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The simulation engine and SAP integration are technically very robust."
"Objects can be reused across different BPMNs and processes, so we can design new processes quicker and easier."
"The tool has good navigation."
"The capability to integrate all information of the business and to generate simulations of processes. It can analyze the model of operations quickly."
"The ability to sort via multiple criteria to identify the relationships you need for a specific object."
"Fully-reportable database over Visio."
"Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes."
"The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work."
"The benefit from the tool is we can develop it quickly and easily use it for middleware services. We can publish the services so other applications can consume them. This is providing us some reusability and a type of security."
"The support is good."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"One of the most valuable features of Oracle BPM is the workflow itself. It is quite intuitive."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle BPM is that it has a lot of out-of-the-box integrations. The solution also provides a lot of adapters which is very helpful."
"Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better."
"The solution is in English and we have added certain parts in Russian as this is easier for our students. It would be useful to have the system in Russian."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"There is a function to check if the model BPMN is being used correctly, but the report from the check is not always very clear."
"When you update a page, the information on the quick links sidebar on the left side doesn't stay in the same place. It moves down, so you have to scroll to find it. That's not very user-friendly."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"The areas of ARIS where we see room for improvement are actually related to the background services that support it. Over the last number of years, Software AG has moved from an on-premises solution into deploying a SaaS solution to their enterprise base. That has been really successful from my point of view, as I have been a customer of ARIS, managing the relationship, for a couple years. Certain support functions around the knowledge base, customer service, and the cross and upselling of modules within the core ARIS component are lagging behind the SaaS movement."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and better designed."
"The model graphics can be exported in PDF, but the model is too small to read."
"The standard out-of-the-box solutions for modeling are not so good. You have to do some configuration to make it easier and more user-friendly."
"They should make improvements as per customer requirements."
"I had a hard time with ARIS's access and licensing policy. It requires you to pay for each step you want to take forward with the solution."
"One of the biggest challenges is to realistically enable the defined structures of the processes that you have in ARIS documented, and then actually implement them in the business."
"I had this decentralization mission where I had some friendly fights with the consultants of Software AG. My opinion was the business department should be able to publish their processes and do all their evaluation stuff in ARCM themselves. It has to be a one stop shop. I want a one stop shop to go from ARIS BPM to ARIS ARCM, because having everything go through that would be an improvement due to the inputs that we made with Software AG. They will make it possible that the trigger sent from BPM to ARCM will start their object generation."
"The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems."
"Pricing is an area that could use improvement."
"Every time we roll out a new version of processes, we have to migrate to a new process. The process of this migration was not very smooth. We later decided that it would be easier for us to stop all processes, deploy a new version and then restart."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing structure."
"You have to maintain it manually."
"Oracle BPM is hard to configure."
"Existing APIs in the product need to be fine-tuned, made more robust and flexible for adoption."
