ADONIS vs ARIS Cloud comparison

"ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making."

"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"

"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."

"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."

"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."

"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."

"ARIS Cloud offers easy query writing for retrieving information and includes a user-friendly Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) part that aids risk managers effectively."

"Aris Connect opens collaboration opportunities between team members within the organization where they can actually submit change requests, navigate processes, and offer comments. It opens up the potential for BPM within the organization. I didn't see such an angle of a BPM portal with any other products. So I would say that's the best selling feature."

"In terms of UX design, somebody who has not had experience with ARIS will be able to use it very easily."

"It has proved that it also works in complex circumstances."

"The cloud version has the advantage that you can work on it from anywhere."

"The most valuable feature is GUI; it is very intuitive and easy to use."

"From a total cost of ownership perspective, running this on the cloud is more efficient than having someone in the company take care of the infrastructure."

"The solution's most valuable feature stems from its being very easy to use, making it a very user-friendly tool."

"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."

"ADONIS needs improvement in its user interface functionality."

"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."

"ADONIS needs improvement mainly in user-friendliness, setup, and installations. As an administrator at that time, I found it quite difficult to manage users because I needed to open specific software, possibly Java-based, which is not web-based and should be installed first to manage the users."

"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."

"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."

"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."

"Initial setup is rather complex. You have to find a way to isolate the complexity, and find common ground."

"The trial version of this solution does not give you enough time to learn how to use it, so it should be extended to one year."

"There is room for improvement in the support."

"The stability was poor due to frequent outages."

"If you have multiple tiers of approvals into that update of the policy, or the process design itself, it takes ages to prepare those internal flows within the system."

"It would be very helpful if this solution were more open and could integrate with other solutions like ServiceNow."

"ARIS' flexibility and power add a certain complexity. And if ARIS could be more streamlined, I think customers would have a better handle on what to do with it in the end. So if you're not a tech geek, you might struggle to understand what you should do with it as a customer because it's that powerful."

"I encounter challenges, and I am using Yuri to establish principles, define rules, conduct training sessions, and offer coaching to application owners, SMEs, and individuals responsible for technologies. This aids in providing support during these migrations. Security is a consideration when migrating to the cloud. It's crucial to address potential risks and include security measures in the contract with the cloud provider. While there haven't been issues so far, acknowledging the risks is essential, especially when dealing with applications like ARIS. With the increasing capabilities and advancements in technology, many current challenges are likely to be resolved in the future. Despite security concerns, utilizing opportunities in the cloud and the internet offers significant advantages. Regarding areas for improvement, security remains a key consideration, especially when deploying ARIS in the cloud. However, this is not solely a product-specific concern but also pertains to the cloud environment. Beyond security, the strength of ARIS lies in its ability to serve as a unified repository for enterprise architecture. Having all information in one place facilitates alignment with the company's vision, strategy, and business objectives. Reducing redundancies across departments is crucial for maintaining service quality and minimizing costs. It ensures that everyone is on the same page, fostering collaboration and preventing discrepancies in information and services. While I currently use Guardis for this purpose, the concept of enterprise architecture is applicable, and ARIS stands as a valuable tool to support business processes and technology alignment within the company."

"The product's pricing is medium, so I rate it a five out of ten."

"The product’s price is quite competitive."

"There is a student version of this solution that can be used for free."

"The cloud deployment is not more expensive. In the cloud, you pay for what you use, and there's no need for maintaining infrastructure or additional personnel, making it cost-effective. On-premises deployment, on the other hand, involves infrastructure costs and maintenance expenses."

"The licensing model of ARIS Cloud is leaner and more beneficial to the customer. The new license model is great. With the on-premise, you needed to subscribe to many more types of licenses. Now there are licensed bundles available on the cloud."
