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

One person was able to handle the implementation.""The taxonomy support across all the phases is the most advantageous feature.""The most valuable features of this solution are its customizability, and flexibility in the configuration."

"It allows us to give a better description of our project than using the written word.""Its extensibility is most valuable.""It is valuable to have diagrams available in real time.""What is really powerful in Sparx is the way in which you can model business processes.

Cons
"We would like to see the visualization of assets, as well as artificial intelligence techniques to assist us in making our decisions.""The user experience, the layout and the different technologies behind the presentations are a bit old. These need to be updated. They should focus on web development. It's simply not supporting the current user experience guidelines.""The product is not great at implementing security frameworks across an end-to-end supply chain."

"There should be more cloud capabilities.""The solution could offer different sources for design.""The product is not very user-friendly.""A lot of product teams use a lot of visualizations for mapping out the product roadmap, brainstorming, or understanding the vision of the product, but Sparx is not a great visualization tool. Sparx has to improve the way for visualizing processes, journeys, software designs, etc. It would really benefit the product management teams or even enterprise architects.""In the next release, there should be more editable objects. We find Sparx Prolaborate very user-friendly, and having more features that are in the Enterprise Architect would be great, such as managing different versions of diagrams."
