A clear view for managing portfolio growth, governance, and cost drivers or containment
I have just started toward the goal of implementation, so don't have much knowledge of the solution beyond my initial training. It is important for any company to define what they want from the solution. For example, one recommendation is that companies pick questions they want answered right at the outset. One company might say they want to know about their application landscape. Another company might say they want to see cost drivers. If you strategically prioritize your questions, then you will be able to go through implementation with less pain. Based on my use so far, I see the potential of the solution. I have been part of the company for a long time so I understand its pain points. I believe the solution is the right tool to get a clear view of governance, cost drivers, and cost containment. I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

The solution is scalable and easy to set up, but it is not very user-friendly
People must start using the product as soon as possible. It certainly will be the way we engineer in the future. It's already the way we are engineering. Organizations must invest time and effort to set it up and get it running. I rate the user-friendliness a five out of ten. However, I rate the product’s functionality a nine out of ten. Overall, I rate the product a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has provided us with a view of the truth in terms of our application portfolio."
"It is valuable to have diagrams available in real time."
"Sparx Prolaborate is user-friendly, easy to use, and has good documentation."
"What is really powerful in Sparx is the way in which you can model business processes. You can link business processes to organizational objectives. You can also take those business processes and link them to specific product features that you want to deliver."
"It allows us to give a better description of our project than using the written word."
"Its extensibility is most valuable."
 

Cons

"The initial setup is challenging because it relies on information from different stakeholders."
"There should be more cloud capabilities."
"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."
"The solution could offer different sources for design."
"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."
"The product is not very user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am with a third-party so am not privy to costs."
"The product is expensive."
"The price of Sparx Prolaborate is good."
