Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"One of the most valuable features is how user-friendly ARIS is, compared to other BPM tools. This tool has very diverse types of assets available. ARIS also has a lot of customizable options, different model types, object types, a number of attributes, and a lot of customization is possible. In comparison, Signavio is very limited in terms of model types and object types. So these customizations ARIS offers are really valuable to any client who wants to create a BPM repository.""We use the product for modeling, conducting process checks, doing process flow, running, and analyzing the report.""The most important feature is ARIS's ability to turn a process design into data to analyze anything you want. For example, we have some analysis reports in ARIS that can guide us when we want to change a system. It shows us how this change will affect all of the organization's processes.""It's really fast. It's much faster compared to Enterprise Architect.""The user interface is easy to work with.""The support team is very responsive."

"The user logic is very easy to understand, even for people who are not engineers nor developers.""It is quite a stable solution.""It has an easy to use interface which final users accepted with much more enthusiasm than our ERP (SAP).""Great mapping feature that's easy to use.""Bizagi is simple. It's simple to learn.""Great software for managing my business. I think this is the best business process management software.""The interface, design, and accessible user manuals to help get started using the solution are valuable features in Bizagi.""Bizagi is really great for beginners because it's user-friendly and you can learn in it quickly, whereas other similar software are harder."

Cons
"The support team takes a long time to respond to our queries.""We face problems when the product's capacity is increased.""This product could be improved by lowering the licensing cost. More organizations could use ARIS if they slashed the licensing costs even a little bit.""The product is not flexible.""The simulation part still has some way to go. It's a good feature, and it's something that other vendors don't have right now, but it can still be improved. Some features are needed in ARIS Architect, so advanced users can do things through drag-and-drop functionality.""You can have a collaboration feature, but it's necessary to have ARIS Connect which is a separate, costly product."

More ARIS Architect and Designer Cons →

"It needs some better notation functionality.""Agriculture, Industry.""One part of the university has changed its regular desktops to Linux. This is a weak point because Bizagi doesn't run on Linux. I would like the opportunity to run the software inside of Linux.""Framework approach, which extends to reusability in tools, like Pega, for deployment management could be improved.""Bizagi doesn't have integrations with other solutions, such as ERP systems. In the industry and your company, you have a lot of systems with which you need to integrate, but Bizagi doesn't have such integrations, which makes it very difficult. Its scalability can also be improved. It is good for a startup, but when you need something more complex, it is not good.""I would like to see simulation as a free feature again. In version 3.3 it was free, but in 4.0 it isn't.""The solution needs to make it easier to use RPA products on it. They may need an RPA specific interface. It would be better than having to make an RPA tool to use for viewing. Most of our work is about making RPA tools with the Bizagi, not using Bizagi itself.""Bizagi allows for automation, but it's very complicated."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The licenses are very costly. I've seen many people who are hesitant or not able to use ARIS Suite just because of the license cost. Even though they like all the functionalities and understand the value of everything ARIS provides, they aren't able to implement it."
  • "Many customers find the licensing configuration confusing. There are many different sub-details in the licensing, making it very difficult for us to understand what we are buying and what we are using with what."
  • "The product is expensive."
  • "The tool is a little bit expensive."
  • More ARIS Architect and Designer Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Pricing is good value for money."
  • "For the prices, we didn't try a negotiations about licensing or pricing, but if i can say a word about this, I find Bizagi prices to be well thought out."
  • "The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
  • "It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."
  • "If they can freeze the pricing in a contract, I advise them to do so."
  • "I think that its price is reasonable."
  • "This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
  • "The Bizagi modeler can be downloaded free of charge."
