Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I am an advanced user. ARIS BPM is intuitive for me because I know the UML, BPMN, and EPC methodologies implemented in this tool. It is very easy to create processes for restructuring a company with some descriptions.""ARIS is probably the most mature product in terms of modeling an enterprise architecture so that it has context.""The most valuable feature is the flexibility of the solution to fully customize the methodology according to the company's needs, and to enforce that methodology with features like filters, semantic checks, and reports.""The tool has good navigation.""The solution has come up with a web portal that makes it easy to model and show to clients.""From an architectural point of view, when you're looking at the business area, you can find all the information you have to use as an architect.""​The matrix model makes building relations easier.​""The most valuable feature is the process documentation. For us, ARIS is a lifestyle more than a tool. It helps us learn how to think and how to plan for our system."

More ARIS BPA Pros →

"The user interface is easy to use.""The user interface is better than all of the open-source BPMs that I have tried.""Compared to other products on the market, Bonita presents a pretty acceptable level of robustness.""The most valuable features of Bonita are the connectors, detailed documentation, and web applications. The documentation was useful because it is how I learned how to use it.""The solution is stable. Even the older versions are stable.""I really enjoy using the workflow management.""This product is very easy-to-use and user-friendly.""One of the most valuable features is you can create without coding, it is a low code platform."

More Bonita Pros →

"The initial setup isn't too complex."

More WebRatio Pros →

Cons
"​Training is one of the important aspects for process awareness. As soon as a process is rolled out, process training is required. If ARIS could generate output in PowerPoint, it would be great for business users.""The tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond.""The interface is a little archaic.""ARIS BPA is not really a platform that offers you the opportunity to execute processes that you model.""In terms of improvement, the app could use some small details and functionalities.""Since ARIS 9.X was released, the product has not been as robust and responsive as the previous versions​.""The reporting and the information query features could do with some improvement.""While the dashboarding solution for integrating all kinds of process-related information from company sources other than ARIS is getting ever better, my personal wish would be to have a module that is more targeted to an Agile implementation of some modeled processes (model–to-execute)."

More ARIS BPA Cons →

"We are struggling a bit with integrations.""There is a considerable learning curve.""The dashboard has limited features.""It is missing some important features that other products have.""I should be able to park the tasks that are within a process in a kind of container, and dynamically, a super admin should be able to connect these processes. This kind of feature might be helpful.""Automation in vacation of a human resources replacement would be a good improvement in the product.""The main issue with Bonita is that the workspace crashes sometimes.""It would be nice to have a wizard to help walk through the development process and create a backbone."

More Bonita Cons →

"The maintenance aspect is too heavy."
