I can usually find an answer to my issue on ARIS Community
From the start, there were some difficulties on how to create outputs since there wasn't a repository tool in version 6. However, in version 7, there has been a tool for creating standards for a company, and that tool has been very intuitive. While I have been using this tool for several years, other people just starting to use it find the learning curve steep. This tool is very robust and accommodates many roles, where people can participate from compliance, IT designers, etc. This can create problems for users who have no experience with similar tools. It took me a year before I felt comfortable with this tool, because when I came from university it was the first or second tool that I worked on. It took me a year to run every feature or use it for every possibility since this tool is very robust. We sometimes have to create the link to the server and the repository twice because it is deleted once for some unknown reason. Though, this is not a big problem. There should be a more intuitive tool when creating reports.

It is a very stable and scalable product without downtime.
I suggest that before you purchase a solution, you understand their business well, and before selecting a supplier to understand what they are targeting. Too many companies go into this with complex procedures and processes,not understanding it and trying to model it as it goes. So, in the end, they end up with a solution that it is not what they aimed for in the beginning.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"​​ARIS process modeling and analysis allows integration of end-to-end business processes with the organization's vision, strategies, and business objectives, through visual management."
"The ease of use is the most valuable. I have tried a number of BPMN packages, and I find the user interface of ARIS BPM easier and more intuitive than others. If your team is knowledgeable on BPMN, it is really pretty easy to figure out on your own because it adheres to the standards extremely well. I have tried Bizagi, BizFlow, and a variety of such solutions, and I just liked ARIS BPM better."
"Aris BPA has a lot of tools that are more professional than Bizagi."
"ARIS has a good collaboration function. You create a portal where any authorized users can work on the models. There are simple flows for making and approving changes."
"You can relate different aspects of an organization to each other, and you can clearly define the rates seen in the application."
"Platform that it supports covers legacy and new. Caters to moving older objects into an integrated DB, relatively popular ones: SQL, Oracle, etc."
"It brings transparency and 360-degree views of end-to-end processes."
"In addition to our applications, we have also stored, in ARIS, the footprint of where those applications have been implemented. That means we know in which country a given application has been implemented. With embedded geolocation, we have a very visual world map, where we can see the footprint of each application."
"The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good."
"It is very stable. There is no downtime."
 

Cons

"I would like the possibility to use real data. In other words, it can use this system to integrate with others that are operating directing with users like clients, employs, and others."
"The product is difficult to use for someone without prior knowledge of working with it. It requires a certain level of administration training."
"Making it more customizable and easy to learn would be a benefit."
"There should be a more intuitive tool when creating reports."
"Simulation is one area that is a bit complex."
"The reporting and the information query features could do with some improvement."
"The reporting capabilities and the ability to create custom reports need to be simplified and made easy so that people even with a good functional understanding of the tool can leverage it to create their own custom report."
"Displaying role allocation matrix models in ARIS Connect needs improvement."
"The setup and configuration is complex."
"The design of the interface, in general, could be improved. It could be a bit more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a concurrent license system."
"The product is expensive."
"ARIS Express​ is free."
"In terms of pricing, it would be nice if it were more affordable."
"The setup cost and pricing depend on the license (Modeler, Viewer, Administrator)."
"ARIS has different licensing mechanisms for different modules, but they are perpetual licenses. So you pay once."
"​It is on the higher side."
"If you can afford it, it's the best so far."
