Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The technical support is good.""BPA, the modeling tool, is the main module used because of our need for documentation.""ARIS BPA has a good directory option, which helps to keep track of all of your metadata, and that's very useful.""The most valuable features of ARIS BPA are the centralized repository and the automatic rendering of diagrams.""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.""In general, the users really like it and they can get started using it very easily.""It has helped me get some ideas across more clearly to my colleagues.​""The ability to sort via multiple criteria to identify the relationships you need for a specific object."

"The OAuth feature is the most valuable feature for authentication.""The interface is really good.""The interface has a great look and feel, and the functionality is so easy.""The application integration will give you more flexibility when dealing with APIs."

Cons
"Simulation is one area that is a bit complex.""User interface (UI).""Displaying role allocation matrix models in ARIS Connect needs improvement.""The user interface could be more intuitive and better designed.""The tool must provide more documents.""ARIS BPA’s usability could be improved.""I had this decentralization mission where I had some friendly fights with the consultants of Software AG. My opinion was the business department should be able to publish their processes and do all their evaluation stuff in ARCM themselves. It has to be a one stop shop. I want a one stop shop to go from ARIS BPM to ARIS ARCM, because having everything go through that would be an improvement due to the inputs that we made with Software AG. They will make it possible that the trigger sent from BPM to ARCM will start their object generation.""The ​integration between ARIS, webMethods, and project versions needs improvement.​"

"There's no direct way to connect to Amazon APIs from Informatica Cloud.""The pricing model is problematic.""The setup is complex.""There could be a lot more application integration."
