Has improved process modeling and analysis while supporting integration with organizational data
The process design in ARIS BPA does help with our operational efficiency. What we are doing is object library management for various kinds of objects that we are using in ARIS BPA during our process modeling. We are using that to do a lot of analysis on how many times a system is being used in how many processes, who are the major stakeholders, and if we enhance one system, how is it going to impact other processes and integrated processes. This is helping us a lot. Everything related to ARIS BPA is helping us with regards to enhanced processes, strengthened controls, identifying risks, assessing process capabilities, and identifying where the gaps are and what kinds of activities within the processes are automated and manual. We are doing a lot of things with regards to the processes as it is at our heart. Processes are one thing and then we have different kinds of things which are related to it, such as SLAs, guidelines, and policy. We are identifying areas of improvement in other documents as well.

Enabled us to consolidate workflows and reduce time spent searching for transactions
We have consolidated the workflow and have certain elements and functionalities developed in the new system so that my agents who are using the application don't have to do manual tasks searching for mail. So, we've consolidated and arranged some alerts and have done some segregation. The user is benefited, and the time spent on searching a transaction is reduced.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"ARIS is very user-friendly compared to other BPM tools that I have used."
"This solution has helped us in terms of discovering business processes."
"The simulation engine and SAP integration are technically very robust when you consider my segments of expertise (health care, financial, and automotive)."
"Overall BPM modeling functionality is very good."
"The ability to sort via multiple criteria to identify the relationships you need for a specific object."
"you want to do modeling with the old notation form, ours was EPC, you can use the same object in the BPMN because the database is built in a way that you can use both things. So you only have to define it once, and if the notation form is BPMN and those kind of activities, you can use the same EPCs, so there is a connection between them."
"It brings transparency and 360-degree views of end-to-end processes."
"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."
"The most valuable feature for us is the Omnicon. That made sense for us because our company is now able to capture information from documents."
"Newgen will structure the system based on all the requirements of the business. We can design the forms as complex forms or make our own versions to fix what's wrong."
"We have consolidated the workflow and have certain elements and functionalities developed in the new system so that my agents who are using the application don't have to do manual tasks searching for mail."
"The UI is easy. It's not very code based, so you can make certain changes on your end."
"The integration capabilities of Newgen OmniFlow are excellent due to its ready APIs, enabling easy API creation for consumption across different systems."
"This solution is very cost effective and very flexible."
"Good for static workflows, and the customer support team is proactive and accommodating."
"We have a huge customer satisfaction rate because we try to accommodate all the requirements of their business."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the reporting aspects improved."
"It takes a long time for a new user to start working with ARIS, so perhaps it could be more user-friendly in terms of the complicated construction conventions that it uses."
"I find it difficult to access the database as I want with direct querying."
"With ARIS BPM, the script creation is quite cumbersome; with version ten, the typed ones were quite extensive where we needed our developers to do scripting."
"The workflow approval process could be represented better in the overviews."
"Displaying role allocation matrix models in ARIS Connect needs improvement."
"There are some things in the collaboration module that could be improved a little, such as the functionality which dynamically pushes notifications to interested people when a process changes during the Release Cycle Management workflow."
"Their license model is really difficult to understand, and licenses are quite expensive."
"At the system level, I would like to see things be much more flexible, especially for different document templates and introducing changes."
"The technical support is not very good. They have a very late response and do not have enough expertise on the support team."
"Improvement is needed in supporting the partner ecosystem."
"There should be some reporting and dashboarding capabilities. I don't see such capabilities built into it."
"We had consistent issues of Newgen OmniFlow crashing. It's not compatible with bounce browsers like Chrome."
"From what I have seen so far, this system is too hardcoded and inflexible."
"In terms of stability, like every product, it has its issues."
"The development teams should be more agile and they need to have more team members."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You will never get a fixed price for this product because they will go in and ask you what kind of environment would you like to set up? How many people will you work with? How big is your organization? Today, they have a fixed price to say, "Okay, just to start the business area, buy two licenses for modeling and eight people that can look into the product." They have this kind of fixed price. It's 50,000 Danish Krone. If you divided that by about six, then you get the pricing in dollars. Still, when you are going out, negotiate and find the right price. You will never get a fixed price: "It costs this and, if you take ten of these, seven of these and eight of these, and then it costs this." No, you negotiate every time."
"The price could be better."
"Their license model is really difficult to understand, and licenses are quite expensive."
"Negotiate. Price is high so make sure you’re getting the best deal."
"Prices are high. However, they are worth it if the organization utilizes the tool to its full potential."
"It depends on different parameters."
"We have a concurrent license system."
"From my point of view, no, it is not cheap, but it is not too expensive because you get this big organization behind it, technical support, and all those things. It's not so expensive to use. It's a Rolls Royce in this field, I know that. Even for small organizations, they can get so much effect from using this tool, in a very fast way, so the money will be back in the customer's pocket very fast."
"Its price is a bit on the high side, but that's okay. From a company perspective, it is reasonable."
"The on-prem solution is affordable. The cloud solution is more expensive. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"Overall, this solution is very cost effective when compared to other solutions in the market."
"The price of Newgen OmniFlow is priced reasonably."
