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

It helps us learn how to think and how to plan for our system.""ARIS provides the basic foundation for any digital transformation an organization decides to take.""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.""Business Process Analysis: We can simulate, optimize, and analyse business processes based on various business requirements. It assures our rolling out the best processes.""The most valuable features of ARIS BPA are the centralized repository and the automatic rendering of diagrams.""The most valuable feature in the latest versions is the connect portal, where you can do very simple modeling using the web-based portal.""In general, the users really like it and they can get started using it very easily.""The tool has good navigation."

"The fact that it allows for the internal sharing of information is very good.""The most valuable features are collaboration, traceability, retention of documents, and search.""In terms of its most valuable features, this solution, in general, will provide all you need and it's very convenient to use.

Cons
"The user experience's usability (in general) should be improved as the tool is updated.""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.""Sometimes, ARIS BPA breaks down, and its stability can be improved.""Newer versions (9.x) are technically more difficult to maintain.""The product is difficult to use for someone without prior knowledge of working with it. It requires a certain level of administration training.""One thing that could be improved is regarding the handling of the content itself. Maybe ARIS could provide a set of best practices, or best processes, so that people do not have to start from scratch.""Some improvements have been done, after Software AG acquired ARIS, but I don't believe it's still integrated with the other tool WebMethods in a perfect way.""There is a lot of room for improvement. They need to increase the performance of the system flow. They need to support it more. ARIS Process Governance is still quite basic, and they are using an old BPM and process automation module."

More ARIS BPA Cons →

"OpenText 360 is generally stable, though there are sometimes issues with document size or format.""Its licensing needs to be simplified. Currently, its licensing is very complex. It contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify the licensing and make it easier to understand. It would make a customer's life easier.""They are not going for any add-ons right now. It's the same version we are still using and there is no plan of upgrading and/or creating any add-ons at all.""The platform's workflows could be more intuitive and easier to use.""We have a very good time to market tool, and the development platform should be made user-friendly. Mostly, it's just support.""If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option.""I would like for there to be even more integrations in the next release and I believe that the price could go down a bit.""An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved."
