Find out in this report how the two Business Process Management (BPM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."ARIS is probably the most mature product in terms of modeling an enterprise architecture so that it has context."
"There is a module designer, that one is very powerful and it creates very good reports."
"MFT is quite attractive. A large amount of data is passed in almost no time and it is quite easy to use."
"Business Process Analysis: We can simulate, optimize, and analyse business processes based on various business requirements. It assures our rolling out the best processes."
"It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature in the latest versions is the connect portal, where you can do very simple modeling using the web-based portal."
"Also, the UML parts have been improved very much in the last two years. And it's very powerful now to combine the BPMN and UML parts in the product, because you can make a connection between them, so that you have the right interoperability between them. So if you're doing data modeling, you can use your class diagram and bind that to the BPMN part."
"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."
"While Pega technical support is okay, it also depends on the issues you need help with and who your contact is with Pega."
"The product helps you to build faster."
"The solution offers excellent workflows."
"The workflows are the most valuable features, particularly for us, because we were attempting to automate processes by utilizing workflows to provide a hands-off comparison between the bot and the human."
"The solution provides us with a very good dashboard."
"Allowed us to develop and quickly release with confidence using cloud technologies."
"The interface is quite simple and easy to use, even for beginners."
"The technical support of Pega BPM is very good."
"In terms of improvement, the app could use some small details and functionalities."
"End-to-end visibility and real-time are areas that will need greater attention."
"The interface is a little archaic."
"One of the issues is, when you are defining databases, the way they use entities and relationship diagrams, the way we can define data, like data models, there is still a part they could improve."
"An area where it lacks and can be considered for improvement in the future is if we can somehow automate or learn how we can automate different processes."
"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."
"One of the biggest challenges is to realistically enable the defined structures of the processes that you have in ARIS documented, and then actually implement them in the business."
"The solution is difficult and not very exciting to learn."
"First-time customers will find its licensing tricky. The technical support team for this solution could be faster in resolving tickets."
"The training aspect of Pega BPM requires significant enhancement. There should be more opportunities for third-party training and engaging events, such as hackathons where individuals can share their expertise. Additionally, the training structure itself should be more organized, as I have received feedback from my colleagues in the COE that the current training approach is overwhelming and requires excessive referencing to obtain accurate information. Another area for improvement would be the user experience with regard to RPA. Simplifying the IDA for citizen developers would make it easier for them to adopt the RPA tool."
"The solution could be more scalable."
"UI needs improvement."
"The local development approach is good in Pega, however, cost-wise, it's getting expensive. That needs to be addressed."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The solution would benefit from more integration capabilities."
"What should be included is some UI features and maybe some integrations. This includes documentation on how the UI works."
