Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Visualizes processes which helps the business see pain points.""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.""ARIS Reporting – Helps download valuable content from the tool in multiple formats.""ARIS BPA is customizable as per specific business requirements.""The solution has come up with a web portal that makes it easy to model and show to clients.""The technical support is good.""There is a module designer, that one is very powerful and it creates very good reports.""The stability of the ARIS BPM platform is quite good. The nice thing about it is the central database, where we can use all of our data. We can even manage users."

Cons
"​The usability. Others tools are easier to manage without same complexity that ARIS has.​""Needs flexibility in automation of the modeling processes and real-time analysis of data, not just a static view.​""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.""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.""End-to-end visibility and real-time are areas that will need greater attention.""Migration to the next release is very tricky. You can't do it without support from ARIS or from a software kit. And it takes a lot of time and a lot of money to migrate. My impression is that a lot of companies do not migrate regularly because of that issue.""They should make improvements as per customer requirements.""Simulation is one area that is a bit complex."
