We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It brings transparency and 360-degree views of end-to-end processes.""Objects can be reused across different BPMNs and processes, so we can design new processes quicker and easier.​""The ease of use is the most valuable. I have tried a number of BPMN packages, and I find the user interface of ARIS BPM easier and more intuitive than others. If your team is knowledgeable on BPMN, it is really pretty easy to figure out on your own because it adheres to the standards extremely well. I have tried Bizagi, BizFlow, and a variety of such solutions, and I just liked ARIS BPM better.""The most valuable features of ARIS BPA are the centralized repository and the automatic rendering of diagrams.""MFT is quite attractive. A large amount of data is passed in almost no time and it is quite easy to use.""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.""It has allowed us to model our enterprise process architecture.""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."

"I would like to see the reporting aspects improved.""There is not enough documentation provided for the tool's support or administration.​""ARIS BPA’s usability could be improved.""We should have the ability to download ARIS EPCs to Visio.""With ARIS BPM, the script creation is quite cumbersome. With version ten, we needed our developers to do scripting.""Displaying role allocation matrix models in ARIS Connect needs improvement.""ARIS needs to make a better user interface. The user interface sucks. The problem with ARIS is that they have two interfaces for the same product.""Create simple data uploader."
