Excellent task manager software - supports both management and workflow
Excellent task manager software - supports both management and workflow. Time tracking is available and much used in our firm. Integration with Microsoft Outlook is also a great feature, along with the ability to access from mobile. Being able to use Comindware Tracker for common processes or standalone tasks for crucial in our decision to test the software. The software is flexible and computer-novice friendly, making training required minimal and efficient to implement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution has improved the way our organization does training."
"In the end, what stands out to me is the ease of using the cloud. I don't see any distinct or unique advantages in business process modeling software compared to other application software. The cloud simplifies operations and removes many operational complexities, which is a significant benefit."
"The cloud version has the advantage that you can work on it from anywhere."
"It's very easy to collaborate with. It's very user-friendly"
"It has proved that it also works in complex circumstances."
"ARIS has proved that it works also in complex circumstances."
"Aris Connect opens collaboration opportunities between team members within the organization where they can actually submit change requests, navigate processes, and offer comments. It opens up the potential for BPM within the organization. I didn't see such an angle of a BPM portal with any other products. So I would say that's the best selling feature."
"The solution's most valuable feature stems from its being very easy to use, making it a very user-friendly tool."
"Overall, this is an excellent workflow management tool."
"The ability to access Comindware Tracker from mobile has been greatly valuable to our organization. We are often out of office and this can create timeframe and task management issues. Being able to access tasks and time tracking while on the move is a great asset."
"Comindware Tracker took us from a blind email to fully-transparent automated workflow with travel management and reporting, and improved efficiency, as well as making continuous workflow improvement possible."
"I love this software because this software helps me to increase team productivity day-by-day.​"
"It is perhaps the most user-friendly web forms automation software. At least, I did not find anything better while testing several others similar to it."
"Our purchasing team's efficiency and the productivity of our operations team have improved since implementing this solution."
"The configurable dashboard analytics and reporting capabilities ensure timely decision making."
"This software makes it so easy and enjoyable to work with the team. Any user can learn and start using the application quickly."
 

Cons

"Initial setup is rather complex. You have to find a way to isolate the complexity, and find common ground."
"It seems that there could be innovations in fostering spontaneous cooperation between departments and individuals. This extends to case management and finding new paradigms for enhancing such cooperation. While some approaches, like basic case management tools, have been tried in the past, they may not have met expectations entirely. However, ongoing efforts in administrative science are focused on these areas. Companies with innovative ideas can contribute to progress, possibly involving concepts related to trust, even within the context of web 3. There are intriguing developments in how economic and business organizations can be formed. When it comes to learning about these concepts, starting with simple examples and gradually moving to more complex ones is advisable. Begin with the basics, excluding unnecessary details that might hinder understanding. Over time, you can delve into more intricate aspects, such as Bitcoin and the Lightning Network, to gain a deeper understanding of these technologies."
"It would be very helpful if this solution were more open and could integrate with other solutions like ServiceNow."
"I would like to see more support for architectural diagrams."
"The stability was poor, with frequent outages."
"The price of ARIS Cloud is relatively high and not every firm can afford it, especially if the company is not mature enough to require such extensive process modeling and optimization."
"On the other hand, ARIS' flexibility and power add a certain complexity. If ARIS could be more streamlined, I think customers would have a better handle on what to do with it in the end."
"ARIS' flexibility and power add a certain complexity. And if ARIS could be more streamlined, I think customers would have a better handle on what to do with it in the end. So if you're not a tech geek, you might struggle to understand what you should do with it as a customer because it's that powerful."
"I would like them to offer a one-time payment plan that one can choose."
"The UX/UI could be reviewed and revamped to meet new the criteria of Digitalization and Innovation."
"I would like them to offer a one-time payment plan that one can choose."
"The UX/UI could be reviewed and revamped to meet new the criteria of digitalization and innovation."
"I am expecting new updates to improve the software."
"Figuring out how to integrate defined teams or groups into this system is difficult, and there are no contextual menus."
"The initial setup seemed a bit complex, and there is no great documentation."
"We are using the backdated version of this software. That is why we lack of some features. I hope when we update the version, then all the problems will be solved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing model of ARIS Cloud is leaner and more beneficial to the customer. The new license model is great. With the on-premise, you needed to subscribe to many more types of licenses. Now there are licensed bundles available on the cloud."
"There is a student version of this solution that can be used for free."
"The cloud deployment is not more expensive. In the cloud, you pay for what you use, and there's no need for maintaining infrastructure or additional personnel, making it cost-effective. On-premises deployment, on the other hand, involves infrastructure costs and maintenance expenses."
"The price is so reasonable."
"I benefit from this software by getting a variety of reporting options and features for a relatively low cost"
"Great value for the money."
"The pricing and licensing is as per market standards, except that the process of extending licenses is also easy."
"Setup cost is reasonable and average on the market. They offer simple licensing and price per user."
"This solution has a very lost cost."
"Price per user works for me when they do not count my clients, which fill forms."
