Targeted stakeholder views have improved decision making and reduced architecture costs
BiZZdesign HoriZZon offers various valuable features. The best ones, besides those I have mentioned, include the AI space with the Diagram Describer and the Explorer functionality. I understand that BiZZdesign HoriZZon is also working on the Diagram Importer, which complements the Diagram Describer feature, providing full import and export functionality. Together with the contributor role and targeted stakeholder management, these features are essential. BiZZdesign HoriZZon introduced the Dynamic Solution Intent, enhancing the solution architecture by engaging diverse stakeholders with architectural artifacts. It supports the development of holistic solutions using reusable repository components. The deployment is hybrid cloud-based, specifically using Amazon Web Services as the cloud provider. I have also seen the implementation of return on investment features that contribute significantly to the organization’s overall effectiveness.

Pros

"The positive impact that BiZZdesign HoriZZon has created for my organization is putting all the architecture details in one place and also providing the view according to the user type."
"BiZZdesign HoriZZon has positively impacted our organization by providing a combination of dependency visibility, impact analysis, and stakeholder-friendly visualization, which differentiates it from maintaining architecture information in spreadsheets or static diagrams."
"It is very easy to use. I can just click on an application component and find out if we are using this particular component. This provides us flexibility."
"We can derive some meaningful insights from whatever data that we have, which is the main thing."
"The most valuable features are the application, portfolio, data, architectures, and modeling things."
"BiZZdesign HoriZZon's visualization techniques help my clients make data-driven decisions."
"t's a good tool. My colleagues that are making use of it for application, business processes, or data modeling, are very satisfied with it. They find it easy to use. The graphical representation is simple but therefore efficient, so I know that they are planning a very good commencement on the use of these tools."
"The most valuable feature is that it allows you to work with different methods, using the same tool."
"It’s easier, more controlled and automatized checks of the budget through this system."

Cons

"BiZZdesign HoriZZon's technical support has presented challenges, as extra fees are required and the process is not straightforward."
"In HoriZZon, there are different matrices. In some of the cases, there is an option to aggregate them, but in other cases, we have not done this, e.g., to see the proper costs. For example, if I have 10 different matrices, then I need to create an aggregate view out of those 10 matrices somewhere. That is where we have been struggling a bit. We have a counterpart from the HoriZZon product team with whom we have bi-weekly discussions. We have suggested to him that this can be improved."
"The ability to generate charts and deal with a use case involving Kibana was quite difficult."
"There could be simpler modelling."
"The automatic data collection and interface need improvement."
"Customer support for BiZZdesign HoriZZon could be better. On a 1 to 5 scale, I would rate it a 3.5."
"While it is not the fastest in terms of performance, it is workable and requires reasonable patience."
"I do not recommend using BiZZdesign."
"Yes, for email notification but it could also be with company network."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
"The reports for users. The reports with more details; we have to generate them by the database."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of this particular product usage, my clients currently only use per-user licenses."
"We were customers and bought licenses from them. We used their remote instance initially but upgraded to the on-device version due to lag. For pricing, we paid about 2200 pounds a year per seat for the client installation at an educational rate. I'm not sure about commercial rates. I managed to get a free copy at BBC since it was for evaluation purposes."
"First and foremost within the scope of improvement for the solution would be the cost. It's very costly..."
"If one is very cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the product price as a seven out of ten."
"I haven't found any issues with the scalability and licensing parts that are access-related."
"[The] Orbus... pricing model was based on every single functionality having a price. The pricing was comparable but if we wanted to scale, it would have ended up being a lot more expensive. BiZZdesign gave us one price with all of the functionality, and we could scale as much as we needed."
"The price is reasonable."
"The pricing model is slightly on the high side and could be more competitive for long-term partnerships."
