Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"One of the things that I have found most valuable is that it is very easy to use. For example, they have built-in existing processes that you can easily modify."

"All in all, Signavio usability is excellent. Anyone can learn to use the tool quickly. This increases acceptance as employees are not facing a high learning curve. With the offered usability it is easy to model processes also live in workshops.""The features I find most valuable are ease of use and the Collaboration Hub.""The collaboration hub is good because it allows us to share the models that we've captured and to get comments back, and we don't all have to be in the same room, it can be remote and over time.""I use SAP Signavio Process Manager to model processes to the former operating model.""It's easy and fast. It's very quick to work with process teams in terms of improving processes. You just have to send them a URL and to have a process in front of them. I don't use all of the possibilities we have in Signavio. This has made it easier for people to adopt, because when we scrambled the process team together and started a process of improvement, it improved their process. They are much more involved than they had been earlier, and they can also use Signavio to make smaller improvements in the process for themselves. There are many more interactions between the process teams and Signavio than in our previous solution, where you had to hire in a professional process modeler. It's been a great improvement.""One of the most valuable features is ease of use which has really been a good thing to put into the business. People like tools that they can just pick up and use straight-away.""We can use workflow manager to create forms.""The GUI is very easy to use, where you can sit together with your colleagues, discuss the process, and during these discussions you can build up the model."

Cons
"At the moment there are very few people who can lead training for the product. I think that area needs to improve."

More BusinessGenetics xBML Cons →

"There is room for improvement in the reporting function. At the moment, for example, while it is possible to report on how many users you had in the last month, you can't use it to tell you how many users you had from the first week to the second week. This is really a drawback because when you have an activity to promote Signavio or BPI, it would be good to be able to measure how many people you had in the system.""Two executives cannot work on one modeling process simultaneously.""I would like to see more predictive analytics. The tool already has all the process maps, but it could offer a more proactive improvement offering. For example, they could put a little bit more machine learning behind it.""I would like to be able to link a single word within a textual description directly to the glossary.""There could be something more on the reporting side of it for the processes you have captured or processes that might be work in progress to see where to target your effort because you don't always have lots of resources to spare""It is not easy to learn the product.""Its reporting feature could have customization options.""We would like a better way to give users the correct permissions for processes, whether to view or design."

  • "My client purchased one editor license and the collaboration hub, which covers up to a hundred people."

  • "I think we're spending about $150,000 a year on licensing costs."
  • "SaaS has no setup cost, just licensing fees."
  • "This solution provides really great value for the money."
