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

More iServer pros

"It helps clients find information when they need to know how to do their jobs effectively."

"It tends to get more engagement from people across the business."

Cons

"We could allocate permissions to use only specific components to the users rather than the entire instance."

"The performance is slow, which is something that should be improved."

"There can be some performance issues using the solution that should be improved. When you make modifications modify to files there are embedded data within that can take a while to process."

"There are other solutions out there that have a better user interface."

"It definitely needs help to improve the visual aspect of the solution."

"The modelling needs improvement, specifically forecasting capabilities and scenarios."

"There could be features for process mining, process simulation, and analytics."

"It runs relatively slowly."

More iServer cons

"This product could probably do with less features rather than more. It is overly complicated. In recent releases, it has become harder to use."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has a moderate pricing."

"The price of iServer is reasonable compared to other solutions."

"It's about 13K to set up and 9K for the license for three months. I think it's about 20K a year, but we haven't firmed up on pricing yet because the price depends on how long we commit to the solution."

"The solution is cheaper than its competitors."

"Aim for the exact number of people who shall define/review approve and view the processes, as it will impact the cost."

"They offer annual subscriptions for developing countries, which are not affordable for small or medium businesses."
