"The support experience in Latin America is great."
"Its availability is very good."
"This is a complete package with all of the functionality that we need."
"What I find the most valuable is the process workflow. It is really good."
"We have many use cases for this solution but the feature I have found most valuable is the IT Portfolio Management module."
"Every module sets up the same information in a unique repository."
"HOPEX has a panel that offers various views. I think that is very good. MEGA has an app for integrating with a lot of apps. We help our clients integrate HOPEX with a different product like Apple Gateway, for example. I've been with the company for 15 years, and we connect with everything. Our clientele includes almost all of the banks in Mexico."
"The most valuable parts of this solution are the richness of its features and its easy interface."
"It offers a lot of features in one solution. You would have to get multiple other products to bundle together all of the capabilities that you get in just this product."
"It's a great tool for documentation."
"Very good repository features."
"I like the connectivity or the lineage between the models and usability."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"SAP PowerDesigner is fairly stable."
"The most valuable feature is that it is a very fast reverse engineering process. It does a very expansive comparison."
"The most valuable feature of SAP PowerDesigner is the testing of the models, it has the best function. Reverse engineering is very helpful too."
"The initial setup can be quite complex at first."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"It would be great if this solution could integrate with other tools such as ITSM (ServiceNow) or CMDB."
"Lacking more out of the box integrations."
"MEGA HOPEX's problem is that it is expensive, but it's a fantastic tool."
"We have a very close relationship with MEGA representatives in Mexico, and we ask them why they don't offer impact analysis. For example, we have a server in the center and provide the client a view of what's in the peripheral area, like one cluster, application, process area, and services. We want to offer our clients that level of visibility with HOPEX."
"This product is expensive and would be improved by lowering its price."
"Better documentation and training would be helpful."
"Technical support could be better and more human."
"In terms of improvement, the pricing is a bit high."
"Connectivity can be improved because it's not very good."
"I have found the solution not easy to use. When publishing you have to download the HTML, make adjustments against the updated HTML, convert it to HTML, then finally paste the HTML. There is not an on-the-fly function available to bypass the step-by-step converting process that other solutions have."
"There are many areas of this solution that needs to be changed."
"The solution is very, very expensive. It would be ideal if it was a more affordable product."
"UI could be improved by enabling simpler navigation."
"The solution itself does not need to be improved. However, they could add support for different languages."
