"An advantage is its accessibility."
"I find the IT portfolio management very valuable and helpful."
"What's most valuable in MEGA HOPEX is that it follows the reference model where each component is defined. I also like the diagram consistency in MEGA HOPEX."
"The tool is very simple and intuitive to use."
"The solution itself was easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reuse of common enterprise components and entities."
"You do not need to be a professional of enterprise modeling to contribute to the enrichment and improvement of the enterprise repository."
"One of the things that I like is the automation from external data."
"Visio makes it easy to communicate your ideas from several areas of your imagination across several domains."
"The Data Objects are hyperlinked to the Standard Operating Procedures, Letters, and Forms."
"The most valuable feature is that it is integrated with other tools in the Microsoft Office suite, as well as at the backend with products like SharePoint and Microsoft Teams."
"Architecture modeling software with satisfactory standard features. It's also stable and effective in facilitating communication with others."
"I like all the features. I go online, and everything pops there. It is in the cloud, and everything is there. Even if there is a crash, everything is still there. I don't lose anything. That's what is the most valuable and likable. It is really a professional solution for designing. The designs look really nice in the PDF."
"The most valuable feature of Visio is diagram creation. If you have a presentation, you can create your data model using Visio."
"The primary functionality revolves around the creation of flow diagrams and diverse Building Information Modeling (BIM) using contemporary and pre-established notations. In my perspective, these ready-made notations prove highly beneficial. Despite being a compact tool, it is effective for tasks such as drawing organizational charts, making it a straightforward and uncomplicated tool."
"Needs a friendlier import/export to other modeling tools."
"It takes a long time to learn how to use HOPEX. It's hard to work with it because the user interface is bad. For example, if you want to build a complex system diagram, you need a lot of knowledge to do this correctly and make it readable. In MEGA, you need to create a report and it takes a long time to publish it. The publishing is offline. With RDoC, everything is online."
"MEGA HOPEX can improve process simulation in the BPA module. If the solution was better we would not have to use another solution for this purpose. Simulating scenarios in the future for the to-be processes is in demand. If we can have the simulation engine built inside MEGA HOPEX, we would not have to purchase another license or solution to integrate them with each other. This would be a great improvement."
"It would be great if this solution could integrate with other tools such as ITSM (ServiceNow) or CMDB."
"They do tend to push people to their professional services, instead of helping the customers with their problems. I understand this is their business. At the same time, however, they need to work on fact sheets or offer some program to help the customers who want to implement it themselves and to make it run properly in their environment."
"Scalability can be a problem sometimes."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"The solution lacks additional models compared to other tools."
"The design and the look and feel, need to be improved."
"Something that needs to improve, is the interface interaction with other tools."
"The price could be better."
"Visio is not as scalable as other tools due to the proprietary restriction. You cannot customize it or scale it up like the way you do with Trello or Jira. Microsoft places restrictions on things that you can do with Visio."
"It does not integrate well with other solutions."
"In terms of features, it could provide more automation to display data flowing through architecture."
"When you use a BPA solution you can open an end-to-end process in one window, go down, or go up between layers to different places. You should be able to see descriptions of the steps of the process."
"It's a very large install that uses many gigabytes."
