Transforming banking process documentation with effective collaboration tools

The free trial needs to have more options for end users, such as including Process Intelligence as a trial version. Although mentioned on the website, the governance feature is not available in the free trial. More guidance from support is also needed, as users can get lost on the website when looking for specific features.

It is overly complicated. It tends to get more engagement from people across the business.

Capturing business processes so they can be used as an operating manual for the business or a quality management system I have used it with clients. It helps them find information when they need to know how to do their jobs effectively. The process mapping approach is ideal for understanding how…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution is innovative and simple to use."

"This product has helped us to work within standards for process planning."

"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."

"I love the collaboration function, especially the option to invite people who don't have any users on the licenses."

"It is a scalable solution."

"The fact that the repository is available on the web is the most valuable feature. It's a very simple tool. If you can use something simple and visual, you should be able to use the model as well in Signavio. It has the ability, for example, to track versioning control, so if you make updates to the processes, you have the ability to track the versions as well."

"In my opinion, the most valuable feature is the editor and its ease of use, and when people are looking at it, they can make comments about changes that need to be made."

"As a business transformation suite, Signavio offers a number of integrated helpful tools. The Process Modeler helps with the conceptual work, but is directly integrated with the components of the Workflow Accelerator (Automation) and the Process Intelligence (Mining). This makes Signavio an indispensable service package."

"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

"It's very user-orientated, which is why I gave it a high rating, even if it is not perfect in every corner."

"Typically, a business process management suite would cover the whole lifecycle, from discovery to optimization and operations. This is running on the process server and providing some kind of low-code environment for developing business solutions. I think the latter part is missing, where SAP Connector comes in. Specifically, the execution of processes is missing, where you would design forms to take orders. This is typically part of some development environment for the process server to run processes from out of the models."

"There are a few bugs when you use the Microsoft Surface Hub with the big screen."

"One of the most important points in Signavio that would be a great change would be the management of variants of the process."

"It could use a better user interface, one that is more efficient."

"I would like to be able to link a single word within a textual description directly to the glossary."

"Part of the product that I think can improve is document control. That's currently not even possible. To work with documents we have something of a workaround using SharePoint."

"The collaboration and commenting are great. However, I think it would be more useful for people to get notifications of comments straight-away so we can react even quicker to them than we already can."

More SAP Signavio Process Manager 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 customer Journey Modeler is more than twice the price of Process Manager, which is a lot."

"The solution is quite expensive compared to other vendors."

"I think that the price of the licenses is between $2,000 USD and $3,000 USD per license per year, plus the hub usage. I cannot remember the exact cost, but it is affordable."

"Lower than the competition with highly flexible licensing plans."

"SaaS has no setup cost, just licensing fees."

"SAP is always more expensive. The per-user cost is hard to calculate and forecast for a big company."

"I rate the tool's pricing a nine out of ten."

"Comparatively, it is a bit costly when you look at similar tools with similar features."
