Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS)."Security, quick deployment, and scalability are the top three features for me."
"AWS has a lot of flexibility, which is great."
"This solution offers a very detailed dashboard that has some metrics, such as performance and budget."
"Some of the introduced one-year and three-year reservations helped us reduce costs early on. With time, we learned how to minimize our at REST capacity, allowing us to scale up and scale down in near seconds."
"The product is easy to use."
"It's easy to manage. We can use a wide range of technologies with AWS."
"I like the technical support."
"User friendly solution."
"From a total cost of ownership perspective, running this on the cloud is more efficient than having someone in the company take care of the infrastructure."
"It's very easy to collaborate with. It's very user-friendly"
"The most valuable feature is GUI; it is very intuitive and easy to use."
"In terms of UX design, somebody who has not had experience with ARIS will be able to use it very easily."
"It has proved that it also works in complex circumstances."
"In the end, what stands out to me is the ease of using the cloud. I don't see any distinct or unique advantages in business process modeling software compared to other application software. The cloud simplifies operations and removes many operational complexities, which is a significant benefit."
"In terms of using the cloud version, if you're somebody who, like myself, has got a lot of experience and understands measures and notations and things, basically it's unrestricted. You can do so many things. You can do your Archimaze, you can do BPMN. There's lots of stuff you can do in there and if you're a good field person and you cause yourself re-using things or whatever, then it's very nice, it's very easy to use."
"This solution has improved the way our organization does training."
"The technical support can take longer than expected sometimes. They could improve on this."
"They should really consolidate and make things simpler rather than offer you hundreds of random options. The way everything is arranged really forces users to figure out everything on their own and then, on top of that, to calculate the total costs. There's an infinite number of combinations even just with cost calculations. It's just too much."
"It's a good cloud, however, if I compare it with Azure, Azure is more of a feature-rich cloud."
"In a future release, I would like to see more support for AI because it is the future."
"As far as the automation is concerned, the backups should be scaled."
"The product would be better if it was more secure."
"They're really good on the business computing side, but there are other services where they can do really well. They can improve the data analytics platform and the data warehousing platform."
"Their support can be improved. In some cases, their support is not as proficient as it can be. They should be quicker at getting back."
"It would be very helpful if this solution were more open and could integrate with other solutions like ServiceNow."
"On an enterprise level, the ability to onboard somebody quickly is cumbersome because it just has too many things in it. It's got something like a hundred or more techniques and things in it."
"The price is quite high. This is one weak point of the solution."
"If you have multiple tiers of approvals into that update of the policy, or the process design itself, it takes ages to prepare those internal flows within the system."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"ARIS' flexibility and power add a certain complexity. And if ARIS could be more streamlined, I think customers would have a better handle on what to do with it in the end. So if you're not a tech geek, you might struggle to understand what you should do with it as a customer because it's that powerful."
"The trial version of this solution does not give you enough time to learn how to use it, so it should be extended to one year."
"Initial setup is rather complex. You have to find a way to isolate the complexity, and find common ground."
