Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Ability to use all the features that your catalog has inside the modeling and export it to a BPM augmentation engine.""Using this solution we can design our own processor governance, assign some specific technical services, and also run tests of the process to make sure it operates as we need it to.""It's a very easy-to-use product."

More ARIS Process Governance Pros →

"SAP Signavio Process Manager is very responsive.""This solution is innovative and simple to use.""The most valuable feature for me is the collaboration point of view, where everybody has a single view, or source of truth, and everybody sees the same thing. Everyone can comment, contribute, and discuss the processes itself, which makes it easier to funnel down the most value adding comments and make the relevant changes to the processes. This leads to the next best iteration or version of your process.""The GUI is very easy to use, where you can sit together with your colleagues, discuss the process, and during these discussions you can build up the model.""Process Manager is really helpful in building process maps. Creating them is really easy; the program is user-friendly.""It's way of handling is really an advantage. It's quite easy to use, without too much training . That's the main point for me.""Version management is helpful because I like to try different versions and then decide which of them should be the main model.""The ability to leave comments in the Collaboration Hub is a good and easy way for the employees to give feedback on the processes."

Cons
"There is a lot of complexity around licensing.""The solution uses a coding language for process design that is specific only to this product. We would like to see this changed to something more universal.""It's a bit annoying that you have to use two environments in the older version."

More ARIS Process Governance Cons →

"The reporting is too slow and there is a limit of 250 processes.""The workflow automation of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The tool's navigation could be improved.""For me, given I've got a lot of experience working with BPMN and other process management tools, in terms of the interface, I think there's a little bit more that can be improved to match what the conventional BPMN offers. I've been constantly trying to give this feedback to Signavio, to let them know that it needs to be more coherent with the original BPMN version of the stencil.""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 is room for improvement in the reporting function. At the moment, for example, while it is possible to report on how many users you had in the last month, you can't use it to tell you how many users you had from the first week to the second week. This is really a drawback because when you have an activity to promote Signavio or BPI, it would be good to be able to measure how many people you had in the system.""We would like a better way to give users the correct permissions for processes, whether to view or design.""There is a need for more varied access packages. The access packages that I have used are not cheap enough. They also provide a complete set of tools that are not always used. Sometimes, you need more segregated things, e.g., Signavio includes functionality for a company that has not yet matured. Since there are no basic packages, the company must pay for a package that is not fully used. Typically, process management is started in a company of a certain maturity."
