Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Architecture Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The ease of modeling and the ease of showing interconnectivity and relationships is the most valuable. It is fairly simple and out of the box. It is customizable in many ways. It is a pretty good tool."
"There are a lot of different features, but the business/decision-maker feature, visibility, and dashboards are most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the traceability, you can trace any object to the other."
"If you face new challenges or issues then you can dynamically customize according to the business needs."
"The most valuable feature is that it has a customizable meta-model, which is key."
"The tool's implementation is straightforward as everything is readily available. For instance, setting up a portal is seamless, allowing easy publishing and access to data. However, integrating with other tools like BI, Power BI, or Grafana requires setting up pipelines between them."
"There are plenty of features available such as the ability to test applications for issues and a user-friendly dashboard."
"The product is easy to use and well-structured for the integrations we need it to make."
"The solution has a very useful assessment tool that automatically populates from input data to produce a detailed analysis of customer's environments."
"LeanIX has good usability and stability. This SaaS is intuitive, easy to use, and comes with a nice reporting feature."
"One of the product's most valuable features is its ability to configure hardware devices."
"The ability to import data and generate reports from it. That's where its power lies."
"I like the tool’s integration and maps."
"I like LeanIX's ease of use in general."
"Among the most valuable features are the easy-to-use interface and the ability to get quick results... Many tools that I have seen are great for technical people and for giving technical and business information as well, but they're not as friendly and easy as LeanIX... It works well for both technical and business users. It provides a good combination, enabling you to quickly put valuable information in for both technical and non-technical people and derive results."
"For the reporting capabilities, LeanIX provides dashboards for different levels, including CXO dashboards. There are plenty of dashboards for reporting."
"The most valuable features are the catalog and the diagram."
"It is vastly scalable but you can't run it on a Mac or Linux so it has limitations."
"The company needs to update the UML version they are using for the product as it is quite old."
"The usability of the tool is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."
"If they want to expand in the European market then they are going to have to improve their technical support."
"In the future, there could be improvements in integration and enhancements."
"Their local presence in the Middle East could be scaled more, particularly in customer service. It would be good if they'd also have mobile dashboards for executive management out of the box."
"While this is one of the most powerful tools on the market it does not integrate well with Microsoft Office or others."
"The whole integration architecture view of interfaces/data exchange could be improved."
"They should improve the out of the box connectors that they provide. They should see if clients are really ready to adapt them."
"Another area for improvement is that when you're starting to look into more advanced information, using the solution's APIs and its customizations, documentation for that specific aspect is not very good. There is not too much support built into the offering for that aspect, for a developer."
"They're probably positioned pretty well. I hope that they would not focus that much on the business architecture, and they would focus more on the overall cloud strategy and how we can leverage multi-cloud and transition back and forth from other cloud providers. With a lot of current vendors, you get locked in with one cloud, and then you try to migrate to someone else, and it becomes very problematic. What they need to do is to look at the overall data strategy, and they probably need to amplify their data strategy, especially around multi-cloud."
"Does a poor job of being able to allocate detailed costings to components within the network."
"The solution needs to incorporate a data patch tool that moves within and irons data."
"It's hard to predict the pricing of the system."
"LeanIX has limited in-build diagramming capabilities, requiring the purchase of another tool. That is the main drawback of LeanIX because they don't have a built-in add-on product for diagramming."
