We performed a comparison between Sparx Pro Cloud Server and Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 solution's most valuable feature is ArchiMate which I use daily."
"We have found the technical support to be helpful."
"The company has become more efficient and reduced its budget."
"Its traversability is most valuable. I can use ArchiMate, and I can create a UML model. ArchiMate is for logical enterprise architecture, UML is for software engineering, and BPMN is for business processes. I can build it to have multiple models, and they are also traversable, which is not something that every tool allows. If there is a huge organization, you can segment it and have separate models for business technology or internal resource management system. You don't need to keep them in one model, and you can decide to segregate them."
"The profiles and ready-made templates are an extremely helpful feature. This is one of the biggest features that I find very useful in Sparx."
"It is an EA tool that is approved by Open Group. It is in the tool register of Open Group."
"It provides good utilization and it's a convenient tool for building exact architectural work."
"We could capture the process models around 24 countries with all their local variations."
"Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect supports multiple modeling languages like ArchiMate for database design, software lifecycle visualization, and team management."
"It's a stable and scalable solution. I like that it's similar to Rational Rose."
"The user-friendliness could be even better."
"The solution should allow easier access with enhanced customization options for web page DHTML."
"Not visually appealing."
"The presentation graphics need to be improved in future builds."
"When collaborating with other people, it needs to be more user-friendly."
"I would like the system to more "intellectually" build a scheme, place icons, and connect lines on the schemes."
"It could be more user-friendly. The tools could be more simple to use. It's a very complex solution. Because I am a business analyst, I use these tools to manage requirements, and I make models in UML, BPMN, and ArchiMate, and it's complex. In the next release, I would like to see more integrations."
"Sparx can be a bit slow. If you are trying to design software architecture, sometimes we run into issues and need to refresh."
"The UI could be improved and made a little bit more presentable."
"This solution should have better ease of use for the uninitiated."
