"What stands out are the speed of the product, the quick, easy development, and visual diagramming."
"The solution's most valuable features are the regular periodic and quarterly updates, they are very useful updates. They keep improving the solution more often, and that helps the platform or code always be up to date with the latest features."
"Appian also has very flexible local integration."
"The tech support is quite good."
"We use the portfolio management feature heavily."
"The support experience in Latin America is great."
"HOPEX has a panel that offers various views. I think that is very good. MEGA has an app for integrating with a lot of apps. We help our clients integrate HOPEX with a different product like Apple Gateway, for example. I've been with the company for 15 years, and we connect with everything. Our clientele includes almost all of the banks in Mexico."
"The tool is very simple and intuitive to use."
"The most valuable feature is that the software controls everything from a single management window."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reuse of common enterprise components and entities."

"The platform is stable."
"We'd like improved functionality for testing new devices."
"We would like to have more granular control for interface styling."
"While Appian is generally flexible, it's rigid in some ways. It takes longer to do something that isn't available out of the box."
"The graphical user interface could be easier to use. It should be simplified."
"The product’s pricing could be improved from the developers' perspective."
"Appian could include other applications that we could reuse for other customers, CRM for example."
"We have clients that want to use Office 365, Microsoft Analytics, and Power Apps. Appian just isn't the same as using something specifically designed to cater to the Microsoft Suite."
"Something I would like to see improved is an SQL database connection."
"Standardization is lacking. The Operational Risk Function will be more effective if it at a default level follows established Basel standards for Loss categorization, Risk Assessments, Risk Event categorization, etc."
"MEGA HOPEX's initial setup could be easier. The newer version is better but they still need to improve the process. The deployment took approximately four to eight hours."
"The solution lacks additional models compared to other tools."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"In my experience, I've encountered difficulties with consuming custom packages in MEGA HOPEX, which leads to redundant work when deploying them to production. This is an area where improvement is needed. While version six offers better UI and UX, resolving this issue should be a priority. I believe it's important to fully explore MEGA HOPEX's capabilities before suggesting new ones."
"Needs a friendlier import/export to other modeling tools."
"It takes a long time to learn how to use HOPEX. It's hard to work with it because the user interface is bad. For example, if you want to build a complex system diagram, you need a lot of knowledge to do this correctly and make it readable. In MEGA, you need to create a report and it takes a long time to publish it. The publishing is offline. With RDoC, everything is online."
"An area for improvement in MEGA HOPEX is its vast learning curve. The tool is also heavy, so that's a pain point. MEGA HOPEX is also tricky to use if you don't train for many hours."
