"ARIS is probably the most mature product in terms of modeling an enterprise architecture so that it has context."
"you want to do modeling with the old notation form, ours was EPC, you can use the same object in the BPMN because the database is built in a way that you can use both things. So you only have to define it once, and if the notation form is BPMN and those kind of activities, you can use the same EPCs, so there is a connection between them."
"The tool defines the processes. It's the documentation of everything."
"ARIS has a good collaboration function. You create a portal where any authorized users can work on the models. There are simple flows for making and approving changes."
"I am impressed with the tool's integration. It also facilitates collaboration in the organization."
"It provides the discovery functionality, and you can have a simulation on top of it to get your design corrected to ensure that it is within the right state of parameters. It is a complete package that you can use from strategy to execution because you have the design layer, and within the design, you can also do analytics."
"The most valuable feature is the process documentation. For us, ARIS is a lifestyle more than a tool. It helps us learn how to think and how to plan for our system."
"Processes become clearer, easier to understand, and easier to spot in development areas."
"It makes communication easier due to transparency on processes."
"Some improvements have been done, after Software AG acquired ARIS, but I don't believe it's still integrated with the other tool WebMethods in a perfect way."
"The Risk and Compliance Management tool is rather complex and moreover, it needs to be customized if you want to use it."
"In terms of improvement, the app could use some small details and functionalities."
"We should have the ability to download ARIS EPCs to Visio."
"The user experience's usability (in general) should be improved as the tool is updated."
"With ARIS BPM, the script creation is quite cumbersome. With version ten, we needed our developers to do scripting."
"There should be a more intuitive tool when creating reports."
"The product is difficult to use for someone without prior knowledge of working with it. It requires a certain level of administration training."
"There is definitely a need to produce models in XML. There is already something available, but it seems that transferring between the different modelling tools is difficult."
