We performed a comparison between ARIS BPA and Oracle BPM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Business Process Management (BPM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Process Modeling or Process Mapping/Documentation. This is the most comprehensive tool for capturing the process details. Any organization who wants to embark on a BPM journey, process mapping/documentation, lays the foundation for the BPM led implementation."
"If you ever tried to draw a picture in a browser app or with a cloud service, it is normally a painful death. ARIS works perfectly on diagrams in the browser, so I was excited. I like it because there have been so many bad experiences in the past with drawing or doing something in a browser. Normally, it's always painful because it's coded badly. With ARIS, it is really well-implemented. It's simple."
"The most valuable features of ARIS BPA are the centralized repository and the automatic rendering of diagrams."
"This solution has helped us in terms of discovering business processes."
"The ability to sort via multiple criteria to identify the relationships you need for a specific object."
"The solution provides integrations to ServiceNow and other systems, flexibility of connectivity, and reporting."
"The capability to integrate all information of the business and to generate simulations of processes. It can analyze the model of operations quickly."
"The tool defines the processes. It's the documentation of everything."
"The support is good."
"We selected this solution not only for the BPM but for the entire package."
"We have more than 800 distinct applications in our IT landscape. We had enough scalability and okay development cycles, and it has been enough to cover our backup operations and order management systems."
"The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"The solution provides extensive functionalities."
"This solution has given us a quick time to market, the ability to integrate with the rest of the corporate applications, and the ability to hire talent in low-cost locations."
"One of the most valuable features is its user-friendly API, which simplifies the implementation of workflows, such as managing inbox tasks for specific users within BPM profiles."
"The areas of ARIS where we see room for improvement are actually related to the background services that support it. Over the last number of years, Software AG has moved from an on-premises solution into deploying a SaaS solution to their enterprise base. That has been really successful from my point of view, as I have been a customer of ARIS, managing the relationship, for a couple years. Certain support functions around the knowledge base, customer service, and the cross and upselling of modules within the core ARIS component are lagging behind the SaaS movement."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and better designed."
"Regarding stability, when there are any customized settings being done at customer end - post upgrade to newer versions - it makes the customer environment unstable for a short duration."
"The tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond."
"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."
"While the dashboarding solution for integrating all kinds of process-related information from company sources other than ARIS is getting ever better, my personal wish would be to have a module that is more targeted to an Agile implementation of some modeled processes (model–to-execute)."
"ARIS needs to make a better user interface. The user interface sucks. The problem with ARIS is that they have two interfaces for the same product."
"Needs flexibility in automation of the modeling processes and real-time analysis of data, not just a static view."
"The product must reduce its cost."
"Their Case Management set of features is severely lacking and should be a target for immediate improvement dealing with unpredictable processes inside of organizations."
"Every time we roll out a new version of processes, we have to migrate to a new process. The process of this migration was not very smooth. We later decided that it would be easier for us to stop all processes, deploy a new version and then restart."
"The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems."
"Pricing is an area that could use improvement."
"Overall, the engine and the UI both have to be made lighter."
"Though Oracle BPM is a stable solution, it's very heavy, so this is one area for improvement. If Oracle can make the components of Oracle BPM lighter, and if the deployment for the solution could be easier, that would make Oracle BPM better."
"It would be good if they could provide some additional connectors or an application developer environment for microservices."
