Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Camunda, Sparx Systems and others in Business Process Design."The most valuable features of ARIS BPA are the centralized repository and the automatic rendering of diagrams."
"One of the many advantages of ARIS is that it is supported by a very strong BPM community, which is critical for us. Although it has been in business for many years, it is still at an early stage of evolution. There are so many instances where your specific use case or requirement for using ARIS hasn't necessarily been matured across the sector. So, you need access to a very active community to help you explore possible solutions and ways in which ARIS can be used to achieve those use cases."
"Aris BPA has a lot of tools that are more professional than Bizagi."
"There is a module designer, that one is very powerful and it creates very good reports."
"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."
"Features like SAP SolMan sync, Alfabet EA integration (another Software AG product)."
"Fully-reportable database over Visio."
"ARIS BPA provides very good visibility and control of processes because we have a concurrent license system. As a result, every person in our company and group is able to look at the published processes."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"The product is really good, and it is easy to use. It comes with multiple integrations. The solution keeps up with the trend of Microsoft Copilot and AI."
"What I find most valuable in Kofax TotalAgility is its OCR feature. I also find its workflow and business process management capabilities valuable. Kofax TotalAgility also has good integration with other solutions and has an API call feature."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
"Essentially, Kofax TotalAgility as a whole is quite nice. As of now, we've only been able to use and explore its document classification and extraction capabilities. We haven't explored and used the case management capability yet, but the scan and capture capabilities we've been using heavily and those are quite good. Our solutions are mainly around those areas of Kofax TotalAgility. We haven't explored the product a lot, but the capabilities we've explored are good."
"It's not so complex to design what you need to."
"It is user-friendly and has good documentation. It's good for developing communication and has a lot of the APIs needed for this purpose. There aren't a lot of software options available from this time period; this is the only one from 2013 that has this concept of microservices."
"Data extraction and auto-classification are great features."
"The user experience's usability (in general) should be improved as the tool is updated."
"ARIS BPA is not really a platform that offers you the opportunity to execute processes that you model."
"The tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond."
"I use it strictly for developing the business process model. I don't use it for the actual automation. I do that with Vtenext. I have standardized on Vtenext, and I don't use ARIS BPM anymore. The Vtenext UI is just as good, and it is much more tightly coupled to the underlying object model. I can get more done in one session with Vtenext rather than first going to ARIS BPM, then importing, and having to edit it for tight coupling."
"Newer versions (9.x) are technically more difficult to maintain."
"Create simple data uploader."
"Integration with third-party tools should be improved (e.g. based on APIs)."
"The pricing of the solution can be improved and the initial setup should be made easy."
"The one thing I would like to see more of right now: is a simplified form creation. That would be the most significant improvement I would like to see in their product."
"They provide sufficient but not excellent technical support. Perhaps there is a point where they could use some improvement."
"Table line item extraction is not possible through Quick Capture."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"TotalAgility needs to improve communication with ECMs or other file storage systems because TotalAgility does not have file storage. A good improvement would be to create file storage or integrate with other file storage tools that are currently available."
"Lacks sufficient inbuilt features."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
"Sometimes there isn't enough accuracy when it comes to extracts."
