Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Camunda, Sparx Systems and others in Business Process Design."Object oriented modeling allows us to trace what's going on with the specified object."
"The EPC modeling is very detailed, the semantic check is helpful, and auto-layout simplifies the formatting."
"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."
"ARIS provides the basic foundation for any digital transformation an organization decides to take."
"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."
"The solution provides integrations to ServiceNow and other systems, flexibility of connectivity, and reporting."
"It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Aris BPA has a lot of tools that are more professional than Bizagi."
"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."
"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."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a great design tool for reading handwritten invoices."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"Kofax TotalAgility is a single package. They provide you with OCR capabilities, BPM capabilities, and case manager features."
"Great with recognition providing a high level of confidence."
"Now it has an OCR, optical character recognition, engine where it can extract data from the document."
"The interface is a little archaic."
"ARIS has an internal fully customizable workflow system called APG, which is very good, but it’s targeted mostly at creating workflows related to ARIS content, and not general workflows to support other processes inside a company."
"If you want to create new reports then you have to use JavaScript, or ARIS script as they call it, which is beyond the competencies of most people."
"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."
"Sometimes, ARIS BPA breaks down, and its stability can be improved."
"The tool's installation and configuration part needs to improve."
"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 tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond."
"The product's console version is old. It should also improve its forum."
"Kofax should improve its handwritten extractions."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
"Kofax TotalAgility could improve the OTR engine. The page OTR engine is not accurate in predicting the data properly. If you provide many features which are good for business process management without an accurate OTR engine people will not want it."
"It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things. You will definitely still need to customize."
"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."
"Kofax needs to improve the low-code or citizen developers."
"Sometimes there isn't enough accuracy when it comes to extracts."
