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."The simulation engine and SAP integration are technically very robust."
"The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting."
"Objects can be reused across different BPMNs and processes, so we can design new processes quicker and easier."
"The whole ARIS BPM solution is a bit special, because from the very beginning it was targeted more to Business users and the Management."
"The BPMN notation and the share flow through users. It is nice to see all flows in a common, shared space for all the stakeholders to view the same thing and the same language."
"The most valuable feature in the latest versions is the connect portal, where you can do very simple modeling using the web-based portal."
"The stability of the ARIS BPM platform is quite good. The nice thing about it is the central database, where we can use all of our data. We can even manage users."
"It is a well-featured, functional product."
"The case management functionality of this solution has been most valuable."
"Application development is very rapid. A lot of code gets reused while building the applications, which is something we highly appreciate."
"This is a customizable product."
"The solution is operating well overall."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Overall, the ability to integrate with multiple applications and effective case management is the most valuable."
"Pricing is a little on the high side."
"The robotic process automation has increased the confidence of business users."
"The standard out-of-the-box solutions for modeling are not so good. You have to do some configuration to make it easier and more user-friendly."
"The integration between ARIS, webMethods, and project versions needs improvement."
"Integration with third-party tools should be improved (e.g. based on APIs)."
"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)."
"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."
"It needs external API and the ability to navigate back, similar to "Back" in web browser."
"There are reports available in ARIS and you can modify them a bit if you want something more specific, but it's not that easy to adjust them and make modifications. It would be nice to have some kind of tool to do that, something that is more user-friendly for people who are not too technical, so that they could create reports the way they want them."
"The governance mechanism could be better, as could automation."
"The biggest thing I have seen is when going from one version to another and upgrading to the latest version, it takes a pretty long time for an organization to go through an upgrade process. I think that's an area where they can make it a little smoother."
"I believe that Pega's strategy when it comes to the UX part is not that great currently as compared to the other emerging BPM tools in the market."
"Pega's technical support could be better."
"There are some UX shortcomings within the solution. However, it's my understanding that they have addressed them and in the next three months they will come out with a new updated version. They will be moving away from HTML5."
"UI needs improvement."
"They need to support the solution better, at this time the company does not have enough support."
"It's called a local platform but on the other hand, it needs a lot of experience. It's not all that easy to click and plug and play. If you really want to use all the features out of this platform, you definitely need a lot of experience and a lot of training to get there."
"It is not fully compatible with all versions of Internet Explorer, so sometimes, it does not work."
