Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ability to sort via multiple criteria to identify the relationships you need for a specific object.""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.""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.""It has allowed us to model our enterprise process architecture.""The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting.""You can relate different aspects of an organization to each other, and you can clearly define the rates seen in the application.""Objects can be reused across different BPMNs and processes, so we can design new processes quicker and easier.​""The most valuable feature in the latest versions is the connect portal, where you can do very simple modeling using the web-based portal."

"It tends to get more engagement from people across the business.""It helps clients find information when they need to know how to do their jobs effectively."

Cons
"The tool must provide more documents.""Displaying role allocation matrix models in ARIS Connect needs improvement.""Migration to the next release is very tricky. You can't do it without support from ARIS or from a software kit. And it takes a lot of time and a lot of money to migrate. My impression is that a lot of companies do not migrate regularly because of that issue.""I had this decentralization mission where I had some friendly fights with the consultants of Software AG. My opinion was the business department should be able to publish their processes and do all their evaluation stuff in ARCM themselves. It has to be a one stop shop. I want a one stop shop to go from ARIS BPM to ARIS ARCM, because having everything go through that would be an improvement due to the inputs that we made with Software AG. They will make it possible that the trigger sent from BPM to ARCM will start their object generation.""I had a hard time with ARIS's access and licensing policy. It requires you to pay for each step you want to take forward with the solution.""The product is difficult to use for someone without prior knowledge of working with it. It requires a certain level of administration training.""The governance mechanism could be better, as could automation.""The user interface could be more intuitive and better designed."

"This product could probably do with less features rather than more. It is overly complicated. In recent releases, it has become harder to use."
