They also have a graphical view, so if you are not a programmer and you are just an administrator, you can easily track everything and see if everything is working or not."
"Designing processes and workflows is easier, and it assists in coordinating all of the different processes."
"The user interface for monitoring and managing workflows has been excellent, particularly in the latest version. c"
"Its user-friendly interface makes it straightforward to operate, offering a plethora of features for data preparation, buffering, and format conversion."
"Since Apache works very well on Python, we can manage everything and create pipelines there."
"I like the UI rework, it's much easier."
"The UI is very simple and easy to learn."
"Apache Airflow's best feature is its flexibility."
"I have done a lot of modeling over quite a number of years, and I think that the modeling capabilities in Signavio are state of the art."
"It's way of handling is really an advantage. It's quite easy to use, without too much training . That's the main point for me."
"The most valuable feature is probably the nature of it."
"The most valuable feature is the glossary. It is really nice because all of the information is centralized, and that is a big help to the company."
"The product's most valuable feature is the transformation process."
"I like the collaboration and the real-time aspects of it."
"The feature that I like the most is the collaboration hub, where every user or every employee can see the process in the overview."
"The GUI is very easy to use, where you can sit together with your colleagues, discuss the process, and during these discussions you can build up the model."
"It would be beneficial to improve the pricing structure."
"The graphical user interface can be improved."
"For admins, there should be improved logging capabilities because Apache Airflow does have logging, but it's limited to some database data."
"Technical support is an area that needs improvement."
"Enhancements become necessary when scaling it up from a few thousand workflows to a more extensive scale of five thousand or ten thousand workflows."
"UI can be improved with additional user-friendly features for non-programmers and for fewer coding practitioner requirements."
"One specific feature that is missing from Airflow is that the steps of your workflow are not pipelined, meaning the stageless steps of any workflow. Not every workflow can be implemented within Airflow."
"Apache Airflow should have better integration with cloud platforms."
"One of the most important points in Signavio that would be a great change would be the management of variants of the process."
"Signavio already offers a wonderful range of functions. If variant management and customer journeys are optimized, Signavio can definitely bask in the glory of BPM tools. We also see optimization potential in the management of licenses, e.g. no named users but rather floating licenses and integration into the company's active directory."
"The price can be made cheaper."
"SAP Signavio Process Manager needs better automatic rendering of data."
"For us, it would help a lot if this solution had floating licenses."
