We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution's basic features are easy to use, overall designed well, and it has good process mining analysis.""​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.​""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.""Features like SAP SolMan sync, Alfabet EA integration (another Software AG product).""The whole ARIS BPM solution is a bit special, because from the very beginning it was targeted more to Business users and the Management.""There is a really powerful reporting API that allows you to create almost any kind of report you want out of your process and document repository.""It has helped me get some ideas across more clearly to my colleagues.​""ARIS BPA is customizable as per specific business requirements."

"The fact that you can see and create something that fits your business is the most valuable thing in this platform. It is a customizable product, so it fits your needs.""The product has a strong and easy integration with Teams.""The most valuable features are collaboration, traceability, retention of documents, and search.""In terms of its most valuable features, this solution, in general, will provide all you need and it's very convenient to use. We can share our details to collaborative platforms. We can give access to users. It's pretty flexible.""OpenText 360's best features are platform independence and its performance when searching large numbers of documents.""It has a lot of flexibility, and Microsoft does come up with some new additions from time to time.""This solution has good connection and we do not need to migrate everything in order to protect the repository.""The most valuable feature of OpenText 360 for SharePoint is its performance.

Cons
"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).""The Risk and Compliance Management tool is rather complex and moreover, it needs to be customized if you want to use it.""The reporting capabilities and the ability to create custom reports need to be simplified and made easy so that people even with a good functional understanding of the tool can leverage it to create their own custom report.""Its governance tool and integration with ESB and execution engine can be improved. Their partner support can also be improved.""The governance mechanism could be better, as could automation.""I believe the solutions BPM tools are not very good and need improvements.""Newer versions (9.x) are technically more difficult to maintain.""The tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond."

More ARIS BPA Cons →

"The platform's workflows could be more intuitive and easier to use.""OpenText 360 is generally stable, though there are sometimes issues with document size or format.""An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved.""Its licensing needs to be simplified. Currently, its licensing is very complex. It contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify the licensing and make it easier to understand. It would make a customer's life easier.""If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option.""They need to come with more out of the box solutions, rather than depending on customers to develop them.""They are not going for any add-ons right now. It's the same version we are still using and there is no plan of upgrading and/or creating any add-ons at all.""I would like for there to be even more integrations in the next release and I believe that the price could go down a bit."
