Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"​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 EPC modeling is very detailed, the semantic check is helpful, and auto-layout simplifies the formatting.""In general, the users really like it and they can get started using it very easily.""Also, the UML parts have been improved very much in the last two years. And it's very powerful now to combine the BPMN and UML parts in the product, because you can make a connection between them, so that you have the right interoperability between them. So if you're doing data modeling, you can use your class diagram and bind that to the BPMN part.""You can relate different aspects of an organization to each other, and you can clearly define the rates seen in the application.""Platform that it supports covers legacy and new. Caters to moving older objects into an integrated DB, relatively popular ones: SQL, Oracle, etc.""The initial setup and installation are very straightforward.""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."

"​Processes become clearer, easier to understand, and easier to spot in development areas.""It makes communication easier due to transparency on processes."

More QPR ProcessDesigner Pros →

"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."

More TIBCO Nimbus Control Pros →

Cons
"The tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond.""There is a lot of room for improvement. They need to increase the performance of the system flow. They need to support it more. ARIS Process Governance is still quite basic, and they are using an old BPM and process automation module.""There are some things in the collaboration module that could be improved a little, such as the functionality which dynamically pushes notifications to interested people when a process changes during the Release Cycle Management workflow.""Regarding stability, when there are any customized settings being done at customer end - post upgrade to newer versions - it makes the customer environment unstable for a short duration.""​Training is one of the important aspects for process awareness. As soon as a process is rolled out, process training is required. If ARIS could generate output in PowerPoint, it would be great for business users.""In terms of improvement, the app could use some small details and functionalities.""Sometimes, ARIS BPA breaks down, and its stability can be improved.""ARIS needs to make a better user interface. The user interface sucks. The problem with ARIS is that they have two interfaces for the same product."

More ARIS BPA Cons →

"There is definitely a need to produce models in XML. There is already something available, but it seems that transferring between the different modelling tools is difficult."

More QPR ProcessDesigner Cons →

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

More TIBCO Nimbus Control Cons →
