We performed a comparison between Apache Airflow, ARIS BPA, and IBM Case Foundation based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."Apache Airflow is in Python language, making it easy to use and learn."
"Apache Airflow is easy to use and can monitor task execution easily. For instance, when performing setup tasks, you can conveniently view the logs without delving into the job details."
"This is a simple tool to automate using Python."
"Every feature in Apache Airflow is valuable. The number of operators and features I've used are mainly related to connectivity services and integrated services because I primarily work with GCP."
"Since Apache works very well on Python, we can manage everything and create pipelines there."
"The initial setup was straightforward and it does not take long to complete."
"The solution's UI allows me to collect all the information and see the code lines."
"The best part of Airflow is its direct support for Python, especially because Python is so important for data science, engineering, and design. This makes the programmatic aspect of our work easy for us, and it means we can automate a lot."
"In addition to our applications, we have also stored, in ARIS, the footprint of where those applications have been implemented. That means we know in which country a given application has been implemented. With embedded geolocation, we have a very visual world map, where we can see the footprint of each application."
"The solution provides integrations to ServiceNow and other systems, flexibility of connectivity, and reporting."
"MFT is quite attractive. A large amount of data is passed in almost no time and it is quite easy to use."
"It helps to maintain a single source of truth regarding the processes followed within an organization."
"ARIS is probably the most mature product in terms of modeling an enterprise architecture so that it has context."
"The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting."
"Visualizes processes which helps the business see pain points."
"you want to do modeling with the old notation form, ours was EPC, you can use the same object in the BPMN because the database is built in a way that you can use both things. So you only have to define it once, and if the notation form is BPMN and those kind of activities, you can use the same EPCs, so there is a connection between them."
"Flexible and the ability to divide search screens, and to search for documents. The ECM feature inside the system is great."
"It is easy to set up workflows that notify the user depending on certain events."
"The client and the IBM content navigation are the solution's most valuable features."
"The most valuable features are those involving decision making, analysis, and anything related to event documents because those processes are related to content as well."
"The solution is scalable."
"The content management is great."
"The most valuable feature is the content manager part of the file as it is very stable, robust, and reliable."
"It's very easy."
"The graphical user interface can be improved."
"Adding more automated components in Apache Airflow for basic things like exporting the data would be helpful."
"The dashboard is connected into the BPM flow that could be improved."
"I would like to see some no-code capabilities and drag and drop abilities in Airflow."
"The documentation must be improved."
"We're currently using version 1.10, but I understand that there's a lot of improvements in version 2. In the earlier version that we're using, we sometimes have problems with maintenance complexity. Actually using Airflow is okay, but maintaining it has been difficult."
"UI can be improved with additional user-friendly features for non-programmers and for fewer coding practitioner requirements."
"Apache Airflow could be improved with the addition of more frameworks."
"The solution is difficult and not very exciting to learn."
"Integration with third-party tools should be improved (e.g. based on APIs)."
"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."
"Areas for improvement include sales, prospecting, shopping, customer service, after-sales (claims and advice for the client), and all processes pertaining to customer loyalty."
"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."
"Since this is a design tool, seamless interface to make the process flows executable."
"The tool must provide more documents."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and better designed."
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"There is a need for more open and flexible integration capabilities, allowing seamless collaboration with a broader spectrum of business process management solutions, beyond the confines of IBM's document management offerings."
"The service as it currently stands is out-of-date and lacks flexibility."
"90% of the feedback we receive states that the UI is not very user-friendly."
"The cloud version could use more stability."
"We are now using microservices but there are some areas where the coordination with FileNet is problematic."
"The solution can be quite expensive."
"There are some features that could be enhanced like the document viewer"
