We performed a comparison between Apache Airflow, ARIS BPA, and WorkflowGen based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."Since it's widely adopted by the community, Apache Airflow is a user-friendly solution."
"Designing processes and workflows is easier, and it assists in coordinating all of the different processes."
"Since the solution is programmatic, it allows users to define pipelines in code rather than drag and drop."
"Since Apache works very well on Python, we can manage everything and create pipelines there."
"The product is stable."
"One of its most valuable features is the graphical user interface, providing a visual representation of the pipeline status, successes, failures, and informative developer messages."
"The most valuable feature of Apache Airflow is creating and scheduling jobs. Additionally, the reattempt at failed jobs is useful."
"The solution is flexible for all programming languages for all frameworks."
"The tool has good navigation."
"The simulation engine and SAP integration are technically very robust."
"The EPC modeling is very detailed, the semantic check is helpful, and auto-layout simplifies the formatting."
"The capability to integrate all information of the business and to generate simulations of processes. It can analyze the model of operations quickly."
"The technical support is good."
"Business Process Analysis: We can simulate, optimize, and analyse business processes based on various business requirements. It assures our rolling out the best processes."
"The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting."
"Process Modeling or Process Mapping/Documentation. This is the most comprehensive tool for capturing the process details. Any organization who wants to embark on a BPM journey, process mapping/documentation, lays the foundation for the BPM led implementation."
"We use it a lot for creating workflows to transfer materials between plants, which is a signature part of what we do."
"UI can be improved with additional user-friendly features for non-programmers and for fewer coding practitioner requirements."
"There is a need for more features on experimental evolution steps."
"For admins, there should be improved logging capabilities because Apache Airflow does have logging, but it's limited to some database data."
"The solution could be improved by simplifying the integration process."
"Apache Airflow should have better integration with cloud platforms."
"The scalability of the solution itself is not as we expected. Being on the cloud, it should be easy to scale, however, it's not."
"Adding more automated components in Apache Airflow for basic things like exporting the data would be helpful."
"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."
"The tool must provide more documents."
"Displaying role allocation matrix models in ARIS Connect needs improvement."
"End-to-end visibility and real-time are areas that will need greater attention."
"The interface is a little archaic."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and better designed."
"One of the biggest challenges is to realistically enable the defined structures of the processes that you have in ARIS documented, and then actually implement them in the business."
"Its governance tool and integration with ESB and execution engine can be improved. Their partner support can also be improved."
"With ARIS BPM, the script creation is quite cumbersome. With version ten, we needed our developers to do scripting."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
