More ADONIS Pros →

"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.""Aris BPA has a lot of tools that are more professional than Bizagi.""​The matrix model makes building relations easier.​""The solution has come up with a web portal that makes it easy to model and show to clients.""Fully-reportable database over Visio.""It provides the discovery functionality, and you can have a simulation on top of it to get your design corrected to ensure that it is within the right state of parameters. It is a complete package that you can use from strategy to execution because you have the design layer, and within the design, you can also do analytics.""​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.​""Business Process Analysis: We can simulate, optimize, and analyse business processes based on various business requirements.

Cons
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS.""There is a function to check if the model BPMN is being used correctly, but the report from the check is not always very clear.""The solution is in English and we have added certain parts in Russian as this is easier for our students. It would be useful to have the system in Russian.""When you update a page, the information on the quick links sidebar on the left side doesn't stay in the same place. It moves down, so you have to scroll to find it. That's not very user-friendly.""We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes.""Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better.""This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."

More ADONIS Cons →

"Create simple data uploader.""There should be a more intuitive tool when creating reports.""It needs external API and the ability to navigate back, similar to "Back" in web browser.""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.""The solution is difficult and not very exciting to learn.""The reporting and the information query features could do with some improvement.""Migration to the next release is very tricky. You can't do it without support from ARIS or from a software kit. And it takes a lot of time and a lot of money to migrate. My impression is that a lot of companies do not migrate regularly because of that issue.""The product is difficult to use for someone without prior knowledge of working with it. It requires a certain level of administration training."
