Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most important feature is ARIS's ability to turn a process design into data to analyze anything you want. For example, we have some analysis reports in ARIS that can guide us when we want to change a system. It shows us how this change will affect all of the organization's processes.""One of the most valuable features is how user-friendly ARIS is, compared to other BPM tools. This tool has very diverse types of assets available. ARIS also has a lot of customizable options, different model types, object types, a number of attributes, and a lot of customization is possible. In comparison, Signavio is very limited in terms of model types and object types. So these customizations ARIS offers are really valuable to any client who wants to create a BPM repository.""The user interface is easy to work with.""It's really fast. It's much faster compared to Enterprise Architect.""We use the product for modeling, conducting process checks, doing process flow, running, and analyzing the report.""The support team is very responsive."

"Provides a valuable BPMN feature.""This product fulfills ninety percent of our needs, and we're happy as users of it.""We found the technical support to be helpful.""Simulation is most valuable.""Web diagramming and RACI have helped expedite the process, capture, and ownership initiatives of our organization.""Another good feature is that the numbering of the shapes in iGrafx is much easier and more convenient, in comparison to what is found in Visio. So far I haven't found anything similar to what I have with iGrafx, in that regard.""The solution's technical support is of good quality since they offer fast and seamless services.""Finding the right symbol and creating links, horizontal and vertical are the features I use."

Cons
"The support team takes a long time to respond to our queries.""This product could be improved by lowering the licensing cost. More organizations could use ARIS if they slashed the licensing costs even a little bit.""The simulation part still has some way to go. It's a good feature, and it's something that other vendors don't have right now, but it can still be improved. Some features are needed in ARIS Architect, so advanced users can do things through drag-and-drop functionality.""You can have a collaboration feature, but it's necessary to have ARIS Connect which is a separate, costly product.""The product is not flexible.""We face problems when the product's capacity is increased."

More ARIS Architect and Designer Cons →

"The solution could benefit from improvements to its interface. More specifically, when compared to other tools, the process modeling features lack symbols or object types that are used to represent the information or data within the process.""It would be helpful to be able to do more analytics and generate reports on historical documents that have already been uploaded to the server.""The price could be more competitive.""I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping.""With iGrafx, the implementation and the licensing were pretty complex.""It can be more user-friendly.""Dragging and dropping shapes is not as user-friendly as in Visio. In Visio, it's very easy to work with shapes and in very few minutes you can plot a whole, multi swim-lane, cross-functional process.""It would be nice to have a Spanish user interface available to us."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The licenses are very costly. I've seen many people who are hesitant or not able to use ARIS Suite just because of the license cost. Even though they like all the functionalities and understand the value of everything ARIS provides, they aren't able to implement it."
  • "Many customers find the licensing configuration confusing. There are many different sub-details in the licensing, making it very difficult for us to understand what we are buying and what we are using with what."
  • "The product is expensive."
  • "The tool is a little bit expensive."
  • More ARIS Architect and Designer Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
  • "Our license is a subscription-based model that is per user. The solution is not expensive, I believe a subscription-based model is $10 per user."
  • "The licensing part is one of the problems. Its licensing depends on the number of users, so it sometimes gets expensive."
