Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Camunda, Software AG and others in Business Process Design."The stability of the ARIS BPM platform is quite good. The nice thing about it is the central database, where we can use all of our data. We can even manage users."
"The simulation engine and SAP integration are technically very robust."
"The technical support is good."
"It is a well-featured, functional product."
"ARIS Reporting – Helps download valuable content from the tool in multiple formats."
"I am impressed with the tool's integration. It also facilitates collaboration in the organization."
"The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting."
"The solution is user-friendly and easy to expose."
"One of the things that I have found most valuable is that it is very easy to use. For example, they have built-in existing processes that you can easily modify."
"The pricing of the solution can be improved and the initial setup should be made easy."
"The reporting capabilities and the ability to create custom reports need to be simplified and made easy so that people even with a good functional understanding of the tool can leverage it to create their own custom report."
"If you want to create new reports then you have to use JavaScript, or ARIS script as they call it, which is beyond the competencies of most people."
"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."
"I had this decentralization mission where I had some friendly fights with the consultants of Software AG. My opinion was the business department should be able to publish their processes and do all their evaluation stuff in ARCM themselves. It has to be a one stop shop. I want a one stop shop to go from ARIS BPM to ARIS ARCM, because having everything go through that would be an improvement due to the inputs that we made with Software AG. They will make it possible that the trigger sent from BPM to ARCM will start their object generation."
"I use it strictly for developing the business process model. I don't use it for the actual automation. I do that with Vtenext. I have standardized on Vtenext, and I don't use ARIS BPM anymore. The Vtenext UI is just as good, and it is much more tightly coupled to the underlying object model. I can get more done in one session with Vtenext rather than first going to ARIS BPM, then importing, and having to edit it for tight coupling."
"ARIS has an internal fully customizable workflow system called APG, which is very good, but it’s targeted mostly at creating workflows related to ARIS content, and not general workflows to support other processes inside a company."
"The interface is a little archaic."
"At the moment there are very few people who can lead training for the product. I think that area needs to improve."
