Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"ARIS BPA provides very good visibility and control of processes because we have a concurrent license system. As a result, every person in our company and group is able to look at the published processes.""Collaboration and governance over enterprise artifacts.""The ease of use is the most valuable. I have tried a number of BPMN packages, and I find the user interface of ARIS BPM easier and more intuitive than others. If your team is knowledgeable on BPMN, it is really pretty easy to figure out on your own because it adheres to the standards extremely well. I have tried Bizagi, BizFlow, and a variety of such solutions, and I just liked ARIS BPM better.""The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting.""The solution is user-friendly and easy to expose.""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.""It helps the business make an informed decision.""Object oriented modeling allows us to trace what's going on with the specified object."

"The most valuable features are that it's very secure and provides audit trails for our documents.""The solution is very developed and we are not taking full advantage of its functionalities.""We found the setup process to be okay since they do offer a troubleshooting guide.""I like the cloud and its integrability.""OnBase is a remarkable tool. It is a well-done product. Hyland has a lot of experience in building it and looking for new things for clients in terms of functionalities. It has amazing stability, and it can grow horizontally and vertically. It is built for growth. Their technical support is also quite good and available throughout the year.""The retention module is one of the most valuable features. Whatever we scan onto the system can be identified and we are notified when the records are due to be disposed."

Cons
"The governance mechanism could be better, as could automation.""The workflow approval process could be represented better in the overviews.""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 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.""The user experience's usability (in general) should be improved as the tool is updated.""Areas for improvement include sales, prospecting, shopping, customer service, after-sales (claims and advice for the client), and all processes pertaining to customer loyalty.""There should be a more intuitive tool when creating reports.""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."

More ARIS BPA Cons →

"The dashboards do have some room for improvement as compared to the other vendors which are there in the market.""The look and feel could be better. The integration with the user could be better. It could also be more user-friendly.""We need to troubleshoot why our reports didn't get downloaded in a day. There is a workflow feature which powerful but also complicated.""For user experience, they would have to do more with the interface. It is not easy to work with and is a little messy. It is getting better, but it is not yet good enough. Other products are comparatively doing better in terms of the user interface. I have been hearing about Box, which is very easy to use and learn for the users. OnBase has to work on this aspect. It should have BPM capabilities. We compete with tools that provide the BPM feature and support those standards. They can do better in terms of the pricing model. It is a really expensive tool in Latin America. They should have different prices for different regions.""We are struggling with duplicates and would like to have OCR functionality when using this solution.""An area for improvement would be the training - getting our people up to speed on how to use it required more training than we expected due to the complexity of the solution."
