Find out in this report how the two Business Process Management (BPM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The tool has good navigation."
"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 feature is the process documentation. For us, ARIS is a lifestyle more than a tool. It helps us learn how to think and how to plan for our system."
"We also have relationships specified with our IT systems and our organizational chart. That makes it possible to analyze things from the systems point of view and regarding the organizational part of the company. It all comes together in one tool and that is what gives us the most value at the moment."
"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."
"Also, the UML parts have been improved very much in the last two years. And it's very powerful now to combine the BPMN and UML parts in the product, because you can make a connection between them, so that you have the right interoperability between them. So if you're doing data modeling, you can use your class diagram and bind that to the BPMN part."
"Features like SAP SolMan sync, Alfabet EA integration (another Software AG product)."
"I am impressed with the tool's integration. It also facilitates collaboration in the organization."
"I think the initial setup is fine."
"This tool is really helpful in reducing a lot of manual work. Its drag and drop components help to create a workflow faster than SharePoint Workflow Designer."
"Allows to use workflow for simple approvals and LazyApproval. The feature is easy to implement for mobile approval."
"It has helped us a lot, especially during the initial phase of a project where most of the things are done on paper."
"The solution helped us automate several processes we used to do manually."
"Allows us to provide desktop/laptop and mobile solutions to our users."
"The Vizio-style designer that runs in the browser is, to me, by far the most valuable feature of the solution. It means that the customer doesn’t have to install any client tools to create powerful workflows."
"NWC forms could be better. Also, the ability to build workflows that are not dependent on SharePoint is very desirable. The forms feature just isn’t as functional as the forms for SharePoint."
"The solution is difficult and not very exciting to learn."
"I would like the possibility to use real data. In other words, it can use this system to integrate with others that are operating directing with users like clients, employs, and others."
"One of the issues is, when you are defining databases, the way they use entities and relationship diagrams, the way we can define data, like data models, there is still a part they could improve."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and better designed."
"The reporting and the information query features could do with some improvement."
"It would be helpful if ARIS BPA could have a simple database to get the extract of various attributes."
"The Risk and Compliance Management tool is rather complex and moreover, it needs to be customized if you want to use it."
"Newer versions (9.x) are technically more difficult to maintain."
"Hawkeye is emerging as a reporting solution, but as a V1 product it’s not very useful yet."
"The license pricing is too high currently for Nintex Workflow."
"Converting a document from PDF to MS Word, or vice versa, needs to be improved."
"K2 is a workflow solution, and there is no RPA solution with K2. This is where K2 lacks a little bit. It is just a heavy workflow solution. It doesn't have a supplemental product like RPA. If you want to use RPA, you have to use Blue Prism, UIPath, or something else. If you use Nintex, it has an RPA solution. It is a form-based application, and they are doing everything electronically. The initial investment in K2 is heavy because it is a BPM software. It does not have a low cost because they charge you the same for one workflow or 100 workflows."
"We'd like to have integration with SharePoint."
"I think it was lacking a little bit in its multiple in-house processes and other processes. So there is a little bit of a gap in collaboration."
"We would like to design parallel workflows and long-running workflows, along with new features for connecting to cloud-based systems."
"The solution is a bit too expensive. It could be cheaper."
