Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Aris BPA has a lot of tools that are more professional than Bizagi.""The whole ARIS BPM solution is a bit special, because from the very beginning it was targeted more to Business users and the Management.""The simulation engine and SAP integration are technically very robust.""The solution's basic features are easy to use, overall designed well, and it has good process mining analysis.""The most valuable feature is the flexibility of the solution to fully customize the methodology according to the company's needs, and to enforce that methodology with features like filters, semantic checks, and reports.""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.""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.""​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.​"

"It has a lot of flexibility, and Microsoft does come up with some new additions from time to time.""The product has a strong and easy integration with Teams.""The most valuable feature of OpenText 360 for SharePoint is its performance. The solution is one of the best in the market if you search the internet.""The most valuable features are collaboration, traceability, retention of documents, and search.""The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great.""It's all now on cloud subscription, so you can use all the features without worrying about making the system updates patches.""The fact that it allows for the internal sharing of information is very good.""The fact that you can see and create something that fits your business is the most valuable thing in this platform. It is a customizable product, so it fits your needs."

Cons
"There is a lot of room for improvement. They need to increase the performance of the system flow. They need to support it more. ARIS Process Governance is still quite basic, and they are using an old BPM and process automation module.""Some improvements have been done, after Software AG acquired ARIS, but I don't believe it's still integrated with the other tool WebMethods in a perfect way.""The solution's processes are huge and it is not easy to get an overview of how things work. It needs to improve the interface. I would like to see the product include a better overview of processes and improve search.""Simulation is one area that is a bit complex.""The Risk and Compliance Management tool is rather complex and moreover, it needs to be customized if you want to use it.""The standard out-of-the-box solutions for modeling are not so good. You have to do some configuration to make it easier and more user-friendly.""The product is difficult to use for someone without prior knowledge of working with it. It requires a certain level of administration training.""The user experience's usability (in general) should be improved as the tool is updated."

More ARIS BPA Cons →

"Integration is an area where the solution lacks.""We have a very good time to market tool, and the development platform should be made user-friendly. Mostly, it's just support.""The user interface could definitely be improved.""If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option.""An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved.""I would like for there to be even more integrations in the next release and I believe that the price could go down a bit.""Its licensing needs to be simplified. Currently, its licensing is very complex. It contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify the licensing and make it easier to understand. It would make a customer's life easier.""They need to come with more out of the box solutions, rather than depending on customers to develop them."
