Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The initial setup and installation are very straightforward.""I am an advanced user. ARIS BPM is intuitive for me because I know the UML, BPMN, and EPC methodologies implemented in this tool. It is very easy to create processes for restructuring a company with some descriptions.""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.""Good at controlling the workflow and relevant key processes.""In general, the users really like it and they can get started using it very easily.""There is a module designer, that one is very powerful and it creates very good reports.""The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting.""The most valuable features of ARIS BPA are its flexibility and reporting."

Cons
"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 user interface could be more intuitive and better designed.""The reporting and the information query features could do with some improvement.""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.""There is not enough documentation provided for the tool's support or administration.​""Since this is a design tool, seamless interface to make the process flows executable.""Migration to the next release is very tricky. You can't do it without support from ARIS or from a software kit. And it takes a lot of time and a lot of money to migrate. My impression is that a lot of companies do not migrate regularly because of that issue.""The solution is difficult and not very exciting to learn."

"There is definitely a need to produce models in XML. There is already something available, but it seems that transferring between the different modelling tools is difficult."
