Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"In terms of using the cloud version, if you're somebody who, like myself, has got a lot of experience and understands measures and notations and things, basically it's unrestricted. You can do so many things. You can do your Archimaze, you can do BPMN. There's lots of stuff you can do in there and if you're a good field person and you cause yourself re-using things or whatever, then it's very nice, it's very easy to use.""From a total cost of ownership perspective, running this on the cloud is more efficient than having someone in the company take care of the infrastructure.""The most valuable feature is GUI; it is very intuitive and easy to use.""The cloud version has the advantage that you can work on it from anywhere.""In terms of UX design, somebody who has not had experience with ARIS will be able to use it very easily.""This solution has improved the way our organization does training.""In the end, what stands out to me is the ease of using the cloud. I don't see any distinct or unique advantages in business process modeling software compared to other application software. The cloud simplifies operations and removes many operational complexities, which is a significant benefit.""The solution's most valuable feature stems from its being very easy to use, making it a very user-friendly tool."

"The best thing about Kissflow is its user-friendliness.""The best thing is the no-code part. Even a person without experience with the coding language can easily understand and build the processes.""Kissflow has reduced the bottleneck around getting approval for certain items in the company.""I like the forms which help us to get information.""Kissflow is intuitive and easy to use, and I haven't faced any errors using the solution so far.""The support team responds fast.""The best thing about KiSSFLOW is that we can do virtual approvals.""I work in HR and am fond of automation. I like the tool's email automation and integration with Outlook."

Cons
"ARIS' flexibility and power add a certain complexity. And if ARIS could be more streamlined, I think customers would have a better handle on what to do with it in the end. So if you're not a tech geek, you might struggle to understand what you should do with it as a customer because it's that powerful.""The support team of ARIS Cloud has certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""I would like to see more support for architectural diagrams.""It would be very helpful if this solution were more open and could integrate with other solutions like ServiceNow.""The price is quite high. This is one weak point of the solution.""Initial setup is rather complex. You have to find a way to isolate the complexity, and find common ground.""It seems that there could be innovations in fostering spontaneous cooperation between departments and individuals. This extends to case management and finding new paradigms for enhancing such cooperation. While some approaches, like basic case management tools, have been tried in the past, they may not have met expectations entirely. However, ongoing efforts in administrative science are focused on these areas. Companies with innovative ideas can contribute to progress, possibly involving concepts related to trust, even within the context of web 3. There are intriguing developments in how economic and business organizations can be formed. When it comes to learning about these concepts, starting with simple examples and gradually moving to more complex ones is advisable. Begin with the basics, excluding unnecessary details that might hinder understanding. Over time, you can delve into more intricate aspects, such as Bitcoin and the Lightning Network, to gain a deeper understanding of these technologies.""I encounter challenges, and I am using Yuri to establish principles, define rules, conduct training sessions, and offer coaching to application owners, SMEs, and individuals responsible for technologies. This aids in providing support during these migrations. Security is a consideration when migrating to the cloud. It's crucial to address potential risks and include security measures in the contract with the cloud provider. While there haven't been issues so far, acknowledging the risks is essential, especially when dealing with applications like ARIS. With the increasing capabilities and advancements in technology, many current challenges are likely to be resolved in the future. Despite security concerns, utilizing opportunities in the cloud and the internet offers significant advantages. Regarding areas for improvement, security remains a key consideration, especially when deploying ARIS in the cloud. However, this is not solely a product-specific concern but also pertains to the cloud environment. Beyond security, the strength of ARIS lies in its ability to serve as a unified repository for enterprise architecture. Having all information in one place facilitates alignment with the company's vision, strategy, and business objectives. Reducing redundancies across departments is crucial for maintaining service quality and minimizing costs. It ensures that everyone is on the same page, fostering collaboration and preventing discrepancies in information and services. While I currently use Guardis for this purpose, the concept of enterprise architecture is applicable, and ARIS stands as a valuable tool to support business processes and technology alignment within the company."

"The UI, though is pretty friendly and easy to use, can be improved in some aspects.""One area where I believe Kissflow can be improved is customization.""Sometimes some notifications don't appear on the mobile app.""When there are multiple steps or if there's a disconnect when creating the ticket, it could be a problem for the user.""The integration between forms should be made easier.""If Kissflow can help users to be able to organize the company manuals and information, the blogs, and everything into one resource, that would be awesome.""There is room for improvement in terms of stability.""In future releases, it would be interesting to have a repository or portal within KiSSFLOW where users can interact with the KiSSFLOW community."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "There is a student version of this solution that can be used for free."

  • "The cloud deployment is not more expensive. In the cloud, you pay for what you use, and there's no need for maintaining infrastructure or additional personnel, making it cost-effective. On-premises deployment, on the other hand, involves infrastructure costs and maintenance expenses."
