Find out what your peers are saying about LeanIX, Sparx Systems, erwin by Quest and others in Enterprise Architecture Management."The product's most valuable feature is adaptability."
"It is a handy tool for visual modeling that provides opportunities for analysis, design, and support of models using ArchiMate, UML."
"The TOGAF ADM model is most valuable. It is also very cheap as compared to other options in the market."
"The initial setup is easy."
"I like that there is support for software patterns."
"Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect is very flexible and it is simple to define the metamodel. Additionally, it is lightweight on resources."
"The stability has been good and satisfactory. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"Provides a single repository for all architecture work."
"The profiles allow me to customize the tool to the corporate environment instead of the other way around saving huge amounts of time and energy on trying to turn dozens of individuals into TOGAF, ArchiMate or Zachman experts, or even Sparx EA experts."
"They could provide a simplified process for building and deploying solutions in the cloud."
"This solution should have better ease of use for the uninitiated."
"I would like the system to more "intellectually" build a scheme, place icons, and connect lines on the schemes."
"What should be improved are the integration capabilities of the solution with Bizagi."
"The elements of the modeling sets can have better customization and visual representation. It would be great to have a mobile version."
"The Business Process Modeling or BPM feature can be improved to make it more interactive and user friendly because it is a tool for technical people. My current use is only for business process modeling notation and putting in the icons etc. You need to take them in as a class, which makes things very complex. Because of this complexity, it is not an easy-to-handle solution. Enterprise Architect is not very good for mockups. We cannot create user screens and other similar kinds of stuff, which is bad. For these things, we prefer to use Axure RP and other similar solutions. They should either remove this feature from this product or provide some kind of connectivity with Axure RP so that people can do better mockups of screens and import them. They need to augment and strengthen the BPM feature, which is the main feature. They need to put in some elements like artificial intelligence and augmented reality. They should look into such features because these things are coming up."
"I would like to see integration with Confluence or any other TRM, and the capability to integrate with the data storage, such as a repository similar to GitHub."
"No way to implement data integrity and referential integrity constraints."
"In a future release, they should improve portfolio planning."
