Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Camunda, Sparx Systems and others in Business Process Design."The initial setup was really straightforward and the deployment was done within one day."
"The most valuable features for us are impact analysis, where I can easily visualize the impact of change."
"The ability to share and collaborate on the solution is its most valuable feature."
"Workgroup Repository collection of data models allows research across models without worry about platform incompatibilities and provides easy KPIs about corporate data assets."
"Support for a broad range of data sources from relational to big data to the Cloud."
"One of the most valuable features is the website that sits on top of the database. There's a database of objects and how they are related, and you can make views and diagrams and visual elements out of that information on the website. The website is the part that is called Evolve and we use the Evolve Designer and publish the website out to our employees. They can click around and navigate and search, etc."
"Evolve's reverse engineering ability is quite useful."
"Evolve is like a tank. You can do whatever you want with the solution, but you need to customize it. I think that it's not very aligned with the framework for enterprise architecture. MEGA is focused on these enterprise architectures, but it's only for that. With Evolve, you can do everything you want with professional services."
"We use it a lot for creating workflows to transfer materials between plants, which is a signature part of what we do."
"If it had fewer features to model all kinds of architecture, it would be less complicated."
"I feel that the UML drawing capability needs to be improved."
"I would like to see an improvement in the output of the solution."
"There might be improvement required to better support some of the MPP databases for non-relational data structures and NoSQL databases."
"They have improved the search engine a little bit but it can always be improved more. The more data you put inside it, the more you want to use it."
"It could have had a more streamlined navigation. It seemed that when you went to the explorer panel, there were just so many different ways of doing the work that I could not remember, "How did I do this? How did I get to that point in that model to get back to it?" If I wanted to build a new one, where do I start? It just seemed like there was such a smorgasbord of ways of doing it that it was just overwhelming."
"They need to develop Evolve's user experience. For example, MEGA has a useful client view that helps with impact analysis. MEGA provides information about the processes, services, infrastructure, and portfolio of applications in one central view. It lets you see the periphery and relationships among components. This view is impressive, and Evolve doesn't have it."
"Evolve is primarily focused on the entity's licenses diagrams, but it would be nice if erwin could integrate case development, so that it shows the ER diagram plus certain inputs on the use cases and how the data is used. That deviates somewhat from the overall scope, so maybe they could call it a different product."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
