We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"iGrafx gives you the capability of documenting your process and then the ability to use it as a tool for analysis to identify the loopholes and shortcomings of your process.""Simulation is most valuable.""The solution's technical support is of good quality since they offer fast and seamless services.""Another good feature is that the numbering of the shapes in iGrafx is much easier and more convenient, in comparison to what is found in Visio. So far I haven't found anything similar to what I have with iGrafx, in that regard.""This product fulfills ninety percent of our needs, and we're happy as users of it.""It has simplified compliance with regulations and company standards.""We found the technical support to be helpful.""Web diagramming and RACI have helped expedite the process, capture, and ownership initiatives of our organization."

"The application is easy to use and provides informative diagrams.""The Visual Paradigm business process forms for designing we good. There was not a lot of configuration for the process diagram.""It is a scalable solution...The initial setup was straightforward.""What I found most valuable in Visual Paradigm is diagramming. I had a great user experience as diagramming in the tool is easy and convenient, even for complex diagrams or models. Visual Paradigm is the perfect tool for me, and I prefer it over Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect. Visual Paradigm is better for collaboration if you consider, for example, versioning, so this is another valuable tool feature that's simple and embedded in the solution. In Visual Paradigm, it's also easy to set up the project with team members and collaborate, and it's also a pro of the tool.""The pricing model is attractive.""Visual Paradigm is super user-friendly, especially for new team members. I always have them start with it because the interface is so simple to pick up. They usually spend about six months to a year using only Visual Paradigm before moving on to other tools. We also use the cloud repository for collaborative work, but I've had some trouble with code reviewing and limitations. Sometimes, customers even request the source file or exported XML because it's easier for them to access and review.""The most valuable feature of the Visual Paradigm that I use is process modeling. Additionally, the solution has a complete set of features.""The initial setup is straightforward."

Cons
"The price could be more competitive.""The solution could benefit from improvements to its interface. More specifically, when compared to other tools, the process modeling features lack symbols or object types that are used to represent the information or data within the process.""It would be helpful to be able to do more analytics and generate reports on historical documents that have already been uploaded to the server.""I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping.""In the next release, I would like to see more layers like three, four, and five. It might be possible but I haven't seen it yet.""Dragging and dropping shapes is not as user-friendly as in Visio. In Visio, it's very easy to work with shapes and in very few minutes you can plot a whole, multi swim-lane, cross-functional process.""With iGrafx, the implementation and the licensing were pretty complex.""It can be more user-friendly."

More iGrafx Process360 Live Platform Cons →

"From time to time, we experience some troubles when we work as teams.""The solution could be more compatible with other products in the future.""The solution can improve by updating the user interface, and graphics.""The user interface is not easy to navigate, so it should be made easier.""Visual Paradigm can improve by having better process mining tools and model integration.""Visual Paradigm is heavier and has more complexity than one of its competitors, e.g. Lucidchart. It could have been better if it was more simplified.""Visual Paradigm is much better now. But each project has its own challenges, which is why I'm exploring different tools for my new projects. For instance, designing reports can be tough, especially with the costly intervention of professional services from vendors.""It's still early for me to comment since I've only been using it for two months, but the responsiveness when diagramming needs to be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
  • "Our license is a subscription-based model that is per user. The solution is not expensive, I believe a subscription-based model is $10 per user."
  • "The licensing part is one of the problems. Its licensing depends on the number of users, so it sometimes gets expensive."

  • "This product is fairly cheap, but if you want more complex features, e.g. integration with other products, it does require an additional cost."
