Provides comprehensive way to connect workflow and cross-feed documents, but needs support for multi-page processes

What is our primary use case?

I use it for a couple of things. It's mainly for plotting workflows in our organization, and we also use it as a repository for all the properties and the documents. It's also used in our approval process cycle. I'm dealing with a lot of the departments, many teams, and each team has to approve a process for themselves and share it across the company. The solution is on-premise.

Pros and Cons

  • "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."
  • "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."

What other advice do I have?

I would rate iGrafx at seven out of ten. I'm not giving it a higher score because it's not so easy, not that user-friendly. The interface needs to be more effective. I wouldn't give it less than seven because it's a really serious solution.

Great BPMN feature; has greatly assisted the company in implementing procedural improvements

What is our primary use case?

My primary use case of this solution is for charting the processes in relation to the ISO 9000 standard, as far as the process goes. I try to use it as extensively as I can. If I see that a process flow chart is appropriate for any documentation, I try to use that instead of writing a procedure. We are customers of iGrafx and I'm a quality manager.

Pros and Cons

  • "Provides a valuable BPMN feature."
  • "The price could be more competitive."

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend using this as a cloud-based solution. I would rate this solution a nine out of 10.

Pre-defined templates and data analysis functions assist us with performance enhancements

Pros and Cons

  • "This product fulfills ninety percent of our needs, and we're happy as users of it."
  • "It would be helpful to be able to do more analytics and generate reports on historical documents that have already been uploaded to the server."

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend this solution. The top two are ARIS and iGrafx. Each of them has some advantage over the other, but in general, they're the tip top. This product fulfills ninety percent of our needs, and we're happy as users of it. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Good for finding the right symbols but it should have more layers

What is our primary use case?

My primary use case is for business processes.

Pros and Cons

  • "Finding the right symbol and creating links, horizontal and vertical are the features I use."
  • "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."

What other advice do I have?

I would rate it a six out of ten.
