Find out in this report how the two Business Process Management (BPM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The setup is easy."
"The most productive aspect of Appian lies in its ability to develop interfaces, particularly user interfaces. Creating user interfaces is highly productive, when these interfaces are integrated with the original database. In such cases, using record types proves to be a very efficient method of handling data. The synergy between interfaces and record types enhances productivity."
"Rapid development with low-code makes it easier to quickly get apps implemented and the time to break-even and ROI is much faster."
"Compared to other code tools that I've seen, Appian has a more robust rules engine"
"Write to Data Store Entity - Saving data in SQL databases is done easily using entities. Entities (CDTs in Appian terminology) define relationships and target schema tables via XSD files."
"Recently, we added Appian Process Mining, Appian Portals, and now Appian RPA."
"Appian has many valuable features, the first being the ease of development—rapid development. Second, the process of learning the product and tool is faster when compared to its peers in the market. It's closer to low-code, and while it's still not very easy, it's more low-code than other products in the industry. Appian has a good user interface, a seamless model user interface, which comes without additional coding. It can also integrate with multiple systems."
"This is the most complete solution of its kind."
"Provides a valuable BPMN feature."
"Finding the right symbol and creating links, horizontal and vertical are the features I use."
"The solution is very stable."
"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."
"We found the technical support to be helpful."
"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."
"The solution's technical support is of good quality since they offer fast and seamless services."
"It has it's own built-in UI components and doesn't provide much flexibility to customize or extend those components."
"The documentation needs to be improved."
"The reporting is not as good as in similar products. They could also improve the dashboards."
"Something I would like to see improved is an SQL database connection."
"Appian could improve their customer-facing initiatives."
"Appian could include other applications that we could reuse for other customers, CRM for example."
"One room for improvement is the ease of UI UX development, like in OutSystems and Mendix."
"The UI of Appian is more internal. Recently, there has been an addition of an external user portal for the customer-facing stuff. It's still coming out."
"It can be more user-friendly."
"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 nice to have a Spanish user interface available to us."
"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."
"The look and feel, along with the ease of use of the solution's web modeling version, is an area with certain shortcomings."
"The price could be more competitive."
"I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping."
"With iGrafx, the implementation and the licensing were pretty complex."
