I've used it for a long time and it's a fantastic tool. There is a list of things ARIS has that other solutions do not have."
"The stability of the ARIS BPM platform is quite good. The nice thing about it is the central database, where we can use all of our data. We can even manage users."
"The most valuable feature is the process documentation. For us, ARIS is a lifestyle more than a tool. It helps us learn how to think and how to plan for our system."
"The capability to integrate all information of the business and to generate simulations of processes. It can analyze the model of operations quickly."
"One of the many advantages of ARIS is that it is supported by a very strong BPM community, which is critical for us. Although it has been in business for many years, it is still at an early stage of evolution. There are so many instances where your specific use case or requirement for using ARIS hasn't necessarily been matured across the sector. So, you need access to a very active community to help you explore possible solutions and ways in which ARIS can be used to achieve those use cases."
"It is a well-featured, functional product."
"In general, the users really like it and they can get started using it very easily."
"The technical support is good."
"Easy to use and easy to integrate into the products and applications we provide for our customers."
"It has been a stable solution so far since it meets our needs, including data modeling, which we need to do before we embark on analyzing and optimizing the business processes."
", Camunda can be a powerful tool to work with when used in an optimized and well-implemented manner."
"Camunda's process diagram creation and deployment is very easy."
"The graphical interface is very beneficial."
"Ease of use and ability to streamline a process model."
"The Camunda BPMN Platform is very flexible and gives several options to deploy and scale it."
"The visibility – the diagrams you create – and then being able to automate based on them are valuable features. It's easy to explain and comprehend, and the integration aspects are valuable."
"There are some things in the collaboration module that could be improved a little, such as the functionality which dynamically pushes notifications to interested people when a process changes during the Release Cycle Management workflow."
"Since this is a design tool, seamless interface to make the process flows executable."
"End-to-end visibility and real-time are areas that will need greater attention."
"User interface (UI)."
"The Risk and Compliance Management tool is rather complex and moreover, it needs to be customized if you want to use it."
"Sometimes, ARIS BPA breaks down, and its stability can be improved."
"The tool needs to improve its support since they take long to respond."
"The governance mechanism could be better, as could automation."
"There are a few things that I'm missing. For instance, the user interface creator, which I know other systems have, like Aurea or Lombardi, which are IBM solutions. The interface creator, including the data model creator or some module which would allow the users who are not programmers or business consultants and who are not technically skilled in database and Java programming, to create data models and user interfaces."
"If they could build some scripts or some configuration to get it up and running in a Docker environment, that would be good. I didn't find anything when on Docker, however, maybe they have something and I didn't see it yet."
"If Camunda could develop something that creates user forms that would be a great feature to have. They also need to improve the UI."
"The product's initial setup phase is difficult for beginners."
"The latency of API could be decreased."
"Camunda Platform's customer support could be improved because their response is quite slow."
"The migration strategy needs to be improved."
"When building interfaces, there are limited tools to work with, especially when dealing with different types of tasks, such as user tasks and system tasks."
