Find out in this report how the two Business Process Design solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Features like SAP SolMan sync, Alfabet EA integration (another Software AG product)."
"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 features of ARIS BPA are its flexibility and reporting."
"The tool defines the processes. It's the documentation of everything."
"The solution is user-friendly and easy to expose."
"The initial setup and installation are very straightforward."
"It helps the business make an informed decision."
"This solution has helped us in terms of discovering business processes."
"It is very easy to use. I can just click on an application component and find out if we are using this particular component. This provides us flexibility."
"The most valuable feature is that it allows you to work with different methods, using the same tool."
"The most valuable features are the application, portfolio, data, architectures, and modeling things."
"One of the main advantages of this solution is that they have representation in the Open Group Forum, which means that any changes in ArchiMate are immediately implemented in BiZZdesign."
"The enterprise studio where the modelling happens is valuable."
"The initial setup of this solution was very straightforward."
"This is one of the best tools, especially because of its collaborative nature. Anyone using it can access previous projects and related data. It's definitely a strong collaborative tool."
"The feature I find most valuable is that the start times and loading times are short. It takes only a few seconds to load the repository and whenever I want to open diagrams, they are there almost immediately."
"If you want to create new reports then you have to use JavaScript, or ARIS script as they call it, which is beyond the competencies of most people."
"I believe the solutions BPM tools are not very good and need improvements."
"Since ARIS 9.X was released, the product has not been as robust and responsive as the previous versions."
"I use it strictly for developing the business process model. I don't use it for the actual automation. I do that with Vtenext. I have standardized on Vtenext, and I don't use ARIS BPM anymore. The Vtenext UI is just as good, and it is much more tightly coupled to the underlying object model. I can get more done in one session with Vtenext rather than first going to ARIS BPM, then importing, and having to edit it for tight coupling."
"In terms of improvement, the app could use some small details and functionalities."
"Its governance tool and integration with ESB and execution engine can be improved. Their partner support can also be improved."
"The workflow approval process could be represented better in the overviews."
"With ARIS BPM, the script creation is quite cumbersome. With version ten, we needed our developers to do scripting."
"The automatic data collection and interface need improvement."
"The users of BiZZdesign should be able to enter their data or make modeling changes via HoriZZon."
"Integration definitely needs improvement. There are some restrictions. We've seen that it doesn't integrate with everything we might expect."
"There could be simpler modelling."
"It should be more open to integrating with other existing tools. Although there has been progress in the past."
"I have seen table charts where, if the chart is a little too big, it does not fit in HoriZZon and it is not at all visible... There have been several times where we could not publish a chart properly and we had to break the chart into small tables and create multiple artifacts, creating a complete mess. This should be seriously taken up by BiZZdesign because there is a lot of scope for improvement in terms of usability. It's not at all good, unfortunately."
"We tested it, and we had support from BiZZdesign, including patches, but it just didn't do what we wanted."
"Scalability is a bit of a problem for BiZZdesign. There is always a possibility it will failover."
