Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Architecture Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like the solution's traceability."
"The most valuable features of SAP PowerDesigner are the creation the flow charts and folders. It is a powerful tool."
"I mostly work on the conceptual and logical side of things, and I enjoy how easy it is to use."
"The solution is a very pragmatic tool. It's quite easy to use."
"Very good repository features."
"The most valuable feature of SAP PowerDesigner is the testing of the models, it has the best function. Reverse engineering is very helpful too."
"The most valuable feature is that it is a very fast reverse engineering process. It does a very expansive comparison."
"It offers a lot of features in one solution. You would have to get multiple other products to bundle together all of the capabilities that you get in just this product."
"Provides the flexibility to create logical and conceptual data models."
"The solution is not easy and intuitive to use. I would also like the software to have a reference metamodel that can guide the modeling."
"Regarding improvements, I suggest enhancing the connection between objects in process and data models. It's crucial to define the structure of objects, especially when dealing with standard frameworks like VMM. There should be better visualization of arrows between BPM and data modeling objects, specifying their structure and impact. For future versions, a feature similar to Bizagi, allowing users to see forms or SQL representations of objects, would be valuable for demonstrating and presenting project details to stakeholders."
"SAP PowerDesigner could improve by making the repository easier to understand. It is difficult to understand how the repository works because when I used logical models as part of the team, we wanted to use them together and update the older versions of the data model version but it was confusing. The repository needs to be explained."
"There should be a better usage of current hardware including multicore CPUs, higher resolutions, and multiple displays."
"Connectivity can be improved because it's not very good."
"There are some minor things that could be easier. We're writing up procedures to bring all the modeling back into one group as this reduces delays in production."
"The tool lags in the area of customer service."
"Not very intuitive or user-friendly."
"The data governance should be improved, like ER/Studio."
