"The solution's most valuable feature is ArchiMate which I use daily."
"The features I find most valuable is the ability to create a document and then put it into a OneCare artifact."
"Its most valuable feature is the Zachman Framework."
"We use it to develop and maintain the Enterprise Conceptual Model, migrated from erwin a couple of years ago."
"It has led some teams to do better code reviews - to be less focussed on coding conventions (syntax) and more focussed on the semantics because of the abstraction level clear design affords."
"The solution saved a lot of time, about 30%."
"The profiles and ready-made templates are an extremely helpful feature. This is one of the biggest features that I find very useful in Sparx."
"The most valuable feature of Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect is the value streams."
"Ability to model and create view under same roof."
"The user-friendliness could be even better."
"The solution should allow easier access with enhanced customization options for web page DHTML."
"I struggled with most of the features for this tool, as did the rest of our architecture team."
"Because its easy to create diagrams one needs to be vigilant on the housekeeping of orphaned fragments - I have written my own scripts to do this, maybe they are available now."
"It would be great if we could decrease the use of different parts of the Toolbox."
"The areas of improvement should be focused on utility service such as producing better graphics, perhaps having a wider image library set and producing better models for working directly with customers."
"It would be nice to have it supported on the Linux operating system."
"I would like it to be less of a general tool. Currently, it is not a Swiss army knife that can do everything. It is not specialized for our purposes. We are a civil engineering company. We build things. We work mostly in what is known as Infra world in the Netherlands, which comprises objects such as bridges, locks, and water management. We would like to see more focus on such types of projects. It would be nice if it has more specializations. At the moment, it is very generic, and you have to create everything yourself. Our focus is more on user requirement management, which is currently very basic. I would like to see a lot more functionality in this area. Its basic functions for adding user requirements are perfect, but we need more features. Currently, it has limited possibilities for our requirements. I would also like to see better contract management and have it managed in a certain way."
"The initial setup of the Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect It's very complicated. It's very difficult to start with the right templates because there are many possibilities. The deployment took approximately two days."
"Their technical support is not good in India. I wrote to them because I had a question, but I never got an answer. So, I just left it behind."
