Helps to track the life cycle of products and services, and understand their costs
The tool allows us to track the life cycle of products and resources. When the metadata is set up correctly, we can see where things are in their life cycle and how they fit into our processes. It helps us understand which core processes are active and whether any underlying elements need renewal. We can also keep tabs on the costs. The most beneficial feature has been reporting. Being able to track the life cycle of products and services and understand their costs has been crucial. However, I've also been exploring other features that allow us to evaluate tools from both the business and technical sides. The tool was easy to get started with. Some of the reporting features have been particularly useful for our company management. I've built reports showing the costs of running the company and the processes running beneath them. Additionally, I've used it for lifecycle management from a technical perspective. I discovered a feature I haven't tried yet: exporting data to HTML. This allows for neatly gathered reports in one place where you can search through them via HTML and find what you need.

"The tool allows us to track the life cycle of products and resources. When the metadata is set up correctly, we can see where things are in their life cycle and how they fit into our processes.

"The most valuable features of iServer are the integration with Microsoft Office and the interface is similar to Microsoft applications making them easy to use."
"Tech support is very responsive. They solved issues within a prompt response time."
"This flexibility is the most helpful part in the standard version."
"There were lots of different requirements, and collaboration and review is one of the biggest things. There is also Office 360 integration, and there's flexibility to use it as a database as well."
"Integrating the Microsoft documents to the product and visualization matrix where we can see the end-to-end relationship of the network is of great importance to our company."
"The product has a valuable customized model."
"It has helped having data lineage in the business cluster, which is used as control artifacts."
"The most valuable feature is its reporting capability. It offers various packages for different types of reports, such as business and project management reporting packs."
 

Cons

"We need to understand how the data could be segregated."
"The tool's data lineage could be enhanced. It would be great to see the data flow and understand where it's going within the system."
"More visualization techniques and ways to report the data might be helpful."
"The modelling needs improvement, specifically forecasting capabilities and scenarios."
"It runs relatively slowly."
"There are other solutions out there that have a better user interface."
"iServer should invest in enhancing the capabilities of the embedded drawing tool, draw.io."
"There can be some performance issues using the solution that should be improved. When you make modifications modify to files there are embedded data within that can take a while to process."
"The performance is slow, which is something that should be improved."
"The product is more expensive than Spark."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I use ADOIT's open-source version."
"The solution is cheaper than its competitors."
"The product has a moderate pricing."
"It's about 13K to set up and 9K for the license for three months. I think it's about 20K a year, but we haven't firmed up on pricing yet because the price depends on how long we commit to the solution."
"They offer annual subscriptions for developing countries, which are not affordable for small or medium businesses."
"Aim for the exact number of people who shall define/review approve and view the processes, as it will impact the cost."
"The price of iServer is reasonable compared to other solutions."
