Alfabet FastLane vs LeanIX comparison

"The solution has provided us with a view of the truth in terms of our application portfolio."

"The solution has a very useful assessment tool that automatically populates from input data to produce a detailed analysis of customer's environments."

"We've been able to develop some nice looking reports, and the dashboard's capability to map is very easy compared to Enterprise Architect."

"The most valuable features are the clean user interface and the fact sheet feature in Application Portfolio Management. The tool integrates well with ServiceNow, which is the usual CMDB platform."

"I like LeanIX's ease of use in general."

"Interfaces well with downstream systems of data."

"LeanIX has good usability and stability. This SaaS is intuitive, easy to use, and comes with a nice reporting feature."

"It offers neat visualization and referencing functionality while enabling the creation of landscape maps and showing the relationship between different applications."

"The usability is very high. It almost looks like a Facebook for Enterprise architecture, it's pretty nice. It's HTML5 based. The repository is very easy. It has 10 different ways of sorting the objects you have in your architecture repository. Maintaining new data or to add data to your repository is very easy."

"The initial setup is challenging because it relies on information from different stakeholders."

"LeanIX experiences a lot of server timeouts. Nearly every transaction needs to be done twice due to these issues."

"LeanIX should improve its support services."

"I think the tool's main issue might be direct integrations."

"It's hard to predict the pricing of the system."

"The solution uses Gartner's time-based framework for application rationalization. One more thing that you can consider is having some add-on frameworks for the same, not just Gartner."

"The modeling could be improved."

"The solution needs to incorporate a data patch tool that moves within and irons data."

"They should improve the out of the box connectors that they provide. They should see if clients are really ready to adapt them."

"I am with a third-party so am not privy to costs."

"The pricing is very good. We definitely get good value for the money."

"There is a sweet spot of where they need to be on pricing right now. They could go up a little bit in pricing, but it has to do with the cost savings, and it has to do with the practitioners using it. I use it where I get cost savings and I can justify it, but they probably have the ability to flex a 10% up channel on their sales on that. So, they could increase their settle price, not their offering price, when they sell. They can probably hold that up a little bit higher than it is because there are cost savings that we can drive from it."

"LeanIX uses application-based account licensing, where the cost is multiplied by the number of applications in the software implementation."

"As the tool is cloud-based, its cost is more affordable."

"I would rate the pricing a one out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"The solution's pricing is based on a licensing model that is competitive and in line with other products."

"It cost me $91,000 a year for 300 applications. For any enterprise, 300 applications are minimal, as many have well over 1,000 applications."

"The tool needs to include more flexible licensing options. We do not use the tool all the time. So pricing should be considered only when we use the tool."
