SangameshwarKadole - PeerSpot reviewer
A reasonably stable BPM solution useful for process governance and process mining
The look and feel, along with the ease of use of the solution's web modeling version, is an area with certain shortcomings. The web modeling part can be a bit complex or difficult for new users of the solution. Simplifying the look and feel to make the web modeling part easy to use can greatly improve iGrafx.
Cirvesh-Daga - PeerSpot reviewer
Good visual representation for modelling and business process mapping but room for improvement in reporting functionalities
There is room for improvement in analytics. People don't realize it, but the world has changed in the last six to eight months. Customers want to see AI like ChatGPT and ML capabilities in all aspects of business processes and reporting. That would be my recommendation for any OEM in this value chain. Reporting could definitely be improved. I would like to see new features in analytics. I like that they analyze the process and give it to me visually, but I'd like the option to use DPMM instead of just DPC. I'd also like the option to have the process map laid out top to bottom instead of horizontally. Especially a choice between DPMN and EPC as a format. Because there are some people who are very comfortable with the EPC notation. The process is very clearly event-driven. There's an event, there's an action. It's very simple to understand. BPMN, which is the most popular business process notation, generally tends to have multiple frames. Actually, in multiple swimlanes rather. And those frames could each represent a particular kind of entity. Maybe it's an action, maybe it's an actor, maybe it's an event. So there are two different ways of notation. I just like Signavio to give us the ability to choose that notation. Because some companies use BPMN and some use the EPC. And then, if the minute you make that change, I'd like them to give us the flexibility of having an already plotted or vertically plotted option. Moreover, I would like to see improvement in the visual part. It's the piece that needs improvement. Currently, you can plot the diagram horizontally or vertically. However, I'd like the option to change the way the diagram is created, like switching between different notations.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution's most beneficial feature is the 360 approach, where documentation, process mining, simulation, and automation capabilities are in one solution."
"The solution's technical support is of good quality since they offer fast and seamless services."
"Another good feature is that the numbering of the shapes in iGrafx is much easier and more convenient, in comparison to what is found in Visio. So far I haven't found anything similar to what I have with iGrafx, in that regard."
"Provides a valuable BPMN feature."
"It has simplified compliance with regulations and company standards."
"The solution is very stable."
"One of the biggest plus points of the product stems from the fact that I have never seen any glitches in it."
"Simulation is most valuable."
"Process Manager is really helpful in building process maps. Creating them is really easy; the program is user-friendly."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"It is a scalable solution."
"I use SAP Signavio Process Manager to model processes to the former operating model."
"I like the collaboration and the real-time aspects of it."
"The reason we chose Signavio is it's a very robust industrial-grade business process modeling data tool, with data capture behind it, as well as a collaborative nature. A lot of it comes out of the box and requires less technology involvement. It can be run well by the business users. That's what we really like about it."
"It's way of handling is really an advantage. It's quite easy to use, without too much training . That's the main point for me."
 

Cons

"In the next release, I would like to see more layers like three, four, and five. It might be possible but I haven't seen it yet."
"If customers want to change the color or the logo, they have to go through every page to verify everything is right."
"The look and feel, along with the ease of use of the solution's web modeling version, is an area with certain shortcomings."
"I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping."
"The solution could benefit from improvements to its interface. More specifically, when compared to other tools, the process modeling features lack symbols or object types that are used to represent the information or data within the process."
"It would be helpful to be able to do more analytics and generate reports on historical documents that have already been uploaded to the server."
"The price could be more competitive."
"Dragging and dropping shapes is not as user-friendly as in Visio. In Visio, it's very easy to work with shapes and in very few minutes you can plot a whole, multi swim-lane, cross-functional process."
"The reporting is too slow and there is a limit of 250 processes."
"The performance metrics appearing in the collaboration hub needs to be improved."
"I think the interface itself can improve a bit. I think the interface is still stuck about a decade in the past, if I may be so brutal about it. Some of the buttons are really small, so you can't even see them. I think it needs upgrading to the 21st century with apps and the way we use mobile phones."
"It's very user-orientated, which is why I gave it a high rating, even if it is not perfect in every corner."
"I would like to be able to link a single word within a textual description directly to the glossary."
"Customized reporting can be improved to make this a more versatile tool."
"I find it difficult to figure out how I can better align this solution with my KPIs."
"I would like to have the option to select the color of items and subgroups in the glossary because right now it is fixed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing part is one of the problems. Its licensing depends on the number of users, so it sometimes gets expensive."
"Earlier, the licensing part was complex because there were so many modules and elements in the tool. Over the last one and a half years, a lot of work has gone into how the product has priced and positioned its tools in the market."
"My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
"I have heard that the solution's pricing is very competitive."
"Our license is a subscription-based model that is per user. The solution is not expensive, I believe a subscription-based model is $10 per user."
"I found the pricing of the solution to be moderate compared to other choices."
"I rate the tool's pricing a nine out of ten."
"It is expensive. The license is monthly."
"The solution is quite expensive compared to other vendors."
"SAP is always more expensive. The per-user cost is hard to calculate and forecast for a big company."
"Comparatively, it is a bit costly when you look at similar tools with similar features."
"SaaS has no setup cost, just licensing fees."
"SAP Signavio charges a lot of money."
