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 product has a strong and easy integration with Teams."
"The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great."
"It's all now on cloud subscription, so you can use all the features without worrying about making the system updates patches."
"OpenText 360's best features are platform independence and its performance when searching large numbers of documents."
"We concentrate on the legal industry, such as legal libraries. It's the most structured solution we have used and implemented for five years."
"We have manual processes, so the workflow enables us to automate a number of these processes."
"It has a lot of flexibility, and Microsoft does come up with some new additions from time to time."
"In terms of its most valuable features, this solution, in general, will provide all you need and it's very convenient to use. We can share our details to collaborative platforms. We can give access to users. It's pretty flexible."
"We can use workflow manager to create forms."
"The most valuable feature is that you can customize it completely with all of the attributes that you need."
"The Signavio tool is very easy to use and it is one of the reasons why I like it."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the portal for spreading it over the organization, the usability, and the workflow generator in the background."
"The Collaboration Hub is especially useful for collaborative tasks and ensuring transparency across teams."
"The collaboration hub is good because it allows us to share the models that we've captured and to get comments back, and we don't all have to be in the same room, it can be remote and over time."
"It is highly user-friendly and easy to use, even for those who are not familiar with product modeling."
"I use SAP Signavio Process Manager to model processes to the former operating model."
 

Cons

"The graphical user interface had to be more user-friendly. It's not as intuitive."
"Integration is an area where the solution lacks."
"The user interface could definitely be improved."
"If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option."
"We have a very good time to market tool, and the development platform should be made user-friendly. Mostly, it's just support."
"I would like for there to be even more integrations in the next release and I believe that the price could go down a bit."
"They need to come with more out of the box solutions, rather than depending on customers to develop them."
"The platform's workflows could be more intuitive and easier to use."
"The performance metrics appearing in the collaboration hub needs to be improved."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"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."
"Its reporting feature could have customization options."
"There are some small graphical bugs, but they are addressed immediately by Signavio to their product development team."
"There is a need for more varied access packages. The access packages that I have used are not cheap enough. They also provide a complete set of tools that are not always used. Sometimes, you need more segregated things, e.g., Signavio includes functionality for a company that has not yet matured. Since there are no basic packages, the company must pay for a package that is not fully used. Typically, process management is started in a company of a certain maturity."
"One of the most important points in Signavio that would be a great change would be the management of variants of the process."
"The collaboration and commenting are great. However, I think it would be more useful for people to get notifications of comments straight-away so we can react even quicker to them than we already can."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On-premises version is expensive"
"The solution has a very complex pricing model."
"There is a license needed to use OpenText 360 for SharePoint and we pay annually. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
"OpenText 360's price varies depending on how long you've been a customer, how many licenses you have, and which products you use."
"Its price is reasonable, but its licensing is very complex. This platform contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify its licensing."
"It has a reasonable price."
"Pricing is a part of the enterprise agreement that we have."
"SharePoint uses a subscription model."
"I found the pricing of the solution to be moderate compared to other choices."
"The solution is expensive."
"The customer Journey Modeler is more than twice the price of Process Manager, which is a lot."
"I rate the tool's pricing a nine out of ten."
"We are using the free trial version."
"SAP Signavio charges a lot of money."
"It is expensive. The license is monthly."
"Although Signavio is a feature-rich solution, it is expensive for companies who haven’t reached a certain maturity level in their process management initiatives."
