WW
Data Analyst at Rhythex
Good automation and analytics, but is costly
The report model was our main concern. I believe currently the solution uses a third party for the reporting. As part of a consulting firm, one of the challenges we face is the difficulty in producing reports that meet the expectations of our clients and customers. It would be beneficial if the focus could be shifted toward improving the reporting aspect. The impact report is a crucial aspect, as we only have one opportunity to create it. Galvanize HighBond can improve by generating more impact reports post-project, and allowing access to the reports using a web version, which would greatly benefit us. The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement.

Supports process modeling and customization but needs better reporting flexibility and UI improvements
As an administrator, I would improve MEGA HOPEX by adding a WYSIWYG feature for building reports, which would be very helpful. Additionally, I would want reporting customization from the front end web application, not only from the Windows app, which is the customizer. If all changes could be made in the web application, that would be beneficial because every time we need to request access to the server, it takes time in large organizations and involves multiple levels of approvals from cybersecurity and IT security, which can block the project. Regarding dashboards in MEGA HOPEX, they could definitely be better. Having something similar to ARIS would make it easier to build dashboards, providing a what-you-see-is-what-you-get experience, allowing me to drag and drop elements, configure them, and test queries. Moreover, RFQL language is not common, so in MEGA HOPEX, I need to learn RFQL querying. In terms of additional features for MEGA HOPEX, I would appreciate more features for workflows. There are limitations in customizing the email notifications sent during workflows. When creating a workflow, I can configure actions and customize the text, but not the header and footer. Therefore, all emails from the tool come with a MEGA HOPEX header. In large organizations like BPM COE, we want to have our own logo, header, and footer in those emails, but this is not configurable, which I find limiting. I would appreciate easier features to customize workflows and create workflows.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The most valuable feature is automation."
"The support experience in Latin America is great."
"What I find the most valuable is the process workflow. It is really good."
"The most valuable parts of this solution are the richness of its features and its easy interface."
"Every module sets up the same information in a unique repository."
"MEGA HOPEX has extensive modeling capabilities and can be modeled in different ways."
"We have many use cases for this solution but the feature I have found most valuable is the IT Portfolio Management module."
"The solution is scalable. If a company needs to expand it, it's completely possible to do so."
"You do not need to be a professional of enterprise modeling to contribute to the enrichment and improvement of the enterprise repository."
 

Cons

"The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement."
"There could be continuous AI enhancements for the platform."
"There is still room for improvement in MEGA HOPEX in my field of work. Some aspects are not working efficiently."
"Lacking more out of the box integrations."
"The training materials and learning process need improvement."
"We would like to see integration with other products, such as being able to use our workflow with SharePoint and Microsoft Office."
"I cannot recall coming across any missing features."
"The tool needs to have a viewer portal. Currently, we have to use a custom solution to display information, which requires additional effort and tracking of data on a daily basis. Having a built-in viewer dashboard portal would be beneficial."
"The interface must be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I give the cost of the solution a six out of ten."
"The product is reasonably priced for the value it offers. There's a good balance between cost and features."
"It is very expensive."
"The pricing depends on the number of licenses purchased."
"I've been told that MEGA HOPEX is very expensive, which is why small organizations dismiss the tool. It's complex and costly versus other simpler and cheaper solutions."
"The product has a high cost."
"If you want to use additional features, such as the Risk Management capability, then it is a little too expensive."
"The price of the MEGA HOPEX license could improve, it is expensive. The license key for business process analysis and IT architecture is approximately €10,000. This price is fixed, it's not a subscription or cloud-based version. It is a one-time price."
"The tool is relatively expensive."
