Transforming banking process documentation with effective collaboration tools
The free trial needs to have more options for end users, such as including Process Intelligence as a trial version. Although mentioned on the website, the governance feature is not available in the free trial. More guidance from support is also needed, as users can get lost on the website when looking for specific features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have done a lot of modeling over quite a number of years, and I think that the modeling capabilities in Signavio are state of the art."
"For the collaboration functions, we use the commenting and quick model functions for process owners who don't have specific knowledge about Process Manager."
"The formatting features are quite good because you can create very complex models, but you can easily clean them up so that they look very nice."
"I really like the Collaboration Hub because it's so easy to communicate. And what is really important is that you can use it asynchronously. It doesn't matter if you're working in Italy or in America. You are using the same process and you can speak about the same process."
"Process Manager supports end-to-end transformation. Students can better understand end-to-end activity and processes as well as how they are run. For teaching, it's process discovery, then modeling, and finally optimization and simulation, partly. Typically, we showcase some simulation of the processes, and this is where we finish. That is why we validate that it's properly designed, but also what are the outcomes of modeled processes. There are also options for discussion on process optimization."
"The collaboration hub, which helps us in terms of being able to communicate with our customers, brings everybody into the tool and close to the process, allowing them to comment and to implement their own processes."
"The collaboration function in the project views is valuable because people can comment on the processes and we can respond."
"One of the most valuable features is ease of use which has really been a good thing to put into the business. People like tools that they can just pick up and use straight-away."
"A complete project management suite in one integrated package."
"The most valuable feature of SoftExpert BPM is its ease of use."
 

Cons

"It is not easy to learn the product."
"It is sometimes difficult to find the match between what is possible and what is wanted, or what is helpful with the product, so better documentation may assist in this regard."
"I would like to see more predictive analytics. The tool already has all the process maps, but it could offer a more proactive improvement offering. For example, they could put a little bit more machine learning behind it."
"The solution is complex."
"I would like to see the inclusion of some document management functionality so that we don't need to integrate with a second solution to accommodate this."
"It's very user-orientated, which is why I gave it a high rating, even if it is not perfect in every corner."
"If you start from scratch then I think this product would be ideal, but if you already have something then it may or may not suit you."
"It would be beneficial to have a defined leveling or hierarchy system to facilitate better understanding and analysis. More openness and flexibility would enhance its capabilities."
"It could do more to use all the data it collects to intelligently manage the user experience."
"The form in SoftExpert BPM should improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Lower than the competition with highly flexible licensing plans."
"The solution is quite expensive compared to other vendors."
"The customer Journey Modeler is more than twice the price of Process Manager, which is a lot."
"This solution provides really great value for the money."
"We are using the free trial version."
"Comparatively, it is a bit costly when you look at similar tools with similar features."
"The solution is expensive."
"I rate the tool's pricing a nine out of ten."
"The price of SoftExpert BPM is not expensive."
