ARIS Business Designer 

Hi,

Just about to start work on BPM and will mostly be using the ARIS Business Designer Tool. Any comments on how effective this software is? From what I gather, this is quite good. Are there any other good tools around? Please dont reply by giving free adverts to open source tools!

Just a simple query. Any good tips on using the tool and making life easier would be great

Cheers

Ken

Re: ARIS Business Designer 

Hi Ken,

Aris is a very comprehensive tool and fairly complex as well. As good as it is and as comprehensive, we found that collaborative engagement was challenging and whereas a BA level person with the correct training could get to grips with it, a business manager or process participant will struggle. It does also carry a fair price tag, but that is a matter of choice.

A tool we use called Process Master could be used alongside Aris for simplifying and speeding up the task of process discovery and documentation. This really easy to use tool can be given to business managers and assists  in their engagment and collaboration at least in the "as-is" part of the task. I have heard that Process Master are in the process of developing a connector so that you can export the BPMN diagrams and the documentation through XML to Aris and are doing this to manage round-tripping, so that you can use Process Master as the front-end to enable easy engagement. You can then export the documents through to Aris for analysis and all the other good things Aris provides, and retrieve from Aris into Process Master for update and further collaboration.

I have an early release brochure on this from PM and would gladly assist you to make contact and get a trial download - worth looking at www.processmaster.com . The pricing of the tool is also very favourable - hope this helps.

Regards

Nigel

I have always loved cooking. I learned from my Grandma June and her kitchen was her sanctuary, a small, warm sunlit space filled with jars of spices, stacks of cookbooks, and the comforting smell of something always on the stove or baking in the oven. Grandma June was as great a cook as she was a teacher to me. She never followed a recipe “to...
