Software AG announces the availability of ARIS 10 with significant enhancements that help enterprises meet the challenges of the digital economy. New offerings in ARIS 10 include advanced visualisation and dashboarding, along with critical tools to prepare organisations to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and to maximise Internet of Things (IOT) investments.
ARIS 10 includes the first release of ARIS Aware, which enables transparency by allowing organisations to take advantage of visual analytics and make the best decisions based on reliable data. ARIS Aware is equipped with ready-to-go templates for common scenarios in business process management, including Center of Excellence, Enterprise Architecture Management, Customer Experience Management and Process Performance Management. These templates can be extended and customised according to individual needs, enabling organisations to combine data from many sources - with context-sensitive and story-telling visualisation of KPIs in charts on dashboards.
"With ARIS Aware, we address business stakeholders at every level. It is aimed at everybody who needs to gain clear insights - even into the most complex and dynamic business landscapes. The seamless integration within ARIS Connect, our process collaboration platform, enables our customers to get the best insight to build innovative business processes and manage their digital future," says Mohamed Cassoojee, Vice President of Software AG South Africa.
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) ready
ARIS 10 supports the Software AG GDPR Framework, the first line of defence for GDPR compliance. It includes all the capabilities organisations need to get and stay compliant with this major new regulation. From transparency into processes and data to GDPR impact assessment, the new GDPR Framework provides the necessary tools for insights, analysis and planning. For risk mitigation and governance, the GDPR Framework offers readiness surveys, policies and principles, controls and audits as well as issue and incident tracking.
Internet of Things (IOT) Ready
Also new in ARIS 10 is ARIS for IOT, a new modelling method supporting IOT projects from the design phase to their implementation and management. ARIS for IOT enables IOT architects to enrich business processes with smart objects, sensors and intelligent actuators. Beyond the documentation, ARIS for IOT also enables the analysis of impact on business models and processes.
"Everything we do is focused on allowing customers to realise the maximum value of digitalisation quickly. This latest ARIS release is a perfect example of bringing many technologies together, allowing both IT and business to collaborate for successful digital transformation," adds Cassoojee.
With over 2 million users, ARIS is the world's leading tool for the management and analysis of business processes and customer journeys. It sets the base for successful digital transformation, helping companies to manage their digital future. In its latest study on process modelling tools, the Germany-based leading Business Application Research Center BARC awarded ARIS the best ranking - a gold seal. According to the report: "All required criteria of application support for model administration, standard notation, and sophistication of the methods, collaboration and model analysis could be fulfilled completely by ARIS."*
