Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Abacus Let me model all my IT Infrastructure, Applications and interfaces, Capabilities and Processes. Web based, I can create dashboards for the Stakeholders and management. Very comfortable tool, easy to use once you understand the concept The RSP (rapid start program) is very helpful and let you get products very quickly I can model anything and create my organization's metamodel

Cons

  • Long learning curve, but it is totally worth it. The web tool can have more features.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • BizzDesign members are involved with Archimate definition. So Archimate visual modelling support is ok.

Cons

  • UI is old fashioned and usability is bad. There are a lot of flaws in the tool regarding usability and functionalty. It is tedious to even create simple reports. In most cases you need to create a script with the BizzDesign specific scripting language, which does not have a community or technical state of the arte dev tools like intelissense or even debugging. Reports like matrix views are publishes as image, so now filtering for end useres in their publication tool Horizzon. So nearly not usable. Support of other model languages than Archimate is even less supported. In ERD you not even have a layout functionality. Any state of the art integrations like cloud stencils are missing. Import/export with Excel is tedious and SQL import not fully implemented.
