ARIS - SHARE YOUR IDEAS
Since working in a more virtual environment modellers in our organisation have transitioned to using Miro to gather process information from SMEs & subsequently build process flows.
We are encouraging modellers to use ARIS as our sole tool for creating & storing process information.
However, we are being met with some pushback, as ARIS isn't as collaborative, as some of the other tooling that is available (e.g. Miro & Google Slides).
It would be ideal if multiple users could be in a model at once, to add post-its, comments & contributions to a model, whilst working virtually. This would save modellers rework, as they would no longer need to take out of one tool & copy the information into ARIS.
We are aware of the collaboration feature with adding comments, but users find this quite clunky to use. It would be great if commenters could also have the ability to add post-it style notes to a model, without the ability to edit the objects & relationships on the model itself.
Are these ideas perhaps on the roadmap for future release or something that is recorded for future consideration?
I would like to endorse Leanne's argument: For attendees of any kind conceptual, creative workshop session ARIS is considered as a setback to their flow. So too often results are either not digitally recorded or with tools like Microsoft's Whiteboard in Teams.
A concurrent modeling feature was introduced in October 2023 by Scheer Group for their Business Modeler. So it should not be impossible to have on the ARIS platform.
In addition, we would like to have multiple users edit models at the same time, similar to SharePoint or ServiceNow.
