Pros: 1. It reduces technical debt and accelerates a smooth transition, while harmonizing across data migration regions which replaces the legacy customization that are not for S4/HANA. 2. It cuts operational cost by 30% - 40% and improves SLA adherence, while process intelligence identifies duplicate or redundant approval steps when we know SAP ecosystems ties all modules together for better data insights. Cons: 1. Complicated and costly for small businesses. 2. Mature process required for better data feeding and data insights. 3. If non-SAP system data feed might cause misleading and incomplete data insights

As per the current market and the line of products that are available for content and document management system, Alfresco is a very good option compared to other systems in terms of features and cost.

We see strong potential in SAP Signavio, especially for value-led transformation, S/4HANA readiness, and strengthening our process advisory capabilities. As we expand certifications and build delivery experience, we expect Signavio to become a core part of our consulting and implementation model.
At the same time, our current usage is still growing, and broader internal adoption, automation maturity, and integration with delivery workflows are required to unlock its full value. With continued roadmap advancement and improved enablement support, this score could increase significantly in the near future.

The UI is very intuitive, most of our users figure out how to use the platform by themselves, so there's not much training needed.

You can upload files by using the web drag and drop, WebDAV, FTP, and more.

Most of the platform already works as-is so you can just deploy it using Docker and it's mostly ready to go.

SAP Signavio Process Transformation Suite offers a modern interface, intuitive modeling experience, and strong collaboration features that make it fairly easy to adopt, especially for users familiar with business process terminology. The availability of SAP Best Practice content and templates helps accelerate process discovery and modeling, reducing the learning curve for transformation teams.
However, as we expand into more advanced use cases such as process mining, benchmark analytics, and integration with SAP systems, the usability becomes more complex and requires deeper expertise. Some capabilities still require multi-step configuration, and there is noticeable variation in maturity across modules. New users may need additional onboarding to navigate the ecosystem effectively and understand dependencies between components like Process Manager, Process Intelligence, and Journey Modeler.
We also see opportunities for enhancing guided workflows, automation of repetitive tasks, and tighter UX alignment between different Signavio tools to make the experience more seamless.
Overall, the suite is powerful and well-designed but continues to evolve as SAP enhances its capabilities. With improvements in user onboarding, harmonized interface elements, and more embedded guidance from AI, we expect the usability rating to increase over time as adoption scales.

Training is taking way longer than expected. We have had more than 50 hours of training and still do not feel proficient enough to do anything meaningful with Process Intelligence. The Process Insights are pretty intuitive but does take a willingness to dig in and explore, but in general good right out of the box.
