Recommendations to others considering the product:
My recommendation certainly, if you are even considering Signavio as an option, is to get in touch with them and allow them to show you the functionality and potential the system can have within your firm. No amount of reviews can communicate the scope of the tool and the range of benefits it along with it's partners, can bring you. Go to the source, see it in action and get your questions answered by the professionals
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
At a large organisation, natural behaviour, logistics and specialised skill sets can lead to business areas working in silos and hindering transparency and communication across the company. Signavio helps us to break down these barriers and make each area's processes visible to the wider business, showing them what happens and who to go to should they need to make contact.
It helps with the day-to-day running of operations, increases everyone's knowledge of their own company and facilitates change at a far greater rate than ever before. It also helps us to promote consistency across the firm and get everyone talking the same process language as well as easily being able to comment on specific areas of processes using the functionality within the system.
