CWA SmartProcess is our tool for knowledge management focussing on business processes. All our processes are mapped in this tool, it is a key part of our Quality management system and is esential for our ISO 9001 certification including the recent transition to the newest standard.

Pros

The tool is very flexible, easy to use and pretty straightforward. It can easily be customized and provides a very good overview about all our processes.

Cons

Some users were struggling a bit when using the process explorer to design processes, but this could be solved rather quick.

It helped us to totally improve our quality management system and process organization.

Pros

I like the new front-end that came along with the update in June 2018. Especially the document management system is very handy and simplifies my job in the quality department.

Cons

There are periods when the software is somewhat slowly. A few features are missing, like some field functions to readout ALL information you want into your documents.

Pros

The process modelling is intuitive and helpful in both the design period and for users. The customisation options give a plenty of flexibility. Document management options are easy to use and great for organising controlled documents.

Cons

It is not always easy to find the correct settings that you need to change and the workflow management takes time to get used to.

Empfehle die Software jedem weiter - Top Produkt.
Manche Sachen - insbesondere bei Konzernusern - könnten noch verbessert werden (z.B. RASCI Report, Sprachfelder).

Pros

Der Freigabeworkflow für Prozesse und Dokumente inkl. Mergefields und Information an die User. Die Maßnahmenverfolgung, das Audittool. Der Support ist Spitze und auch der feste Ansprechpartner, der Details des Unternehmens und der Einstellungen kennt, löst schnell Probleme. Support nimmt Verbesserungsvorschläge auf und setzt nach Möglichkeit im nächsten Update auch um.

Cons

Die Prozessdesigner müssen auf wenige Personen eingegrenzt sein, ansonsten werden die Swimlanes nicht richtig wiederverwendet und die User nicht sauber zugeordnet.
In Konzernstrukturen sollte man die Sprachen bei der Implementierung festlegen, später wird es aufwendig.
Bei manchen Softwareeinstellungen ist das Verständnis am Anfang wichtig, ansonsten richtet man Dinge falsch ein, die aufwendig korrigiert werden müssen.

Gute Software mit einigen Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten

Reviewed on 7/15/2020

Solide. Verbesserungsfähig. Aber marktfähig. Guter Kundensupport!

Solide. Verbesserungsfähig. Aber marktfähig. Guter Kundensupport!

Pros

Design (klar, strukturiert, ansprechend, modern)
Funktionsumfang in Standardvariante (ausreichend für "normales" QM)
Pricing (v.a. Zusatzmodule zu attraktiven Preisen)
Kundensupport bzw. Erstkontakt v.a. im Anschaffungsprozess war gut (nicht zu viel, nicht zu wenig; andere Firmen hatten zu starke Follow-ups mit mehreren E-Mails pro Monat, in denen nachgefragt wurde, ob man sich schon für die Software entschieden hat)

Cons

- Wenig technische Dokumentation (Einrichtung/Anbindung ActiveDirectory könnte ausführlicher beschrieben werden)
- Teilweise fehlen in der Software an Stellen Funktionen, die wo anders enthalten sind (z.B. Texteditor wie bei Prozessmodellierung wäre auch bei Katalogen, v.a. Rollenkatalog, sehr sinnvoll)
- genauere Beschreibung der Nutzerverwaltung/Rechtezuweisungen wäre wünschenswert. Das ist für Erstanwender bzw. -administratoren zu rudimentär
- man könnte etwas weiter denken, z.B. bei der Benennung der AD-Berechtigungsprofile (in einem mittleren Unternehmen AD-Gruppen mit der einfachen Bezeichnung "Viewer" anzulegen, ist ungut, da diese AD-Gruppen-Bezeichnungen auch Nachwirkungen in anderen Systemen haben könnten. Besser wäre es, sie z.B. "CWA_Viewer" nennen zu können, um Überschneidungen zu vermeiden.
