ARIS vs ProDiscovery

ARIS combines business process management, process mining, and AI in an environment that connects process designs with execution data. ARIS Process Mining reconstructs flows from event data, showing performance, bottlenecks, and deviations from designed processes; it can ingest logs from SAP, Salesforce, and ServiceNow. ARIS Simulation runs browser-based BPMN, eBPMN, and EPC scenarios and compares time, cost, throughput, and service performance. Its digital-twin process context describes processes, rules, roles, and systems for designing, deploying, and improving enterprise AI agents. APIs can let third-party systems create, read, update, and manage ARIS information, although API licenses may be required. Documentation covers cloud editions and on-premise server installations, giving the platform a hybrid deployment model. The Trust Center lists ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27017, ISO/IEC 27018, SOC 2, SOC 3, HIPAA, and other materials; some documents require a valid point of contact. ARIS says it was founded in 1992 and became independent in 2025. Pricing is available on request after contacting sales.

ProDiscovery analyzes process records, customer behavior, and other digital traces to map and simulate business processes. It accepts long-form logs with Case, Activity, and Timestamp columns, supplied in CSV or TXT files or imported from databases. The product analyzes collected data rather than collecting event logs itself. Its process analysis includes BPMN models, more than 30 chart types, process comparisons, and a customizable interface. Funnel analysis tracks conversion, drop-off points, and time by customer-journey stage; Variant Flow Analysis uses Sankey charts to show flow direction, size, and sequence relationships. Predictive monitoring applies AI and machine-learning models to process and real-time data to estimate flows, remaining time, delays, and anomalies. PiDi can summarize analysis, explain chart insights in natural language, and suggest visualizations or database queries through chat. ProDiscovery is web-based, supports Windows and macOS through compatible browsers, and is also offered on-premise. Cloud and on-premise pricing are available by inquiry; trial applications are manually reviewed and may take time.
