Are you looking for an overview of all the ARIS Editions? Let me give you an overview what it’s all about.
First there are the Business Process Analysis editions or short BPA editions. They help you to design your business AS-IS, define TO-BE processes and create WHAT-IF scenarios. You can start your business process management journey with them and grow as you need. Over time you can add more functions, more users, more use cases and finally build a very sophisticated Enterprise Management System.
There are three different BPA editions to meet the different requirements and maturity levels:
ARIS Basic (formerly ARIS Elements), ARIS Advanced and ARIS Enterprise
ARIS Basic - Your start into the Business Process Analysis world
Second there are the Process Mining editions. These editions help you to measure how your processes are really executed. You can use the results to compare your business reality with the designed TO-BE scenarios. This makes it very easy for you to identify if your operations run like they should and also to find further improvement potential.
ARIS Process Mining is also available in three different editions:
ARIS Process Mining Basic (formerly ARIS Process Mining Elements), ARIS Process Mining Advanced and ARIS Process Mining Enterprise

I hope you find this overview helpful! If you need further information, please get in touch.
I sometimes struggle with the packages/modules/... that we have in place. I lack a bit of transparency. Thus, it would be great, if e.g. the About Box would contain such information.
I would appreciate if there was an overview which is automatically generated like:

This would help me to better understand which functionalities we have, which we don't and which ones might be interesting to request.
The best currently available workaround for new features per ARIS version are our feature presenation and feature fact sheets. Both to be found for the most recent feature-rich ARIS version in this post: ARIS 10 SR 14 deep dive information series
For older ARIS versions we've published them as well:
And on every ARIS DVD you may also find the PDF document ARIS Functional Product Matrix where new features are highlighted in tables per products/licenses/components.
I hope this helps for the moment.
An all-time ARIS version table along with its new products and features I can't come up with. But I am going to check with our ARIS Product Marketing team whether we could make that available publicly.
