I have created an account and applied for the student version. I was sent a link to enter data and proceed with a 0.00 euro checkout; however, after I entered all of the data and accepted all of the terms, a loading screen appeared that won't stop for ages. Any solution for this?

Having the same issue here! I created my account and applied for the student version, received the checkout link (0.00 EGP), and entered all the required data while accepting the terms. But once I hit submit, I got stuck on an endless loading screen that won’t go away.
I tried repeating the registration process, following the suggestion from her Klemens Hauk, but no luck—still the same looping loading screen. Has anyone found a fix for this? Would really appreciate any insights!

Maybe anyone from the @ARIS Company can help.
Is there anybody here in in the Community, who registered successfully in the last time? Some guesses: Are you using your university mail adress? You should have an open Internet access during registration, no VPN.

Thanks for your input, Klemens!
I registered using only my university email throughout the entire process, and I’m not using VPN or any similar tools. (Actually tried using another device, yet the same problem appearedInterestingly, after about 50 minutes, I received an email stating that I left my cart open and didn’t proceed with checkout. However, when I clicked the "Continue Shopping" link, I ended up facing the same endless loading screen issue.
Side Note: Also, I wanted to take this opportunity to ask—does ARIS really have a tough learning curve compared to other tools? Some of my colleagues and faculty members have mentioned this, and I’d love to hear your perspective on it. -

Without knowing in detail what you want to learn, I can say, that ARIS is one of the leading tools to support BPM (Business Process Management). It supports mainly the design and modelling phase but also can be used in the monitoring and optimization phase. You have >100 model types to model the business in different hierarchy levels starting e.g. with value added chains, function diagrams, process landscapes, ending with organization charts, EPC and BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) models for detailed modeling of business processes. But also more strategic modeling e.g. with Balanced Scorecards, SIPOC is supported, and technical modeling e.g. with ArchiMate, class diagrams, UML, ERM.
You also can learn how to use an object repository, lifecycle management, collaboration as part of governance. The administration part includes the customization (create new or adapt model types) and scripting for evaluations (report and macros).
So this is a very short and for sure incomplete description of the functionality of ARIS. Please ask me, if you or your lecturer need more help.

PS: I just checked the ARIS university page. The student version is only "ARIS Basic". This version has unfortunately only a "basic" functionality, mainly to learn BPMN modeling. What I described above is the functionality of the version "ARIS Advanced". This is also available free of charge as "ARIS for faculties".

Thanks for the detailed explanation, Mr. Klemens!
As an Industrial and Service Engineering student, we frequently work with BPMN protocol and UML for modeling and simulation. ARIS has recently caught my interest, though I’ve observed it’s more commonly used in government agencies and larger private corporations, rather than in academic environments.
In contrast, Ca*undA and locally hosted BPMN solutions seem to be the go-to choices among scholars and academics for business process modeling. Perhaps I’ve overlooked some of ARIS’s adoption in the private sector, but I assume cost is a major factor when comparing these tools.
How do you think ARIS competes in terms of accessibility and affordability compared to other BPM solutions? Also, as a graduating student, would you recommend investing time in mastering the ARIS stack (Basic vs. Advanced), or is it wiser to focus on the tools readily available to me at each stage of my career?
Excuse me if my questions seem basic or inadequate—I’m just trying to better understand the best BPM stack to develop for my future toolkit as an ISEM engineer.
Would love to hear your thoughts!
