I was informed that ARIS Express was a very weak tool with not many options for modeling. Yesterday was the first time I worked on ARIS Express, and it was love at first sight. And looking at the filer options, I find that IDS was kind enough to provide a wide scope of modeling possibilities to even encourage the giant called "ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTURE MODELING".



I took it upon as a challenge to prove to those critics of ARIS Express, that anything is possible by it, if we apply ourselves. Enterprise architecture is a very collaborative effort, which involves effort from many contributors. Providing a license to all contributor is too expensive and also an inhibitor to ARIS adoption. I find the use of ARIS Express for information collection a wonderful option to do away with other inefficient modeling tools.



I have tried to map the entire content model of IAF/TOGAF using ARIS Express. Please send me your feedback, critics and comments. I will add some examples for those who are not too aware of enterprise architecture modeling, but please send in a request.

Hi Kris,

thank you very very much for this great contest entry! It is really great to see people giving ARIS Express a fair test drive!

How should we handle your submitted models? Do you want that they appear as a single entry in the official poll or do you want every model you submitted as a single entry? What do you prefer?

Hey Sebastian,

I was in hurry (it being a friday evening), and I could not find an option to add all the models as a single entry. if you are able to do the same, please go ahead.

Hey Kris,

you have done everything correctly, because there is no way to upload several models as one entry. But we will present them as a single entry in the poll during voting.

Good luck!

For those who are not too familar with enterprise architecture modeling, I am adding a sample model next to the meta - model to make it more interesting.

Kind regards,
