Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect

It provides several capabilities needed to generate high-level and low-level designs within the solution development process.

Still setting the standards for capturing architecture, been a user for over a decade and would highly recommend

I spend my days trying to overcome the obstacles with this product in order to produce information architecture, i.e. data models and conceptual models. It doesn't support data modellering and others cannot easily get access to my work. This is not at all adequate and therefore lots of time is wasted on workarounds.

SPARX is a great tool to use as the typical Reference Library for an EA implementation. I evaluated a number of products before landing on this one. They are the most extensible, and assisted us in migrating our old Rational Software Architect and Rational system architect drawings into SPARX in exactly 2 weeks. Over 1000 diagrams were successfully migrated - hands free - with their ModelFlow application. Additionally, it has all the features we were eager to get - User based role protection, diagramming, dramatic extensibility, and the ability to configure the SPARX library to hold any attribution we desired with all aspects of the data management - from Capabilities, to Vendors to Applications. Additionally, since it's a relational database, we were able to link it up with Tableau and create great reports for our business partners day 1. We have used it for the past 5 years and just entered into a new 5 year contract.

Quick and efficient responses to queries. The product itself suits our purposes.
