ARIS
ARIS · Saarbrücken, Germany · founded 1992
What it is
ARIS connects process design with execution data to represent how an organization operates, combining business process management, process mining, and AI capabilities. Its Process Mining reconstructs flows from system event data, showing performance, bottlenecks, and deviations from designed processes; it can compare actual executions with intended processes and pull event logs from SAP, Salesforce, and ServiceNow. ARIS Simulation supports browser-based BPMN, eBPMN, and EPC simulations, with comparisons of time, cost, throughput, and service performance across scenarios. ARIS also provides process context—processes, rules, roles, and systems—to help organizations design, deploy, and improve enterprise AI agents. Documentation covers cloud editions and on-premise server installations. The Trust Center lists materials including ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27017, ISO/IEC 27018, SOC 2, SOC 3, and HIPAA; some documents require a valid point of contact to request access. ARIS states that it provides 24/7 support for security concerns. Pricing is on request, and prospective customers are directed to book a demo. The company says it was founded in 1992 and became independent in 2025.
