Speedy onboarding, usability

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Time-to-Value is very short. Main factor: outstanding usability/user experience

What do you dislike most about this product?

Although it has integration capabilitites onboard, LeanIX has potential in order to offer professional integration services. Integration with PPM, Process Integration, SAP etc. does only make sense if there is a straightforward semantic concept behind.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

First invest into PoC by using the most important project context of the current and the next fiscal year.
