Enterprise Architect

Enterprise Architect is a graphical modelling tool for teams designing business processes, IT systems and software. It supports the whole life cycle, from early requirements through to testing and maintenance.

What Enterprise Architect offers

• Open-standard modelling — UML, SysML, BPMN and other standards for describing systems.
• Requirements management — traces high-level specifications through analysis, design, implementation, test and maintenance models.
• Model simulation — runs behavioural models using triggers, with guards and effects written in JavaScript and breakpoints for stepping through decisions.
• Reporting and documentation — built-in output for sharing a common view of the design.
• Team collaboration — a shared model repository with version control and cloud-based servers for distributed teams.

Who it works with

Teams in business and IT systems, software and systems engineering, and real-time and embedded development.
