How to evaluate Enterprise Architecture

This is how the CIOPages Research Team evaluates this category. It is not an assessment of Sparx Systems. It comes from our Enterprise Architecture Tools buyer guide.

25%
Application & Technology Portfolio
Application and technology inventory, lifecycle and end-of-life tracking, business-capability mapping, cost roll-ups and TIME/business-fit scoring, and surfacing of redundancy and rationalization candidates
25%
Integration & Data Freshness
Native CMDB/CSDM reconciliation, cloud-account and tagging discovery, ITSM/FinOps/delivery-tool connectors, survey automation with reminders and ownership, an open API, and how the tool keeps facts current without manual re-entry
20%
Architecture Modeling & Standards
ArchiMate, TOGAF, UML, BPMN and SysML coverage as your method requires, metamodel customization, viewpoint and layer management, and the balance between modeling rigor and approachability for non-modelers
15%
Transformation & Roadmap Planning
Roadmapping, gap analysis, target-state and scenario modeling, migration-wave sequencing, dependency-aware impact analysis, and capability-based investment views leadership can actually read
10%
Stakeholder Access & Collaboration
Read-only and contributor experiences for people outside the EA team, self-service dashboards and curated views, role-based access, and whether business owners will realistically open it — the truest test of shelfware risk
5%
Governance, AI & Extensibility
Architecture-review and standards-compliance workflows, audit trail and change history, AI assistants grounded in your live repository (not generic), reporting and export, and configurability without a permanent admin team
