2c8 Apps
Visualize the business to develop, streamline and manage your working methods with graphic models
About 2c8 Apps
2c8 Apps is a business modeling suite from Swedish company 2c8 Business Solutions that lets organizations map, analyze, and develop their processes and structure with graphical models — from the overall level down to the details. Models with connected documents, roles, and routines are published straight to a browser-based portal, giving employees an always-updated hub for job descriptions, policies, and working methods on desktop, tablet, or mobile. It is widely used as the foundation for ISO-certified management systems, process mapping, risk analysis, and change management.
Pros & Cons

- Strong embedded methodology support makes correct modeling accessible to non-experts
- Web publication turns models into an always-available management system for all employees

Cons

- Some users find the tool clunky and long-winded for certain tasks
- Word-format document exports can be hard to format and need manual cleanup
- Information modeling lacks a comprehensive IT-architecture view
- Modeling client is installed software; only the published portal is fully in-browser
