This is to inform you that we just uploaded ARIS Express 2.1 to our servers. Most of the new or improved features were already announced some weeks ago, but here a short recap:
- improved link handling
- improved BPMN 2 support
- real time online support
- new objects "process interface" and "location"
- ordinary setup as default installation method for Windows users
If you already installed ARIS Express and are connect to the Internet, you only need to start the tool and it will update itself while you are working with it. For new users or people without an Internet connection, we now provide a download package of ARIS Express, which installs ARIS Express automatically on Microsoft Windows based systems.
We also now got a nice poster showing you the most important modeling constructs available in ARIS Express.
Make sure to spread the word about this new ARIS Express release to all your colleagues, fellows and friends!

Thank you very much to provide us with the location and especially the process interface symbols ! Waooo, it was so much expected here !!!...
Amazingly, I don't get an automatic upgrade from 2.0 to 2.1, although I am using Java 1.60-14.
Shall I upgrade my Java run-time? Thanks !
Hi,
no, updating your JRE should not be possible. With 1.6.0_14, the update is done in background. This might take some time (watch CPU usage), so just leave Express open for a while, that should be sufficient.
Bye,
Frank
Thanks. I am now running 2.1... The offline installer works great.
Just a few comments on the new poster (great idea): please swap the Role and Person symbols and legends in the Org. Chart, swap IT System and Domain in System Landscape, and display the full text in the Business Process objects. This poster is excellent and very helpful when we promote the use of Express.
Bgrds,
Hi Thierry,
about the issues in the poster: You were too fast for us :-) We just started a thread about how to improve the poster. But I noted your comments and we will keep them in mind while updating the poster.
Thanks for your input!
Ok, an update of the poster is now available fixing the bugs you found. Thanks for reporting!
Hi Peter,
please uninstall by clearing the webstart cache completely using the Java Panel und reinstall.
Please check also, if there is enough space for the java cache.
Bye,
Frank
