The core product suite today provides solutions addressing generic business process improvement, six sigma, lean, quality and risk management, compliance as well as IT service management and enterprise architecture.

Having been acquired by Corel, the former Micrografx graphics product line (e.g. Micrografx Picture Publisher, Micrografx Designer) were integrated into the Corel portfolio. The iGrafx division is now globally known as a vendor of software for business process modeling, analysis, simulation and optimization and is considered as one of the global market leaders[3]. More than 1 million licences have been shipped worldwide.
