I recently was asked by a customer if I know of any free process modeling and automation tools. This got me thinking of how many vendors provide a free edition of their software for unlimited use i.e. no trial basis or try before you buy editions. After some research I came up with the following short list:
Free BPM and Process Modeling Tools:
- BizAgi Process Modeler
 - Questetra BPM Suite
 - Tibco Business Studio
 - Aris Express (soon to be released)
 - Process Maker
 - Open ModelSphere
 - Visual Paradigm – Smart Development Environment (Community Edition)
 - Visual Paradigm for UML (Community Edition)
 I have not evaluated each application so could not comment on their strengths and weaknesses but would be interested to hear about other free BPM and/or Enterprise Architecture tools so I can add them to my resource list.

An interesting list. Also some good additions in the comments. Worth a quick look.
