Pros
"AgilePoint's most valuable feature is process management.""The initial setup of AgilePoint was very easy.""The solution's workflows are its most useful feature.""I like the design and the integration capacity.

More AgilePoint Pros →

"It performs the basic tasks that are required for the BBM solution as part of the overall integration with ECM or enterprise contact management.""The most valuable feature is automation, which is quite strong and we are quite happy with it.""This product is tightly integrated with the RPA automation process.""IBM Business Automation Workflow is stable because the different infrastructure elements, such as the OS and middleware have been used for a long time.""IBM has spent a lot of time on the connections between the rules engine and its other product, the core BPM platform. They've really centralized the suite as one offering now.""No matter what somebody's technical experience level is, the tool can start adding value immediately. Even if that is just an analyst who doesn't have any technical background, they can use some of these no quote accelerators to get things from ideation to deployment in a matter of minutes.""The dashboards are helpful because you can display reports directly on your screen.""It has integrated UI and deployment models, and it has a deep set of consultant and service provider ecosystem features."

Cons
"The solution should be able to support Docker. This would help make scalability easier.""It could be more flexible, but it's already a good solution for the designer.""While the platform is good and it has a lot of options, I would like to see more alternative features in future versions such as connectors to IDM. Currently, they have only ADFS and Okta.""They should add more information about functionality.""Some issues with AgilePoint's design, AI and UX are some of the major problems we deal with when handling our company's business models or processes."

More AgilePoint Cons →

"Every client is moving to the cloud. We are still a little behind with IBM, but we are catching up from my point of view.""I would definitely like to see a unified interface between the BPM side of the house and the case side of the house. Something that just seems a bit more cohesive, because right now there is sort of a disconnect between the BPM and the case side of the house. That makes it a bit of a hard sell sometimes. That is definitely first and foremost on my wish list.""The setup and installation process could be made easier.""In terms of improvement, it could be less complex.""IBM Business Automation Workflow could improve the integration.""Improvements could be made in debugging and troubleshooting.""The main improvement would be to make it easier to implement and deploy so that customers can kick it off and run quickly.""Sometimes, we feel like we are not getting the full features of the content management capabilities."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I believe the pricing has changed recently. We had purchased one license per server, and it was about $2,000. It was a one-time payment. It's possible that they have recently implemented a new cost structure and now have yearly subscriptions."
  • "I think the price is reasonable."
  • "Price-wise, AgilePoint is a cheap tool and a standard application for running analytics in an IT environment."
  • "It is more cost-effective than local tools."
  • More AgilePoint Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The solution has saved us time."
  • "There is still a relatively high total cost of ownership to actually implement, support, and stand up solutions."
  • "Nowadays, clients are looking at pricing as one of the major factors. For IBM products, they always think it is expensive for them. We are still educating our clients on the IBM FlexPoints licensing."
  • "When you compare with Laserfiche and M-Files, IBM is expensive."
  • "Licensing varies by use-case."
  • "IBM Business Automation Workflow has a flexible pricing mode, but the price is expensive. The price of the solution reflects the quality of the solution which is very high. The technical support is an additional cost."
  • "Our license is on a three-year term."
  • "It is on the expensive side, but it provides excellent supportability and an ecosystem that is proven to be a great fit for our organization."
