Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."Recently, we added Appian Process Mining, Appian Portals, and now Appian RPA."
"Appian also has very flexible local integration."
"It has good integrations. We were looking for out-of-the-box integration with both on-prem and publicly accessible data sources. We needed integration with the cloud, OData, our REST API feed, and then on-prem passthrough to go to a SQL database or on-prem APIs through Azure local deployment, etc."
"Form building capabilities and well thought out process modelling are key points to this product."
"I find the BPM the most valuable feature."
"The product's most valuable feature is the low code aspect of development. We can develop an end-to-end VPN solution using a single platform."
"Even with an on-premise implementation, the scalability is still high, so it is easy to scale up."
"With low-code, we don't need a lot of coding, and then from the plumbing perspective, there is a complete CI/CD pipeline that exists within Appian that can be leveraged for open deployment."
"The main factor that separates Red Hat software from Oracle, IBM, Pegasystems, is the ability that it gives you to design the screens outside the software and connect it as another component with the BPM engine."
"The reporting is not as good as in similar products. They could also improve the dashboards."
"The tool itself is pretty good, but the main area that we struggled with was the backend. The frontend development is really good, but the backend modeling can be streamlined a little bit. There are good integrations, but tying them through the data layer and then up into the frontend could be improved a little bit. It does read/write on the data source, and you can configure it to just write or just read, but there is a little bit of work involved."
"Appian is easy to set up, but JBoss is complex. JBoss is the application server for running Appian."
"Appian could improve their customer-facing initiatives."
"I would like to see more complete university tools. For example, with UiPath, I have had a good experience related to a free course in order to provide some users some different levels of knowledge. This extra training helps users not only use the solution but to develop further within the tool."
"It is also not easy to learn. Training tutorials could be improved."
"There could be a scope of enhancement for capturing the variety of use cases."
"Form creation and SAIL proprietary language still basically require programming. The claim a BA type can do everything is hogwash."
"I think the documentation for the tool, the official documentation, is not as strong as in other tools. You have lot of community. That is good. But sometimes you need - when you are working on a big client or a critical process - to be certain about certain things. So I think that the documentation for the tool, from the company, could be a little stronger."
