An orchestration tool to automate the end-to-end process with a need to improve its user experience

In BMC TrueSight Orchestration, login is just text-based, so it's really hard to find the problem. We cannot see the ongoing running jobs or interfere with them on an interface. So it's unavailable. There are some restrictions about the permissions, especially the level of the permissions, even though there is not very much there. It's a little bit hard to use clients' development tools, so the user experience may be improved. There is room for improvement for the local team.

Straightforward interface and user-friendly

There are a lot of apps in K2, but what I really found that needs improvement is the management section of K2, especially the management server and the admin page where you can manage processes, add users, set security fees, and add licenses. The reason for this is because the part that is the section of administration, particularly the management called rows, has multiple rules, as many as you want. For instance, you may have around 200 rules, and when you view them, only the first ten are displayed, and you have to click next to see the next ten and so on until you get to the hundredth rule. On that page, as of today, we only have what we call to fetch, where you can search for a particular rule you're looking for, or else you have to keep clicking until you get to the final page you want. So that's a bit challenging.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"We can implement compliance standards with the solution. You can also do patching so that the environment is compliant and secure from external threats and hacking. We can provision multiple systems with the help of predefined templates that the organization has forwarded us. The solution’s users can also integrate multiple products which can be either BMC or non-BMC. There are numerous possibilities that can be done with server automation"

"The initial setup is easy. The deployment was done in an hour."

"This solution is scalable."

"We particularly like the integration functionality of this solution. This product is open API, which means that it can be integrated with any solution from any other brand."

"The best feature of BMC TrueSight Orchestration is the number of integrated mechanisms it provides."

"The product has a very good triggering mechanism."

"I find the provisioning to be the most valuable."

"The automation helps in payment transactions through BHIM app. The BMC helps in smooth clearance of all payments without using MasterCard or Visa. The solution is ready to use, and there is no need for customization or resources. We can complete integration over cloud and on-premise, and even using mainframes. The automation are secure through BMC TrueSight Orchestration."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration pros

"It provides data accuracy with fewer failures."

"NWC forms could be better. Also, the ability to build workflows that are not dependent on SharePoint is very desirable. The forms feature just isn’t as functional as the forms for SharePoint."

"K2's best feature is that it can solve complex tasks, issues, and projects with little coding."

"It has a lot of features for creating and managing workflows, as well as for integrating with other applications. Nintex offers features, particularly to ensure a user-friendly experience."

"It has integration with BI and Analytics tools, and RPA toolsets as well."

"The solution helped us automate several processes we used to do manually."

"It's easy to learn. However, there is very little content available for the Nintex also, but they are providing their own documentation and all. So, it's easy to learn also."

"The latest version of Nintex has many features. We have a clear roadmap and the necessary application to integrate it into our platform."

Cons

"Regarding scalability, the architecture does not allow you to add additional servers just able to use two application servers, so it's not scalable."

"It would be helpful if TrueSight could log errors in a better format. I would also like to see more connector support. Let's say I have a third-party vendor that I need to integrate with Ansible. It would be helpful if BMC announced a specific connector for that. I've encountered situations where I need to work with scripts or find another way to integrate a particular product with TrueSight Orchestration. BMC already supports many products. For example, we have a connector for Ansible, but I think it needs to be improved some."

"The solution should move to the cloud. Every application from the BMC is on the container and moving to the cloud. There is also a number of limitations for the smart reporting feature of the TrueSight server which is not working in sync. We did not get any satisfactory reply from BMC on that note. We are not able to do the real-time sync between HSA and non-HSA service reporting tools and the actual application tools."

"We are aiming for AI automation and look for support from BMC. The features are currently missing but we are hoping for some upgrade in this matter."

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration is difficult to understand. It's not very user-friendly."

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration could improve by providing some visibility on how the workflows are progressing."

"The architecture of this solution needs improvement, it is very complicated. It creates a lot of problems in our environment. Most of the time I am trying to find and solve the problem."

"The solution is not user-friendly."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration cons

"The solution needs more RPA and AI features."

"We would like to have access to an on-premises solution. In our country, we have a relationship with Central Bank of Egypt, which do noes not allow cloud solutions to be used. They should offer an on-prem solution with a flexible price license."

"The product’s support for the mobile platform and its ability to handle artificial loads could be better."

"Difficult to include external partners with the solution deployed on-premise."

"Nintex is still at the starting point of integrating with AI. It has integrated with a very small piece of artificial intelligence., like only integrated with the Google Cloud. There is a benefit, like a no-code and low-code solution. But, again, if you are a developer, especially if you are a hardcore developer, you are using your code knowledge, its skills, and all. And, suddenly, you are moving into the low-code solution, and then you will feel, like, so many things you can't achieve with the low-code solution."

"The security features for this solution need to be improved."

"The solution does not integrate with many platforms."

"I would also like to see the BPM features from Pega implemented, that have to do with the implementation of AI, and the robotics."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing, it comes with the package when you buy the server automation. But it's made depending on some agreements for companies, of which I don't know the clause."

"Licensing is available in different ways and depends on data being consumed by users and nodes being operated."

"Licensing is per lot, or per agent — one agent is one license."

"There is a huge cost saving with BMC TrueSight compared to other solutions."

"Nintex Workflow is more expensive than Microsoft's native products, but it is still considered moderately priced when compared to higher-end products such as K2."

"Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."

"The enterprise version has some additional features that I would like to use, but the price is not fair."

"Our maintenance costs are reduced."

"Comparatively, it's expensive."

"For the initial hundred users, the cost is $21,000 per year, which I find too high."

"Prices for licenses of K2 are high."

"The product’s price is competitive compared to other vendors."
