Has reliable technical support and good stability

From my experience using Bosch, I would recommend it to somebody considering it. I would rate it an eight out of ten. There are better solutions on the market. To make it a perfect ten, they should improve the price. There is a learning curve and sometimes there are issues from the software.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We contact their customer support often. They are very good and reliable."

"It helps develop applications very quickly. Once clients get used to it and familiar with the methodology, then they don't feel so locked in. It is able to add this element of agility to our clients' software development lifecycle. That is my favorite thing about it: You're not so locked in as you used to be when developing applications."

"Its interface is well-designed and user-friendly"

"It gives us the ability to create toolkits and use them across many different applications. It allows us to write things one time, instead of having to write a diary for every single different application. We can write at once and reuse it."

"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."

"IBM Business Automation Workflow is stable because the different infrastructure elements, such as the OS and middleware have been used for a long time."

"Productivity improvements are notable because processes have been orchestrated and streamlined with IBM Business Automation Workflow."

"This is a low-code software where you can just drag and drop on the user interface. There are also a lot of quality integrations such as TMS."

Cons

"There are better solutions on the market. To make it a perfect ten, they should improve the price. There is a learning curve and sometimes there are issues from the software."

"Improvements could be made in debugging and troubleshooting."

"One significant challenge is the lack of accessible forums or resources to seek help or information when problems arise."

"While everything is integrated into one platform, I'd like guidelines on when and how to use ODM. This applies not only to implementation but also to automation processes. Additionally, proper instructions should be provided when installing on the cloud."

"IBM Business Automation Workflow could be more intuitive, with more advanced low-code features and services definition."

"Integrating the solution with existing systems can be complicated and it needs careful planning and execution."

"The setup and installation process could be made easier."

"If the issue needs escalation to level two or level three, it can take time on a case-by-case basis."

"The SCADA Systems are very sophisticated and have a hard time integrating with our older scales. The technical support in regards to the partner side needs some improvement."

"Licensing varies by use-case."

"The solution has saved us time."

"While it can be quite costly, it offers significant benefits for users."
