Excellent task manager software - supports both management and workflow
Excellent task manager software - supports both management and workflow. Time tracking is available and much used in our firm. Integration with Microsoft Outlook is also a great feature, along with the ability to access from mobile. Being able to use Comindware Tracker for common processes or standalone tasks for crucial in our decision to test the software. The software is flexible and computer-novice friendly, making training required minimal and efficient to implement.

User experience reveals stability and easy deployment, though improvements in integration options are needed
We are still working with DataPower Gateway with IBM solutions, but they will move to webMethods from DataPower, IBM. We still use IBM FileNet for the FileNet. We have already integrated IBM Case Foundation with IBM Content Management and are using IBM Content Navigator as an interface in Content Engine and Content Management for lifecycle documents. I do not use analytics for operational insights. We work in banking, but not in healthcare. Currently, my customers are using it on-premises, and security-wise it is fine. For Saudi Arabia, 300 users represent a medium business. I recommend IBM Case Foundation; it is the best in BPM solutions, and I support it. It is the best because it has stability, very good stability. IBM has good stability, and performance-wise it is also easy for deployment. From the GUI, you can make many changes, and it is low code; we did not write much code because the BPM design is a very good solution. My total rating for IBM Case Foundation is 8.5 out of 10.
