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.

The solution enables automation of supply chain and invoice processing with comprehensive integration and workflow capabilities
The main valuable features of OpenText AppWorks are the BPM modules. There is the standard BPM modeler and a case modeler. These are two strong features from the workflow layer. Additionally, the integration capability of the solution is beneficial. With these features, we are able to use OpenText AppWorks for automating supply-chain-related problems, vendor process automations, and invoice automations. We have built almost twenty-plus types of solutions and implemented around three hundred fifty-plus implementations. The solution also allows us to integrate it with our ERP system.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Low code development."
"This software added transparency to our workflows. It helped with increasing throughput of clients and their satisfaction."
"The most valuable feature is that any non-technical personnel can easily work on the solution, redefining processes and creating drag and drop workflows according to the department or cross-department needs."
"The feature I have found most valuable is the easy synchronization with other tools."
"This solution can be useful for tracking the different stages of projects and the people working on them."
"It helps very well with project management, and the workflow process is very easy and fast."
"The best part is no coding is required, so it's extremely easy to understand and its usage with the non-technical team has reduced the need for commercial training of the workforce."
"It successfully routes hand-offs between different teams, adds transparency to workflows, and has a set of social collaboration tools."
"We've automated several processes, including purchase requisition to purchase orders, RFQ processes, vendor onboarding, project budgeting, and business case creation. The recent versions of OpenText AppWorks, especially those incorporating low-code functionalities, have had a significant positive impact. In some cases, we've observed a remarkable reduction in development time, ranging from 50 to 75 percent. The MTP model and life cycle have facilitated rapid development cycles."
"The stability has been perfect over the years; there are no bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, it's reliable, and the performance is good."
"OpenText AppWorks has standard features such as system-to-system and human-to-human integrations, but what I find most valuable in the solution is its monitoring feature that tells you more about your processes, how to restart and how to stop each process, etc."
"AppWorks is a very quick development platform with low-coding capability and strong integration with third-party systems."
"The monitoring aspect is highly valuable, as it offers an exceptional capability to track every minute of action performed by a business user in the global context."
"In terms of the scalability and the handling of complexity, the customers are satisfied, and we also have confidence in the solution to achieve whatever implementations are required."
"Its customer support is reliable and easy to approach."
"One of the most useful features is the code is customizable, we can make it our own."
 

Cons

"The initial setup seemed a bit complex, and there is no great documentation."
"The OpenAPI is good, but it is not enough. It lacks out-of-box integrations with popular web services."
"We are using the backdated version of this software. That is why we lack of some features. I hope when we update the version, then all the problems will be solved."
"The initial setup can be quite slow and finicky."
"It lacks workflow samples, which would make it even easier for non-technical users to build their own apps."
"It would be wonderful to have newer version releases more frequently, but it is quite a minor con."
"I would like them to offer a one-time payment plan that one can choose."
"There are not very many report templates, and if there were more, it would really help."
"AppWorks is pretty expensive."
"OpenText needs improvements in its integration model to align with newer integration types."
"The integration could improve."
"From an enterprise point, their pricing is a little bit crazy because they don't have a SaaS model."
"OpenText AppWork's low-code capabilities can be enhanced by integrating them with AI offerings like Aviator."
"The UI for the solution is complex, and it would be better to go for Openpath and Angular or use another BPM engine."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing structure."
"The solution needs to continue to enhance the low-coding feature within the product itself."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I benefit from this software by getting a variety of reporting options and features for a relatively low cost"
"Price per user works for me when they do not count my clients, which fill forms."
"The pricing and licensing is as per market standards, except that the process of extending licenses is also easy."
"The price is so reasonable."
"Setup cost is reasonable and average on the market. They offer simple licensing and price per user."
"Great value for the money."
"This solution has a very lost cost."
"AppWorks is pretty expensive."
"There is a user-based perpetual license."
"Pricing for OpenText AppWorks, specifically in the Indian market, is reasonable, but I'm not aware if it's still reasonable outside of India. The licensing cost is based on the number of licenses and the number of users. OpenText AppWorks has different licensing options."
"The licensing cost varies based on several factors, such as the size of the customer and the domain URL."
"The price is on the higher side."
