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.
Nouman Nawaz - PeerSpot reviewer
Mature product in terms of security and stable product
The architecture is a bit difficult, but in BAW, they introduced the Business Automation Workflow. It's a bit easier compared to Case Manager. Currently, we use Case Manager, so it's a bit difficult to upgrade and handle, but BAW is comparatively much better and easier to handle. The limitation is only for customization because IBM doesn't support it. In some scenarios, if you want some business processes to be customized, we have already spoken two or three times with IBM representatives that we have to customize some of the features in this business process. They would say that if you want to do this automation at your own end, then okay, fine, go ahead, but we are not supporting all this customization. The only thing is the customization because it's a complete standard application.

Pros

"This software added transparency to our workflows. It helped with increasing throughput of clients and their satisfaction."
"The workflow tracker helps us to track our staff's workflow. It helps us to improve the productivity of our team."
"This solution can be useful for tracking the different stages of projects and the people working on them."
"The clean interface, prioritization, and private task lists aren't present in other solutions."
"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."
"Customize workflow processes visually and interactively."
"This software makes it so easy and enjoyable to work with the team. Any user can learn and start using the application quickly."
"It successfully routes hand-offs between different teams, adds transparency to workflows, and has a set of social collaboration tools."
"It provides us the capability of producing b​​usiness processes for documents that are launched immediately when a document comes into the repository."
"It's very easy."
"The content management is great."
"The most valuable feature is its stability, which is why we are using it."
"A valuable feature includes seamless integration with the document management system, along with robust capabilities in analytics and reporting."
"Flexible and the ability to divide search screens, and to search for documents. The ECM feature inside the system is great."
"The client and the IBM content navigation are the solution's most valuable features."
"The solution is scalable."
 

Cons

"Figuring out how to integrate defined teams or groups into this system is difficult, and there are no contextual menus."
"I would like them to offer a one-time payment plan that one can choose."
"It would be wonderful to have newer version releases more frequently, but it is quite a minor con."
"This solution lacks API integration with some popular websites."
"There are not very many report templates, and if there were more, it would really help."
"The UX/UI could be reviewed and revamped to meet new the criteria of Digitalization and Innovation."
"The initial setup seemed a bit complex, and there is no great documentation."
"I am expecting new updates to improve the software."
"​The place of improvement is merging or combining all of the workflow functionality into one seamless tool. Now, there are multiple installations that are different. Case Foundation, before you can put Case Manager and you've got IBM BPM, and the roadmap is there to merge them altogether. But that's the struggle at the moment, it's having multiple installations and disparate workflow applications.​"
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"There are some features that could be enhanced like the document viewer"
"We are now using microservices but there are some areas where the coordination with FileNet is problematic."
"Comparing the solution with other interfaces, IBM BPM is much better than Case Foundation. They need to make this solution's interface more user-friendly."
"There is a need for more open and flexible integration capabilities, allowing seamless collaboration with a broader spectrum of business process management solutions, beyond the confines of IBM's document management offerings."
"The limitation is only for customization because IBM doesn't support it."
"The cloud version could use more stability."
