Good reporting, a very good dashboard, and easy to set up
We primarily use the solution for processes like preparing worksheets. It's essential to the human resource process like expenses and allowances The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good. The design of the interface, in general, could be improved. It could be a bit more…

Automation platforms streamline processes and offer flexibility, but AI integration and version upgrades pose challenges
In the technology world, there is always room for improvement. Technologies evolve day by day, especially with the emergence of artificial intelligence and generative AI models. Although IBM BPM is a substantial product, adopting and integrating new technologies quickly is not easy due to the migration and upgrade paths involved. Every time new versions are released, we face business and production challenges that make rapid adoption challenging. The main concern bothering me today regarding IBM BPM is the integration of AI components.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good."
"I find the flexibility most valuable, and being able to connect and integrate with various systems, as well as being solution oriented, is valuable to me as well."
"It is very stable. There is no downtime."
"The platform's most valuable features are its process automation capabilities and its ability to provide a comprehensive view of business operations."
"It makes the company business processes work more efficiently."
"IBM BPM is equipped with all the functionalities which are needed for building BPM enterprise-level applications."
"The most valuable feature of IBM BPM is the low code design, and ease of maintenance, and additionally, the integration is good and easy to do."
"The solution is more customizable than IBM FileNet."
"It's a solid product. It covers most of the pain points for clients."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten...The product's installation was easy."
"Its workflow and integration with SAP are the most valuable features. It is also a stable solution."
 

Cons

"The design of the interface, in general, could be improved. It could be a bit more user-friendly."
"The areas that would benefit in improvement would be the training information, the white papers and useful tutorials as to how to build these typical solutions."
"The setup and configuration is complex."
"We had a weird problem that whenever the database would go down, even for a few seconds, it broke the connection. It would not come back up as it was supposed to. However, working with IBM, we were able to figure out a fix, then it came back up, even after an interruption of the database."
"Also, we would like to see integration with artificial intelligence, machine learning-type of technical capabilities. Right now, there are a lot Watson libraries out there. Building those integrations more, out-of-the-box, from IBM would be a good direction."
"Where it can be improved is Integration."
"It was complex, but fair, since it is a complex thing."
"The response time needs to be better. Every time when you click a link or a button or something, the response could be faster - although, I know it also depends on the network connectivity."
"We care about technology and support because support is very important and a BPM is not easy to implement."
"When you have to integrate files for enterprise applications, we call them ESIs, this requires a lot of work, because you have to first create the EF file and integration designer, which takes quite some time, before you can be able to consume a website."
"We need to make changes quickly, and sometimes the IBM team is very slow with the product evolution or changes to the tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I rate the solution's pricing a four out of ten."
"Price wise, IBM BPM is cheaper than other similar solutions and has excellent pricing."
"It is pricey."
"Due to its extensive features and capabilities, the product pricing is more aligned with medium—to large enterprises."
"The solution might be expensive, but I can't give you a precise number. In the market here, I've seen two main products for BPM: IBM BPM and Camunda. Camunda is very popular and open-source, so there's no direct comparison."
"IBM BPM is expensive, so most large companies opt for IBM based on their licensing options."
"It should provide more flexibility to connect with external systems, and there should be in-built services that can be used to integrate with other systems quickly."
"It may be cheaper for organizations to pay for the Viewer licenses that are immediately up and running in the cloud, rather than paying for someone to administer publishing to an intranet."
