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

"It is very stable. There is no downtime."
"The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good."
"The solution is stable."
"The solution is stable."
"We are receiving good assistance from the technical support."
"The initial setup process is easy."
"The functionality to design UI to be responsive and can run on multiple devices."
"It makes the company business processes work more efficiently."
"I think the best way it can be it improved, is to make it easier to install. It's a very complicated piece of software, and there are a lot of things you have to do to get it set up. It's not just running an installer. You install WebSphere. You install the BPM product, and there's a large host of other steps you have to do: run queries against the database, you have to manually configure a bunch of properties files for your environment. I think if they could streamline all that, so it wasn't a considerable effort to install, that would be very useful. Because from an engineering point of view, you want to spend as little time as possible actually installing a product."
"I like the APIs and the BPM coach is a good tool. But if I had to pick one, it would be the API."
 

Cons

"The setup and configuration is complex."
"The design of the interface, in general, could be improved. It could be a bit more user-friendly."
"It can definitely be improved in terms of performance and stability."
"One suggestion for IBM BPM is to provide better integration between their products, such as DataCap, which we use for scanning. Although the new CP4BA offers offline capabilities, not everyone is on CP4BA, so enhanced integration for those on older versions would be beneficial."
"We would appreciate more user-friendly definitions of processes with a more user-friendly interface for documenting processes."
"We have had to use Mule as an alternative integration tool because it is more flexible than IBM BPM."
"We still have a couple of issues that we are working on right now with stability. Mostly on the configuration side of the tool, and it has been about a month that we have been working to stabilize the platform.​"
"It is not user-friendly."
"Initial setup is very complex. Too many steps need to be done at the database and server levels, and complex configurations. From what I see, a lot of these steps can be and should be automated."
"IBM BPM's price could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is pricey."
"It gives us a good return on investment."
"We have a yearly licensing model. It is not expensive. There are no addition costs to the standard license."
"IBM BPM cannot be considered a cheaply priced product. IBM BPM is a really expensive product compared to other companies. One needs to opt for the perpetual licensing model offered by IBM."
"I rate the solution's pricing a four out of ten."
"IBM could improve the price. It is far too expensive."
"The pricing is very high."
"Due to its extensive features and capabilities, the product pricing is more aligned with medium—to large enterprises."
