Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good."
"It is very stable. There is no downtime."
"It is transparent to business users because it is mostly picture based modelling."
"Its Analytics is the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is straightforward and easy. I would give it a nine out of ten."
"We made the transformation to agile. Altogether with BPM, it is the total package."
"We are receiving good assistance from the technical support."
"IBM BPM and Automation Anywhere working together automate manual tasks with a reduction in FTEs, creating about a 30% reduction in FTEs by automating processes."
"IBM BPM is equipped with all the functionalities which are needed for building BPM enterprise-level applications."
"It is easy to take a requirement, put it in the code, and deploy it."
"Broker and UM are the best features."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The ease of mapping... is the single largest feature. It gives us the ability to craft anything. A lot of single-purpose technologies, like Mirth, are good for healthcare messages, but we use webMethods not only for healthcare messages but for other business-related purposes, like integrations to Salesforce or integrations to Office 365. It's multi-purpose nature is very strong."
"It frankly fills the gap between IT and business by having approval and policy enforcement on each state and cycle of the asset from the moment it gets created until it is retired."
"The comprehensiveness and depth of Integration Servers' connectors to packaged apps and custom apps is unlimited. They have a connector for everything. If they don't, you can build it yourself. Or oftentimes, if there is value for other customers as well, you can talk with webMethods about creating a new adapter for you."
"All of the components are very independent but are tied together to give the business value."
"One of the most important features is that it gives you the possibility to do low-level integration. It provides a lot of features out of the box, and over the years, it has matured so much that any problem that is there in the market can be solved with this product. We can meet any requirements through customizations, transformations, or the logic that needs to be put in. Some of the other products struggle in this aspect. They cannot do things in a certain way, or they have a product limitation, whereas, with webMethods, I have never faced this kind of problem."
"What I found most valuable in webMethods Integration Server is that it's a strong ESB. It also has strong API modules and portals."
"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 is a rather thick stack because you have to have WebSphere skills, IBM BPM skills, and an understanding of how the product runs on WebSphere. A lot of this will start to get a lot easier as they put it in containers, which will allow the platform to manage itself in some regards."
"The interface is limited and should improve in the future."
"The user experience, while it has improved, should continue to improve."
"The constant switch between Eclipse and its web versions can be annoying and confusing."
"The business would like to use the product with a lot less IT and equipment involvement."
"The debugging needs improvement. There is some confusion surrounding the debugging."
"You must have good experience to work with it. It is not that easy. Its installation is complex, especially in the new version for business automation, and it could be improved. It has a safety application embedded inside it, and you need to do a lot of configuration to install it. I have been working for two days to resolve an issue."
"The product is extremely complex to use and administrate."
"We'd like for them to open up to a more cloud-based solution that could offer more flexibility and maybe a better rules engine or more integration with rules engines."
"Support is expensive."
"Large file handling is pretty hard comparatively to other middleware tools."
"The installation process should be simplified for first time users and be made more user-friendly."
"The solution has big instances when deployed under microservices or in a containerized platform. They need to improve that so that it is competitive with other integration solutions, like Redis and Kafka. Deployments under microservices with those solutions are much more lightweight, in the size of the runtime itself, compared with Software AG."
"It could be more user-friendly."
"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."
"For code version control, you need to use some external software."
