User experience reveals stability and easy deployment, though improvements in integration options are needed

We are still working with DataPower Gateway with IBM solutions, but they will move to webMethods from DataPower, IBM. We still use IBM FileNet for the FileNet. We have already integrated IBM Case Foundation with IBM Content Management and are using IBM Content Navigator as an interface in Content Engine and Content Management for lifecycle documents. I do not use analytics for operational insights. We work in banking, but not in healthcare. Currently, my customers are using it on-premises, and security-wise it is fine. For Saudi Arabia, 300 users represent a medium business. I recommend IBM Case Foundation; it is the best in BPM solutions, and I support it. It is the best because it has stability, very good stability. IBM has good stability, and performance-wise it is also easy for deployment. From the GUI, you can make many changes, and it is low code; we did not write much code because the BPM design is a very good solution. My total rating for IBM Case Foundation is 8.5 out of 10.

Enhancing user experience and data management with effective central repository capabilities

The area of improvement with OpenText 360 for SharePoint is that sometimes there are unexpected service outages. Though these situations are rare, I want to highlight that in case of any outage in the services, because everything is located in SharePoint, there is a chance that reports start failing or dashboards fail, or the system behaves differently. In future updates, I would want to see widgets available in OpenText 360 for SharePoint to interact with third-party tools. For example, when creating a dashboard, having the ability to embed these directly into SharePoint would be beneficial. Currently, I have to use hyperlinks to access other tools such as Tableau or ClickView. If it were possible to merge everything and bring all information from multiple teams (Cognos, ClickView, AWS) into SharePoint as a centralized place, it would be really helpful. That is what I envision for the integrator part.
