Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Informatica Business Process Manager is easy to use and learn.""There isn't any human touch involved. It's just an automated business process to build different applications and talking to various APIs using the client's ecosystems. We then build new functionalities out of it.""I know that there are two good features, APN and ServiceNow but we haven't explored all of its features yet."

More Informatica Business Process Manager Pros →

"From a business perspective, the most valuable aspect lies in the optimization of processes.""OpenText AppWorks has standard features such as system-to-system and human-to-human integrations, but what I find most valuable in the solution is its monitoring feature that tells you more about your processes, how to restart and how to stop each process, etc.""We really appreciate the process automation and how can you create human tasks as one of your processes.""One of the most useful features is the code is customizable, we can make it our own.""In terms of the scalability and the handling of complexity, the customers are satisfied, and we also have confidence in the solution to achieve whatever implementations are required.""AppWorks is a very quick development platform with low-coding capability and strong integration with third-party systems.""The monitoring aspect is highly valuable, as it offers an exceptional capability to track every minute of action performed by a business user in the global context.""We've automated several processes, including purchase requisition to purchase orders, RFQ processes, vendor onboarding, project budgeting, and business case creation. The recent versions of OpenText AppWorks, especially those incorporating low-code functionalities, have had a significant positive impact. In some cases, we've observed a remarkable reduction in development time, ranging from 50 to 75 percent. The MTP model and life cycle have facilitated rapid development cycles."

Cons
"We haven't had many technical issues. We don't use all of the components of the tool that are more complex and error-prone.""I need to have some insight into the tool's cloud capabilities."

More Informatica Business Process Manager Cons →

"The crucial missing element is the archival function.""AppWorks could be improved by including BPM simulation.""OpenText AppWork's low-code capabilities can be enhanced by integrating them with AI offerings like Aviator.""There is room for improvement in the pricing structure.""The integration could improve.""The solution needs to continue to enhance the low-coding feature within the product itself.""There could be some improvements with the low code design part. It could be more customizable and more user friendly.""A room for improvement in OpenText AppWorks is its user interface. It should have mobile compatibility because right now, you still have to make two applications with a user interface for Android and a user interface for iOS, so if OpenText AppWorks can provide one UI that can be used across all devices, that would make the solution better. An additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of OpenText AppWorks is a better UI in terms of the look and feel. Another feature I'd like to see in the next version of the solution is mobile compatibility because, at the moment, you have to make your application mobile-ready or compatible with mobile devices because there's no provision for it in OpenText AppWorks."
