Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great."
"In terms of its most valuable features, this solution, in general, will provide all you need and it's very convenient to use. We can share our details to collaborative platforms. We can give access to users. It's pretty flexible."
"It has a lot of flexibility, and Microsoft does come up with some new additions from time to time."
"The product has a strong and easy integration with Teams."
"Overall, I would rate OpenText 360 for SharePoint as ten."
"OpenText 360 for SharePoint integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Teams, allowing me to monitor and manage projects and task issues using mobile devices."
"This solution has good connection and we do not need to migrate everything in order to protect the repository."
"It's all now on cloud subscription, so you can use all the features without worrying about making the system updates patches."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"The most valuable feature is the complete workflow through the BPM, from making it available as a generated code based on the backend, deploying it in the test environment, and then going to production."
"The solution provides extensive functionalities."
"One of the most valuable features of Oracle BPM is the workflow itself. It is quite intuitive."
"The support is good."
"One of the most valuable features is its user-friendly API, which simplifies the implementation of workflows, such as managing inbox tasks for specific users within BPM profiles."
"It is quite scalable and can be applied to enterprise-level organizations effectively."
"It has developmental accelerators, which allow for virtually any customization needs which you may require."
 

Cons

"The GUI should be improved for better user experience. Additionally, while there are standard connectors for automation and approvals in Power Platform, some tasks still need to be handled with API request calls instead of direct connectors, which could be improved."
"An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved."
"If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option."
"The platform's workflows could be more intuitive and easier to use."
"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."
"Integration is an area where the solution lacks."
"The user interface could definitely be improved."
"The graphical user interface had to be more user-friendly. It's not as intuitive."
"Oracle BPM should allow integration with external, common APIs."
"It would be good if they could provide some additional connectors or an application developer environment for microservices."
"Pricing is an area that could use improvement."
"Oracle BPM is hard to configure."
"You have to maintain it manually."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"Overall, the engine and the UI both have to be made lighter."
"There are delays in offering the latest technology, so there is a need to be more responsive to technological changes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has a reasonable price."
"There is a license needed to use OpenText 360 for SharePoint and we pay annually. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
"Its price is reasonable, but its licensing is very complex. This platform contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify its licensing."
"Pricing is a part of the enterprise agreement that we have."
"On-premises version is expensive"
"OpenText 360's price varies depending on how long you've been a customer, how many licenses you have, and which products you use."
"The solution has a very complex pricing model."
"SharePoint uses a subscription model."
"Oracle is good, but they're still expensive compared to other vendors."
"As with all Oracle products, the licensing over VMware is an issue."
"The pricing is very expensive."
"I don't have information on the exact cost of Oracle BPM because a different team handles that, but it's pretty high. Oracle products are very costly. I would rate pricing for Oracle BPM three out of five. Though the pricing is high, the solution has a lot of features."
"The pricing is significantly high, particularly for Brazil where fluctuations in the exchange rate between the dollar and the real can further increase the cost of Oracle licenses."
"The licensing model is good."
"This solution is very expensive. You are charged per license and an additional 20% for support."
"It's pried high, this solution is expensive."

We have been using ELMA BPM (http://www.elma-bpm.com/), and it also does not require programming to model and execute processes. Yes, for complicated custom features you will need additional scripts but that isn't generally a problem.
