Practice Director at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
A solution offering good automation capabilities while needing to improve its support and documentation
I think the solution's support could do a better job. I rate the support somewhere around four and five out of ten. There is a hoard of people that they get in touch with while contacting them. So we've done some work with them in the past. I mean, we've been a support partner for a while. But apart from that, in terms of understanding the issues for a particular technology, I think there is a lack of people at their end. So they don't really have many people with them. And by the time we could get hold of the right person, especially for production issues, it's a little too late.

Facilitates process integration across departments but requires better pricing and broader feature adoption
The most valuable features I find in Oracle BPM include a unified process management platform, human workflow management, and process simulation and optimization. I see that it is integrated with other ERPs. If you integrate it with human HRMS workflow management, then it will provide integration with HRMS for Oracle E-Business Suite and for process analytics and business.

Pros

"OpenText MBPM is a stable solution."
"Not just the solution's automation capabilities, but we like everything about it since we are more of a system integrator."
"The most valuable features I find in Oracle BPM include a unified process management platform, human workflow management, and process simulation and optimization."
"It is easy and cheap."
"We built solutions based on this product in pretty much all domains, from retail to banking and finance, communications and utilities, and various industries (namely, the aerospace industry), as well as public sector, from applications, which deal mainly with approval processes and auditing needs, to a full blown Service Management ERP for a large retailer."
"Oracle BPM provides a good return on investment, and most customers see benefits within six months to a year."
"We have more than 800 distinct applications in our IT landscape, and we have had enough scalability and okay development cycles, and it has been enough to cover our backup operations and order management systems."
"One of the most valuable features of Oracle BPM is the workflow itself. It is quite intuitive."
"The integration of the solution is very good with other Oracle products."
"Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes."
 

Cons

"There are shortcomings in the solution's support and documentation part."
"The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
"The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
"Oracle BPM has a lack of vision and is very complex to develop and maintain."
"Although it is a robust product, its learning curve can be steep without having the proper training and mentoring on the first project."
"Regarding the Process Analytics feature, which features are you referring to?"
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."

"The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems."
"Existing APIs in the product need to be fine-tuned, made more robust and flexible for adoption."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cost-efficient, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing somewhere between nine and ten since it is a costly solution."
"There is an annual license to use OpenText MBPM."
"The pricing is very expensive."
"Oracle is good, but they're still expensive compared to other vendors."
"It's pried high, this solution is expensive."

"The licensing model is good."
"We received the product packaged into the Oracle database solution."
"The licensing for this product is very costly. We pay for a yearly license to use Oracle BPM."
"This solution is very expensive. You are charged per license and an additional 20% for support."
