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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Not just the solution's automation capabilities, but we like everything about it since we are more of a system integrator."
"It is easy to use in a business processing suite."
"The most valuable features I find in Oracle BPM include a unified process management platform, human workflow management, and process simulation and optimization."
"Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes."
"This solution has given us a quick time to market, the ability to integrate with the rest of the corporate applications, and the ability to hire talent in low-cost locations."
"What I found most valuable in Oracle BPM is that it has a lot of out-of-the-box integrations. The solution also provides a lot of adapters which is very helpful."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"It has developmental accelerators, which allow for virtually any customization needs which you may require."
"Currently, we define the tasks, and based on certain decision rules, the tool decides the task priorities and the time frame of the task."
 

Cons

"The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
"There are shortcomings in the solution's support and documentation part."
"You have to maintain it manually."
"Oracle BPM should allow integration with external, common APIs."
"Regarding the Process Analytics feature, which features are you referring to?"
"Pricing is an area that could use improvement."
"Overall, the engine and the UI both have to be made lighter."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"Oracle BPM could probably be improved with respect to the cost. When you are using this product, it'll be a bit costlier for the ROA. I think they should do some discounts on these products, especially for the licenses."
"The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual license to use OpenText MBPM."
"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."
"As with all Oracle products, the licensing over VMware is an issue."
"This solution is very expensive. You are charged per license and an additional 20% for support."
"The licensing for this product is very costly. We pay for a yearly license to use Oracle BPM."
"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."
"Oracle is good, but they're still expensive compared to other vendors."
"It's pried high, this solution is expensive."
"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."
