Chief Operating Officer at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
The solution enables automation of supply chain and invoice processing with comprehensive integration and workflow capabilities
The main valuable features of OpenText AppWorks are the BPM modules. There is the standard BPM modeler and a case modeler. These are two strong features from the workflow layer. Additionally, the integration capability of the solution is beneficial. With these features, we are able to use OpenText AppWorks for automating supply-chain-related problems, vendor process automations, and invoice automations. We have built almost twenty-plus types of solutions and implemented around three hundred fifty-plus implementations. The solution also allows us to integrate it with our ERP system.

Works as a reference for architecture but not very intuitive
We use the solution as a reference for architecture so that we can connect business data applications. The tool helps us to know how these applications should be built. We use it mainly as reference material.  I like the solution's traceability.  The solution is not easy and intuitive to use. I…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most useful features is the code is customizable, we can make it our own."
"From a business perspective, the most valuable aspect lies in the optimization of processes."
"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."
"The good part of OpenText AppWorks is that all of its components are together in one platform, including integration capability, UI capability, and workflow capability."
"AppWorks is a very quick development platform with low-coding capability and strong integration with third-party systems."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"I like the solution's traceability."
"It is stable and easy to use."
"Enterprise architecture and a positive sense of understanding soon reached everyone."
 

Cons

"There could be some improvements with the low code design part. It could be more customizable and more user friendly."
"The UI for the solution is complex, and it would be better to go for Openpath and Angular or use another BPM engine."
"AppWorks is pretty expensive."
"OpenText needs improvements in its integration model to align with newer integration types."
"The crucial missing element is the archival function."
"From an enterprise point, their pricing is a little bit crazy because they don't have a SaaS model."
"The solution needs to continue to enhance the low-coding feature within the product itself."
"AppWorks could be improved by including BPM simulation."
"In the previous version, the web interface was unstable."
"I was not so satisfied with arrows in this program."
"The solution is not easy and intuitive to use. I would also like the software to have a reference metamodel that can guide the modeling."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a user-based perpetual license."
"The price is on the higher side."
"The licensing cost varies based on several factors, such as the size of the customer and the domain URL."
"AppWorks is pretty expensive."
"Pricing for OpenText AppWorks, specifically in the Indian market, is reasonable, but I'm not aware if it's still reasonable outside of India. The licensing cost is based on the number of licenses and the number of users. OpenText AppWorks has different licensing options."
"I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten since it's pretty expensive."
