Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We have more than 800 distinct applications in our IT landscape. We had enough scalability and okay development cycles, and it has been enough to cover our backup operations and order management systems.""The support is good.""The benefit from the tool is we can develop it quickly and easily use it for middleware services. We can publish the services so other applications can consume them. This is providing us some reusability and a type of security.""One of the most valuable features of Oracle BPM is the workflow itself. It is quite intuitive.""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 default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace.""The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work.""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 collaboration hub is good because it allows us to share the models that we've captured and to get comments back, and we don't all have to be in the same room, it can be remote and over time.""The feature that I like the most is the collaboration hub, where every user or every employee can see the process in the overview.""It is a stable solution.""It is a very scalable solution.""The visual representation is extremely powerful and easy to use in process modeling and analysis. I can show it to someone who doesn't know business process mapping, and they still understand because it's visually presented. It becomes easy to explain variants and what needs to change.""We could increase the transparency and speed for the new ERP introduction. The status and changes by the new system are now clear to everybody and it is a great tool to train the people.""I have done a lot of modeling over quite a number of years, and I think that the modeling capabilities in Signavio are state of the art.""Process management/Process governance is what we think Signavio is very good at."

Cons
"You have to maintain it manually.""The time it takes to get from deployment to production could be faster.""Every time we roll out a new version of processes, we have to migrate to a new process. The process of this migration was not very smooth. We later decided that it would be easier for us to stop all processes, deploy a new version and then restart.""Overall, the engine and the UI both have to be made lighter.""Pricing is an area that could use improvement.""Oracle BPM is hard to configure.""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.""It could have easier administration. It takes time to configure and deploy."

"I think the biggest selling point that Signavio talks about is its collaborative aspect. However, there's still a lot more improvement in terms of what they can do, how they receive comments, address comments, whether they actually provide feedback, etc. There is still a little bit more improvement to be made on those areas.""I would like to have the option to select the color of items and subgroups in the glossary because right now it is fixed.""There are a lot of challenges with Process Manager. For example, we wanted to create a process map from an Excel sheet, but Signavio doesn't have that capability. I have raised this issue with Signavio support, but it is one of the bottlenecks we are currently facing.""I would like to see more predictive analytics. The tool already has all the process maps, but it could offer a more proactive improvement offering. For example, they could put a little bit more machine learning behind it.""The licensing model could be better.""The solution is complex.""It could use a better user interface, one that is more efficient.""The solution’s pricing could be improved."
