Has reliable technical support and good stability
From my experience using Bosch, I would recommend it to somebody considering it. I would rate it an eight out of ten. There are better solutions on the market. To make it a perfect ten, they should improve the price. There is a learning curve and sometimes there are issues from the software.

Automation has transformed financial workflows and has improved revenue tracking and compliance
Regarding Watsonx, I am uncertain whether it is fully complied and fully integrated with IBM Business Automation Workflow yet. Currently, we use some AI in Enterprise Content Management, particularly when searching documents. Archiving snapshots would be very beneficial. It would be good to reduce the administration effort required to archive snapshots, as this is a main issue with the product. I would also recommend that IBM engage with customers more deeply. Rather than sending URLs or documentation for customers to solve problems independently, the support team should be more involved in addressing the client's specific issues in a targeted manner, providing clear guidance on what actions need to be taken.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We contact their customer support often. They are very good and reliable."
"It has increased productivity on the development side, we have been able to move applications from thought to production quicker, the solution saves time in development as well as with time to deploy, and it has been able to reduce operating costs."
"Automation will help them to improve their efficiency for any case resolution and improve the customer experience."
"IBM Business Automation Workflow is stable because the different infrastructure elements, such as the OS and middleware have been used for a long time."
"The product is suitable for knowledge management processes."
"IBM Business Automation Workflow is a good tool provided you can use it cross-platform where there are a lot of features."
"This is a stable solution that we have been able to use as a distributed system."
"It performs the basic tasks that are required for the BBM solution as part of the overall integration with ECM or enterprise contact management."
"IBM has spent a lot of time on the connections between the rules engine and its other product, the core BPM platform. They've really centralized the suite as one offering now."
 

Cons

"There are better solutions on the market. To make it a perfect ten, they should improve the price. There is a learning curve and sometimes there are issues from the software."
"We have found it tough to get the proper support from IBM."
"From what I understand, in the next release they're actually going to combine all of this together as one integrated solution... If we could have one unified way to build a solution, that would really help."
"The SCADA Systems are very sophisticated and have a hard time integrating with our older scales. The technical support in regards to the partner side needs some improvement."
"Requires a lot of customization code writing which could be reduced."
"Every client is moving to the cloud. We are still a little behind with IBM, but we are catching up from my point of view."
"IBM Business Automation Workflow could be more intuitive, with more advanced low-code features and services definition."
"The UI of the solution is not good. They should work to update the solution and make it better and fresher."
"If the issue needs escalation to level two or level three, it can take time on a case-by-case basis."
