Good reporting, a very good dashboard, and easy to set up
We primarily use the solution for processes like preparing worksheets. It's essential to the human resource process like expenses and allowances The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good. The design of the interface, in general, could be improved. It could be a bit more…

Automation platforms streamline processes and offer flexibility, but AI integration and version upgrades pose challenges
In the technology world, there is always room for improvement. Technologies evolve day by day, especially with the emergence of artificial intelligence and generative AI models. Although IBM BPM is a substantial product, adopting and integrating new technologies quickly is not easy due to the migration and upgrade paths involved. Every time new versions are released, we face business and production challenges that make rapid adoption challenging. The main concern bothering me today regarding IBM BPM is the integration of AI components.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is very stable. There is no downtime."
"The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good."
"I find the flexibility most valuable, and being able to connect and integrate with various systems, as well as being solution oriented, is valuable to me as well."
"The integration layer is powerful in the advanced version."
"The process creation."
"The installation was straightforward."
"Faster: industrialization of the renewal process with the automation of certain tasks and a clarified organization can handle a case 3 times faster."
"It is easy to take a requirement, put it in the code, and deploy it."
"It is quite a scalable product, as on one of our projects we are running something like 50,000 processes a day and are able to actually handle that efficiently without a lot of hassle."
"One of the reasons for adopting this solution ten years ago was its ease of use. It had a lot of off-the-shelf functionality, and it did not need to be developed specifically for the project that we were implementing. That was the main reason for adopting it in the beginning."
"Automation is the most valuable feature of IBM BPM."
 

Cons

"The areas that would benefit in improvement would be the training information, the white papers and useful tutorials as to how to build these typical solutions."
"The setup and configuration is complex."
"The design of the interface, in general, could be improved. It could be a bit more user-friendly."
"It needs more customization. We like to customize the screens to show more things related to our company."
"This is technology, and there's always room for improvement. It would be better to have a single solution. Trying to have an overview in terms of this solution brings together the concepts of BPM processes, customer journeys, and an automation part for KPIs. All of this working together and coming up with a single solution with privacy is more commercial than anything else."
"They should incorporate an API gateway functionality within it to simplify integrations."
"The solution can improve integration with SAP, CRM, and Salesforce, which is not capital-intensive."
"We had a weird problem that whenever the database would go down, even for a few seconds, it broke the connection. It would not come back up as it was supposed to. However, working with IBM, we were able to figure out a fix, then it came back up, even after an interruption of the database."
"One suggestion for IBM BPM is to provide better integration between their products, such as DataCap, which we use for scanning. Although the new CP4BA offers offline capabilities, not everyone is on CP4BA, so enhanced integration for those on older versions would be beneficial."
"I would like to see a lot more case studies."
"There is room for improvement in the stability."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It has a low cost to implement. You'll get your money back in the same year that you complete the project."
"Starting out with Express can also help reduce the cost for adopting the product."
"It may be cheaper for organizations to pay for the Viewer licenses that are immediately up and running in the cloud, rather than paying for someone to administer publishing to an intranet."
"The pricing is quite high, I would rate it two out of five."
"I already compared some solutions related to business process management, and I saw that the cost of IBM BPM is more expensive compared with that of Camunda, for example."
"It is pricey."
"The price is good but could be a little lower."
"Its price is on the higher side, and it can be improved. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There are no additional costs."
