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.

Integrates well and helpful support

Ultimus Adaptive Business Process Management has good integration with all the other tools we have been using in our company. We use the data that other tools provide in our implementation. We have developed several processes here in the company, such as requests for change, request development, and buying processes. The tool allows you to modify the business rules without the need to modify the source code, the administrator can move the process one step to another without needing to be implemented in the logic of the automation, this can be done from the administration console Or with the integration EIK, there is a wide number of options for the administrator who gives you great flexibility in your administration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes."

"The most valuable features I find in Oracle BPM include a unified process management platform, human workflow management, and process simulation and optimization."

"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."

"It is easy and cheap."

"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 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."

"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."

"It has developmental accelerators, which allow for virtually any customization needs which you may require."

More Oracle BPM pros

"Development is easy on the Ultimus platform."

"Ultimus Adaptive Business Process Management has good integration with all the other tools we have been using in our company. We use the data that other tools provide in our implementation."

Cons

"The product must reduce its cost."

"The solution's licensing cost is very high."

"The overall pricing of the product is around $1,000 per user, or the licensing of Oracle BPM will cost around $50,000 plus."

"From my knowledge of this solution, I don't see that the Oracle BPM includes features such as the growth of discovery and process mining."

"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."

"You have to maintain it manually."

"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."

More Oracle BPM cons

"Ultimus is not good at handling cash transactions. They should add a mobile application in the next release."

"We are looking for a feature that can resign and move the process from one step to another step."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As with all Oracle products, the licensing over VMware is an issue."

"The licensing for this product is very costly. We pay for a yearly license to use Oracle BPM."

"The licensing model is good."

"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."

"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."

"This solution is very expensive. You are charged per license and an additional 20% for support."

More Oracle BPM pricing and cost advice

"Ultimus could stand to lower the price. Other tools are cheaper."
