Find out in this report how the two Business Process Management (BPM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product has a very good mobile app."
"We appreciate the drag and drop functionality and the easy to access plug and play features."
"The low code functionality and being able to get applications faster to customers or to the market are valuable."
"What stands out are the speed of the product, the quick, easy development, and visual diagramming."
"Since implementing we have had a faster time to solution, with fewer resources needed."
"This is the most complete solution of its kind."
"Even with an on-premise implementation, the scalability is still high, so it is easy to scale up."
"Process Modeling enables creation of business process workflows. You can create complex business workflows in a visual manner, and it is also easy to debug/monitor."
"One of the most valuable features is its user-friendly API, which simplifies the implementation of workflows, such as managing inbox tasks for specific users within BPM profiles."
"The support is good."
"I find the data lineage features most valuable."
"We selected this solution not only for the BPM but for the entire package."
"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."
"This solution has given us a quick time to market, the ability to integrate with the rest of the corporate applications, and the ability to hire talent in low-cost locations."
"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."
"The documentation needs to be improved."
"Appian has a few areas for improvement, which my organization raised with the Appian team. One is the Excel output which is limited to fifty columns when it should be up to two hundred or three hundred columns."
"Architecture of product and scalabiility issues."
"Authoring tool is slow to use resulted in limitations on how quickly solutions can be built."
"It needs better integration with our existing application ecosystem."
"One of the areas that Appian is working on is to improve its UI capabilities and give more flexibility to the UI."
"Lacks business rules management as part of the solution."
"I would like to see more features for enterprises. They would also benefit from adding documentation and training on their site."
"We have had some issues with version migration, from one version of processes to another. We would have to call Oracle Services but on a day to day, we didn't have any issues."
"Though Oracle BPM is a stable solution, it's very heavy, so this is one area for improvement. If Oracle can make the components of Oracle BPM lighter, and if the deployment for the solution could be easier, that would make Oracle BPM better."
"Pricing is an area that could use improvement."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing structure."
"Their Case Management set of features is severely lacking and should be a target for immediate improvement dealing with unpredictable processes inside of organizations."
"It could have easier administration. It takes time to configure and deploy."
"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."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
