We performed a comparison between Appian and Oracle BPM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."It has very flexible adaptation and the ability to save and automate processes."
"The most valuable features are the low coding and low code data."
"The tech support is quite good."
"The agile manner that we require to create our workflows. This is probably the most critical part of our solution and the time it takes to start processing the solution."
"Good workflow engines that bridge the gaps of processes."
"Technical support has been amazing overall."
"What stands out are the speed of the product, the quick, easy development, and visual diagramming."
"With low-code, we don't need a lot of coding, and then from the plumbing perspective, there is a complete CI/CD pipeline that exists within Appian that can be leveraged for open deployment."
"The processor management system is quite fast and scalable. We have 10 developers using this solution and it supports 25,000 users."
"The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work."
"The support is good."
"I find the data lineage features most valuable."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"We selected this solution not only for the BPM but for the entire package."
"Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes."
"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 graphical user interface could be easier to use. It should be simplified."
"What could be improved is more on the front end perspective, like the user interface and the mobile application aspect."
"It would be nice if you could create your own customized apps when the business needed them."
"Appian is easy to set up, but JBoss is complex. JBoss is the application server for running Appian."
"We would like to have more granular control for interface styling."
"One of the areas that Appian is working on is to improve its UI capabilities and give more flexibility to the UI."
"The tool itself is pretty good, but the main area that we struggled with was the backend. The frontend development is really good, but the backend modeling can be streamlined a little bit. There are good integrations, but tying them through the data layer and then up into the frontend could be improved a little bit. It does read/write on the data source, and you can configure it to just write or just read, but there is a little bit of work involved."
"I would like to see more complete university tools. For example, with UiPath, I have had a good experience related to a free course in order to provide some users some different levels of knowledge. This extra training helps users not only use the solution but to develop further within the tool."
"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."
"Their Case Management set of features is severely lacking and should be a target for immediate improvement dealing with unpredictable processes inside of organizations."
"Oracle BPM is hard to configure."
"You have to maintain it manually."
"The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems."
"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."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing structure."
