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."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 most valuable features are the low coding and low code data."
"It has very flexible adaptation and the ability to save and automate processes."
"Technical support is helpful."
"The process models provide self-documenting systems."
"Good workflow engines that bridge the gaps of processes."
"Since implementing we have had a faster time to solution, with fewer resources needed."
"The most valuable features of Appian are workflow management and the ease with which you can build the UI."
"One of the most valuable features of Oracle BPM is the workflow itself. It is quite intuitive."
"Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes."
"The solution provides extensive functionalities."
"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."
"We selected this solution not only for the BPM but for the entire package."
"It has developmental accelerators, which allow for virtually any customization needs which you may require."
"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."
"I find the data lineage features most valuable."
"Appian could improve their customer-facing initiatives."
"Sometimes, clients expect us to implement ERP using Appian, which is very complicated. In such cases, I don't believe that Appian is a good tool for that."
"Something I would like to see improved is an SQL database connection."
"There should be more flexibility for the developers to choose the look and feel of the UI. They should have a better ability to design their widgets and customize them with different colors, shapes, and sizes. That is a limitation that could be improved upon."
"The solution needs more features. For example, a way to connect to our viewing database, to record, and more interface and component design."
"The ability of the interface to load automatic data is not great."
"Lacks integration with other products."
"The UI of Appian is more internal. Recently, there has been an addition of an external user portal for the customer-facing stuff. It's still coming out."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems."
"Oracle BPM is hard to configure."
"It could have easier administration. It takes time to configure and deploy."
"Pricing is an area that could use improvement."
"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."
"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."
