We performed a comparison between IBM BPM and Newgen OmniFlow 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."Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"There is a component of this BPM pool - I can't recall the name. What it does is, it allows you to create various scenarios and then run them quickly, before actually putting them onto a tool. So I think that part of the tool is really fantastic, because that enables you to create scenarios, create simulations, before actually going out and putting it into the tool itself"
"The installation was straightforward."
"IBM BPM should become cloud-native. It should also add a cloud deployment feature."
"It helps maintain, and in many instances, lower costs, as well as to maintain those costs, keeping them stable."
"The performance is fine."
"IBM BPM is easy to deploy."
"Provides the power to understand and automate processes."
"They are a good team that is proactive, and they are trying to accommodate all of our requirements."
"The most valuable feature for us is the Omnicon. That made sense for us because our company is now able to capture information from documents."
"The most valuable features of Newgen OmniFlow are the user interface, the low-code no-code designer tools, and the integration models are important."
"Newgen will structure the system based on all the requirements of the business. We can design the forms as complex forms or make our own versions to fix what's wrong."
"It is working fine so far. I haven't heard anything bad about it from the applications team that is using it, so I assume that it is doing okay."
"The UI is easy. It's not very code based, so you can make certain changes on your end."
"The most valuable feature is the flexibility in using it."
"From the testing perspective and minor enhancements perspective, customization is something that is a little tedious as compared to new tools. In addition, various open-source tools that are available are not working with IBM BPM."
"Stability wavers. We have some opportunities for improvement in this space, especially as we approach our target volume of a million transactions a day. It is tough, because it is not necessarily the product. It is more around the platform and infrastructure to support it, so the connectivity to the database, web sessions, and reverse proxies in front of that."
"If you want to use IBM BPM, you will have to invest a lot of money for licenses and you need to learn that there are limitations in developing applications. You cannot create anything you want."
"There is room for improvement in the stability."
"We thought there might have been a little more discussion early on about, "Hey, if you're doing this, set it up this way," or some best practices or some guidance that we didn't get."
"Needs better reporting. I do not think that we are fully taking advantage of what it already has yet."
"I'd like the tool to be more flexible."
"I believe that if the license were cheaper, it would have a greater impact."
"At the system level, I would like to see things be much more flexible, especially for different document templates and introducing changes."
"Newgen OmniFlow could improve by having more out-of-the-box integration modules. It would be beneficial to have an analytics model that is not currently present."
"There should be some reporting and dashboarding capabilities. I don't see such capabilities built into it. Sometimes, the leadership wants to understand the business cases that we want to automate. We face a lot of challenges to justify why we are using Newgen, and we need a way to present that to the leadership. If there is something out of the box and if we can get meaningful dashboards and reporting capabilities, it would be helpful."
"The development teams should be more agile and they need to have more team members."
"I would like to see more automated analytics built into the solution."
"We had consistent issues of Newgen OmniFlow crashing. It's not compatible with bounce browsers like Chrome."
"In terms of stability, like every product it has its issues."
