We performed a comparison between BizFlow, IBM BPM, and IBM Case Foundation based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."There are so many advantages. First things, like we have a seamless automation capability available here in BizFlow. Totally customizable, UI we can create, and the third-party integration is also achievable. Not with the in-built functionality, but with custom code and all, we can achieve that thing also."
"It helps maintain, and in many instances, lower costs, as well as to maintain those costs, keeping them stable."
"The system integration layer is valuable because this enables an organization to create a single point where all the key organizational master data is held in different IT applications across different functions, that can be accessed and updated."
"The designer feature, compared to other solutions is easy to use."
"It is a very powerful solution."
"This is one of the best tools to support the business and the way we work, and the numerous processes we need to implement."
"The integration and design are valuable features."
"It is efficient in reducing costs."
"Good user interface and good add option."
"The solution is scalable."
"It's very easy."
"The most valuable feature is its stability, which is why we are using it."
"The most valuable features are those involving decision making, analysis, and anything related to event documents because those processes are related to content as well."
"Case Foundation provides a strong security boost."
"The client and the IBM content navigation are the solution's most valuable features."
"It provides us the capability of producing business processes for documents that are launched immediately when a document comes into the repository."
"The content management is great."
"Nintex provided an in-built functionality. Like integration-related things, so many service types are available. You just have to configure it. So, such kinds of things decrease the timing of development. So, it is missing in Bizflow."
"The initial setup process is complex for basic users."
"You must have good experience to work with it. It is not that easy. Its installation is complex, especially in the new version for business automation, and it could be improved. It has a safety application embedded inside it, and you need to do a lot of configuration to install it. I have been working for two days to resolve an issue."
"IBM BPM lacks openness, that is, the ability to become open for new options in terms of APIs, front-end development, and ecosystem. IBM BPM has been quite closed. One of the main improvements would be to somehow embed the rules engine into IBM BPM. Merging IBM BRMS and the rules engine with IBM BPM would be helpful. If there was some simpler way to define rules without having to put IBM BRMS on top of it, it would be good. It's something that we can get out of Camunda but not out of IBM BPM."
"I would like to see a lot more case studies."
"Needs better reporting. I do not think that we are fully taking advantage of what it already has yet."
"The interface is limited and should improve in the future."
"Initial setup is very complex. Too many steps need to be done at the database and server levels, and complex configurations. From what I see, a lot of these steps can be and should be automated."
"The setup was quite complex because the solution was cutting-edge at that time and IBM invested considerably in the implementation, likely at a loss to themselves."
"90% of the feedback we receive states that the UI is not very user-friendly."
"The solution can be quite expensive."
"The interface needs to be more user-friendly."
"The cloud version could use more stability."
"There is a need for more open and flexible integration capabilities, allowing seamless collaboration with a broader spectrum of business process management solutions, beyond the confines of IBM's document management offerings."
"Comparing the solution with other interfaces, IBM BPM is much better than Case Foundation. They need to make this solution's interface more user-friendly."
"The place of improvement is merging or combining all of the workflow functionality into one seamless tool. Now, there are multiple installations that are different. Case Foundation, before you can put Case Manager and you've got IBM BPM, and the roadmap is there to merge them altogether. But that's the struggle at the moment, it's having multiple installations and disparate workflow applications."
"IBM needs to update the user interfaces of all its products to make them more intuitive and accessible to beginners. Compared to Microsoft products, IBM solutions are less user-friendly. IBM programs are hard to master. It's a problem in my region because it's hard to find IT staff who can work with IBM."
