We performed a comparison between IBM BPM and IIS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Infrastructure solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This solution is very stable."
"Our customers use the solution as a workflow platform to manage their processes."
"IBM BPM is stable."
"We have automated processes with IBM BPM and DocuSign. Its valuable features include low-code, timer, etc. It makes it simple to implement the products. We generate reports using the solution."
"We use it for automating certain processes which previously took a lot of time for agents to set up different products for customers. They would have to enter a lot of different systems. This has now mostly been automated."
"The reach with Integration Adapters and support for adding custom Java code are valuable features."
"The solution is stable."
"The installation was straightforward."
"It helps scan and mitigates our vulnerabilities using the best protocols to secure our environment."
"The solution is the easiest way to publish applications which have been designed by older development tools."
"The solution has been reliable."
"The interface, simplicity, and ease of management are all good features that make this user-friendly."
"The initial setup is simple."
"IIS is easy to configure in terms of websites and other solutions."
"The product is flexible."
"The solution is very easy to use and offers a quick deployment."
"We care about technology and support because support is very important and a BPM is not easy to implement."
"I would like to see the front-end support improved because it should be fully integrated and supported."
"The initial setup can be tricky because IBM BPM is not based on a popular stack, and it's difficult to hire a developer for this product."
"The constant switch between Eclipse and its web versions can be annoying and confusing."
"The engine itself tends to accumulate a lot of data that needs to be cleaned up, and that's the kind of thing that keeps it from, in some scenarios, scaling as much as it needs to. And then, when you're building solutions, if you're not careful to keep the screens from being associated with too much data, if you're going to just do things the way that a lot of people would just assume that they can do, without having experience of having made those mistakes before, it will accumulate a lot of data, and that will cause it to perform very badly."
"The front end is not customised for a good user experience."
"IBM BPM needs to have a better and modified interface."
"I have an interest around the robotic piece, and integrating that with the processes. I think that is certainly a good direction to be going."
"Occasionally, we encounter performance issues with IIS where it becomes unresponsive and requires a solution restart."
"The user interface could be improved."
"If Microsoft IIS could work well with AppOptics or things like PHP, Python, and other custom languages that run on the webserver, it would be ideal. I think there are cases where people need to use Apache instead of IIS when IIS doesn't work well with other web languages."
"The solution's black box is not fast."
"Having no support for other than a Microsoft environment and programming languages limits the usage of IIS in many cases."
"IIS has some stability issues and needs restarting."
"The documentation is not very detailed. They need to improve it and add to it. They should ensure there are lots of visuals to help users better understand the solution."
"The areas of this solution that need improvement are monitoring, debugging, and troubleshooting."
