Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The content management is great.""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.""It provides us the capability of producing b​​usiness processes for documents that are launched immediately when a document comes into the repository.""The client and the IBM content navigation are the solution's most valuable features.""It is easy to set up workflows that notify the user depending on certain events.""The most valuable feature is its stability, which is why we are using it.""A valuable feature includes seamless integration with the document management system, along with robust capabilities in analytics and reporting.""It's very easy."

"The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work.""It has developmental accelerators, which allow for virtually any customization needs which you may require.""The most valuable feature is the complete workflow through the BPM, from making it available as a generated code based on the backend, deploying it in the test environment, and then going to production.""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 default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace.""The benefit from the tool is we can develop it quickly and easily use it for middleware services. We can publish the services so other applications can consume them. This is providing us some reusability and a type of security.""The solution provides extensive functionalities.""The initial setup is straightforward."

Cons
"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.""90% of the feedback we receive states that the UI is not very user-friendly.""There are some features that could be enhanced like the document viewer""We are now using microservices but there are some areas where the coordination with FileNet is problematic.""​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.​""The solution can be quite expensive.""The cloud version could use more stability.""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."

More IBM Case Foundation Cons →

"Pricing is an area that could use improvement.""Their Case Management set of features is severely lacking and should be a target for immediate improvement dealing with unpredictable processes inside of organizations.""It could have easier administration. It takes time to configure and deploy.""It would be good if they could provide some additional connectors or an application developer environment for microservices.""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.""You have to maintain it manually.""The product must reduce its cost.""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."
