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."It has a lot of flexibility, and Microsoft does come up with some new additions from time to time."
"It's all now on cloud subscription, so you can use all the features without worrying about making the system updates patches."
"The most valuable features are collaboration, traceability, retention of documents, and search."
"The fact that it allows for the internal sharing of information is very good."
"The collaborative environment for long-term archival or record management is great."
"In terms of its most valuable features, this solution, in general, will provide all you need and it's very convenient to use. We can share our details to collaborative platforms. We can give access to users. It's pretty flexible."
"OpenText 360's best features are platform independence and its performance when searching large numbers of documents."
"The product has a strong and easy integration with Teams."
"The development is very fast. If you know what you're doing, you can develop something very easily and very fast."
"One [of the most valuable features] is the webMethods Designer. That helps our developers develop on their own. It's very intuitive for design. It helps our developers to speed the development of services for the integrations."
"The ease of mapping... is the single largest feature. It gives us the ability to craft anything. A lot of single-purpose technologies, like Mirth, are good for healthcare messages, but we use webMethods not only for healthcare messages but for other business-related purposes, like integrations to Salesforce or integrations to Office 365. It's multi-purpose nature is very strong."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"I would say the core Web-based integrations work the best. They are the most efficient and robust implementations one can do with webMethods."
"Most of the work in our organization can be more easily done using the tool."
"It is a very stable product."
"We have a reusable code that we can replicate for any new interfaces."
"If I have to really create an internal knowledge management portal, if I have to compare SharePoint and WordPress, WordPress is far, far better in regard to the SharePoint option."
"They are not going for any add-ons right now. It's the same version we are still using and there is no plan of upgrading and/or creating any add-ons at all."
"Integration is an area where the solution lacks."
"The user interface could definitely be improved."
"An area for improvement would be how the platform handles large volumes of documents. It also doesn't provide a very good, robust backup and restore capacity. In the next release, I would like the search technology to be improved."
"We have a very good time to market tool, and the development platform should be made user-friendly. Mostly, it's just support."
"OpenText 360 is generally stable, though there are sometimes issues with document size or format."
"They need to come with more out of the box solutions, rather than depending on customers to develop them."
"A while ago, they were hacked, and it took them a very long time to open their website again in order to download any service packs or any features. I don't know what they could do differently. I know that they were vulnerable, and there was some downtime, but because they were down, we were unable to download any potential service packs."
"The price should be reduced to make it more affordable."
"Business monitoring (BAM) needs improvement because the analytics and prediction module very often has performance problems."
"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."
"The certifications and learning resources are not exposed openly enough. For instance, they have a trial version which comes with only a few basic features, and I think that community-wise they need to offer more free or open spaces where developers can feel encouraged to experiment."
"In terms of improvement, it would be better if it adapted quicker to open standards. It took a while for API specification before the last version was available. The spec of version two was rather quick."
"As webMethods Integration Server is expensive, that's its area for improvement."
"One area that needs improvement is the version upgrade process. Many customers I've worked with encounter challenges when transitioning from their current version, such as x or 9, to a newer version. The process is not smooth, and they must shift their entire website."
