IBM Blueworks Live Valuable Features
The ease of documenting and digitizing the processes was valuable to us. Most of our clients were using Microsoft Office tools to document their processes. They were not centralized repositories. We recommended and sold the solution as a single source of complete enterprise processes, including integrating metamodels like controls, roles, or application systems. It also had unified repository access so everyone could see a single source of truth. That was our major use case where we used to sell IBM Blueworks.

The solution allows us to automate processes but also be able to seamlessly create a process with little effort compared to Visio, which we used years prior.
When using Visio, it takes a lot of time to design a process flow whereas the IBM Blueworks Live tool makes it easier to quickly design a flow.
The IBM Blueworks Live tool allows you to add key details to every step within your process design. For example, we were mapping a process that utilizes a number of forms. We were able to attach those forms and even legislation associated with particular steps within the process. This enabled the team to review these inputs in relation to streamlining the process.

It's very easy, very quick to create a process map. It has templates. The look and feel is very nice. What we want to achieve out of the process map, we can achieve it using Blueworks.
