Easy to navigate and great for keeping everybody in the loop
Comindware is great for workflow management. It's user-friendly and trustworthy. You don't need technical skills to develop, maintain and update workflows. Using the intuitive web-based user interface of the visual workflow builder, you can design and set up workflows. Comindware Tracker is a good…

Mature product in terms of security and stable product
The architecture is a bit difficult, but in BAW, they introduced the Business Automation Workflow. It's a bit easier compared to Case Manager. Currently, we use Case Manager, so it's a bit difficult to upgrade and handle, but BAW is comparatively much better and easier to handle. The limitation is only for customization because IBM doesn't support it. In some scenarios, if you want some business processes to be customized, we have already spoken two or three times with IBM representatives that we have to customize some of the features in this business process. They would say that if you want to do this automation at your own end, then okay, fine, go ahead, but we are not supporting all this customization. The only thing is the customization because it's a complete standard application.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is that any non-technical personnel can easily work on the solution, redefining processes and creating drag and drop workflows according to the department or cross-department needs."
"The configurable dashboard analytics and reporting capabilities ensure timely decision making."
"I love this software because this software helps me to increase team productivity day-by-day.​"
"It successfully routes hand-offs between different teams, adds transparency to workflows, and has a set of social collaboration tools."
"The ability to access Comindware Tracker from mobile has been greatly valuable to our organization. We are often out of office and this can create timeframe and task management issues. Being able to access tasks and time tracking while on the move is a great asset."
"It provides a scalable solution that should allow me to grow my company without too much fuss or further set up required."
"This software makes it so easy and enjoyable to work with the team. Any user can learn and start using the application quickly."
"This software added transparency to our workflows. It helped with increasing throughput of clients and their satisfaction."
"Flexible and the ability to divide search screens, and to search for documents. The ECM feature inside the system is great."
"The client and the IBM content navigation are the solution's most valuable features."
"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."
"The content management is great."
"A valuable feature includes seamless integration with the document management system, along with robust capabilities in analytics and reporting."
"The only thing is that we can easily track where the application is in the process, from manual to automation."
"The most valuable feature is the content manager part of the file as it is very stable, robust, and reliable."
"The most valuable feature is its stability, which is why we are using it."
 

Cons

"I would like them to offer a one-time payment plan that one can choose."
"We are using the backdated version of this software. That is why we lack of some features. I hope when we update the version, then all the problems will be solved."
"If your organization has only a few team members then this tool is not suitable."
"The UX/UI could be reviewed and revamped to meet new the criteria of Digitalization and Innovation."
"The OpenAPI is good, but it is not enough. It lacks out-of-box integrations with popular web services."
"It would be wonderful to have newer version releases more frequently, but it is quite a minor con."
"This solution lacks API integration with some popular websites."
"The initial setup can be quite slow and finicky."
"Once a workflow is launched then it stays static forever, which is a problem because if there is a change in the business then you cannot change the workflow."
"​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.​"
"We are now using microservices but there are some areas where the coordination with FileNet is problematic."
"The cloud version could use more stability."
"The service as it currently stands is out-of-date and lacks flexibility."
"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."
"The solution can be quite expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price per user works for me when they do not count my clients, which fill forms."
"Setup cost is reasonable and average on the market. They offer simple licensing and price per user."
"Great value for the money."
"This solution has a very lost cost."
"The price is so reasonable."
"I benefit from this software by getting a variety of reporting options and features for a relatively low cost"
"The pricing and licensing is as per market standards, except that the process of extending licenses is also easy."
"IBM Case Foundation is a little expensive."
"This is not an expensive solution and we are using the standard license."
"The price falls in the middle range—not overly expensive but not extremely affordable either."
"Pricing is in the mid-range, it is not cheap, but it's not expensive."
