It is a very stable and scalable product without downtime.
I suggest that before you purchase a solution, you understand their business well, and before selecting a supplier to understand what they are targeting. Too many companies go into this with complex procedures and processes,not understanding it and trying to model it as it goes. So, in the end, they end up with a solution that it is not what they aimed for in the beginning.
Mohammed Almalki - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good case management and its integration with process design but there's a learning curve
If you're already an IBM shop with the necessary skills and personnel, then I would recommend using it. However, it requires a yearly investment. So, if you're prepared for that, then go for it. New users will need at least six months to get comfortable with IBM BPM, at least initially. So, there's a learning curve. Overall, I would rate the solution a seven out of ten. Two main reasons: the skillset required to manage it and its integration complexity.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is very stable. There is no downtime."
"The new reporting and the new dashboard features are really good."
"The functionality to design UI to be responsive and can run on multiple devices."
"IBM BPM and Automation Anywhere working together automate manual tasks with a reduction in FTEs, creating about a 30% reduction in FTEs by automating processes."
"Our customers use the solution as a workflow platform to manage their processes."
"The initial setup process is easy."
"It provides a very robust environment to build an integration framework or workflow patterns that we have. A lot of changes or modifications have been made to this solution over the past few years. The features that they have added this time have helped developers like us to work on the developmental environment and leverage all the capabilities of the tool. This is what I like about this solution."
"The solution is more customizable than IBM FileNet."
"Everything is coupled together and comes as one solution."
"Scalability is good. In the time that I have been there, we have added more JVMs to help with the increased workload, so it does scale."
 

Cons

"The setup and configuration is complex."
"The design of the interface, in general, could be improved. It could be a bit more user-friendly."
"Needs better reporting. I do not think that we are fully taking advantage of what it already has yet."
"I would say the scalability is very good but it's not perfect. It is much more scalable than it has been in the past but... it does require some work to keep it stable. So that is an area that should be improved."
"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."
"We care about technology and support because support is very important and a BPM is not easy to implement."
"Performance on large scale requirements could also be improved."
"One suggestion for IBM BPM is to provide better integration between their products, such as DataCap, which we use for scanning. Although the new CP4BA offers offline capabilities, not everyone is on CP4BA, so enhanced integration for those on older versions would be beneficial."
"User Interface components could be further refined to enhance and extend customizations dictated by end clients."
"If the processing gets better, it would be more efficient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"IBM BPM cannot be considered a cheaply priced product. IBM BPM is a really expensive product compared to other companies. One needs to opt for the perpetual licensing model offered by IBM."
"Price wise, IBM BPM is cheaper than other similar solutions and has excellent pricing."
"It is pricey."
"Due to its extensive features and capabilities, the product pricing is more aligned with medium—to large enterprises."
"We have a yearly licensing model. It is not expensive. There are no addition costs to the standard license."
"It gives us a good return on investment."
"Licensing is managed by the client, but we know it is yearly. Camunda is relatively cheaper. There is not much difference in pricing of IBM and PEGA. For large licensing, there are discounts as well."
"Its price is on the higher side, and it can be improved. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There are no additional costs."
