We do not depend on have documentation in personal computers, everything is available with an internet connection, this allowsus to work in a collaborative way without losing any detail of the process and managing the different versions and relationships between processes and spaces. We can also use single terms and concepts among the processes.

Unfortunately our instance of IBM Blueworks Live was not well implemented. Our implementation partners had their "live" documents in their own site, and not our own site. The process of copying their versions to ours was cumbersome and costly. Had we insisted they build their workflows in our instance I can see this would have been a very powerful tool.

storing business processes and associated documentation in a single map repository has been a major benefit to using IBM Blueworks Live.
It saves us from having to use and configure additional servers to manage our policies and documents as well as making it easy to access and view / use / update from anywhere using just your web browser (and not requiring a laptop with specific software installed).

IAs IBM Cloudworks is a cloud-based software which enables access to all business processes from anywhere and eliminates versioning issues with a single card repository. In my team Data can be accessed by multiple team members without having to share it with each user individually which is the best thing ever. It saves a lot of our time and provides high quality data. The platform provides on-call collaboration between team members in my organization, including all process model developers, to collaborate, document and improve initiatives.

IBM Blueworks feature of single repository is must to have during current business model.
It helped the insurance business by accessing policy , claim or any other documentation from any place in just no time. This also helps in change management of documentation and version control during different underwriters or agents/brokers or claim adjusters staff works at the same time.

Using IBM Blueworks Live's single spot for storing all our processes and documents has really made things smoother for us. I can grab any process info I need from anywhere, which is a huge help. It's made sharing know-how across the team a breeze, especially when we're bringing new team members/clients on board.

We use it as the source of truth for process details such as handoffs between roles, systems, etc. We haven't yet fully realized the potential of these features, however, as we still store a lot of documentation outside of IBM Blueworks Live.

Having a single repository for business processes and associated documentation ensures that all authorized users can access the latest and most accurate information from anywhere with an internet connection. This centralized access promotes collaboration and real-time updates. Teams across different departments or locations can collaborate seamlessly within the centralized repository. This collaborative environment fosters communication, knowledge sharing, and collective decision-making on process improvements.

Our control of the mapping process has improved exponentially. What was once stored in folders, emails, or files is now centralized with version control and updates, along with detailed change tracking and recording. Everything is in a single, transparent environment accessible via the Internet for all those involved in the work. This has resulted in time savings in execution and an enhancement in the quality of the work performed.

Our organization has benefited from this because it's accessible from anywhere. Our organization's previous application did not have a single repository, so it would make things a lot less convenient. It is also convenient not having to log in multiple times because it is all in one place!

Our organization is currently leveraging the IBM Blueworks Live accross different departments which allows us a great collaboration, I would even say a flexible and controlled collaboration, far from the previous versioning issues we had in the past with classic repository tools. The admin effort is also minimal which enables the focus on the added value work.

Having documents stored in a single repository has made things for us very easy. We don't have to search within different folders to find what we are looking for. Since everything is all stored in one location, documents are easy to locate which helps us be that much more efficient.

Blueworks Live has all the standard process management capabilities you would expect from it. Any business process you build can be easily shared with others and has its own lifecycle (draft, approved, etc.). You can easily sort and order them in a structured process hierarchy, and version everything the way you like it. There are also numerous import/export functionalities that allow you to quickly start building your repository.

First, we benefit by sharing different implementations of RPA and by enhancing knowledge sharing between the different teams of our OU [organization].The second benefit is increasing training paths of new colleagues (always in our OU). The third benefit is increasing customer knowledge and confidence during the development phase. Fourth benefit is reducing effort in order to produce project documentation and to manage changes.
