    The tool has potential. Its capabilities and visual aspects could be considered rather basic but this might improve, particularly if the business intelligence/analytics aspect is leveraged. Once running well, it could allow (perhaps smaller) companies to successfully improve their customers' experiences through digitalizing customer journey - and we all know that customer loyalty goes a long way. However, whether or not the tool is comprehensive enough to deliver this for larger companies with more complex, multi- and omni-channel interactions is yet to be seen...

    Oracle BPM is well suited to organizations and environments that have a good understanding of their business processes and organizational structures. Trying to introduce a tool such as Oracle BPM into the organization without a good grasp on how the business operates is a recipe for disaster as the implementation will uncover all of the dirty secrets of an organizations business processes and bring them to light. BPM is not to be utilized for smaller service orchestrations or technical service implementations, these should be handled by the Oracle SOA Suite using the BPEL process manager, leaving BPM to handle the organizational business processes, referring to and including lower level services and BPEL processes as needed.

    TIBCO Cloud Nimbus is a business app for process documentation. It gives visualization of how people, processes and systems should interact. People from your organization can generate diagrams and how things should be processed. Good for technical and IT people to draw up diagrams so they know what they can follow for their IT process. Good for big IT teams. Could be little complex for some people. Might not feed everyone's needs but it's helpful for IT teams that want to document and diagram their technical work. You can create a step-by-step workflow management for tech people and also have non technical people follow the diagrams. It takes some time but you get the hang of it sooner or later.

    Oracle
    • Oracle BPM is left behind by other tools more modern in terms of user experience, usability and ability to integrate with everything else.
    • To really harvest the potential of Oracle BPM you need to do it in JDeveloper and with ADF. This restricts its usage to very technical people.
    • The administration of the Oracle BPM tools has really put a burden on our team. It is running on Weblogic and we experience issues very often either with performance or with a bad configuration of the system.
    • As with all Oracle products, the price can be an issue for smaller shops.

    In many scenarios it should have provided more features. It took a lot of effort while debugging, making it difficult to maintain.

    We evaluated Bonita and found that it might fit a smaller-sized company better; we found that Oracle BPM Suite scaled much more evenly. We almost went with one of the competitors, but in the end chose Oracle BPM Suite after we factored in the cost of VMware licensing. There are literally tons of analytics on the back end which are great for upper management, but not so much for average users, but this fits our business model quite well.

    Return on Investment
    Aurea
    • As our customers vary in size and maturity, the ROI ranges accordingly.
    • For younger, smaller businesses this is a useful tool. Digitalization of he customer journey has certainly helped save time and efforts in many cases.
    • For more mature market players the tool is not always comprehensive enough. Dashboard and report personalization take time and efforts, and sometimes it feels that a dedicated BI tool would be a more suitable solution.

    • You'll most certainly need a deep dive and extensive training before your users can even think of using the product and they are very expensive.
    • Lack of documentation makes it very difficult to manage the application if any error is encountered which will result in you ending up hiring a dedicated person to look into the application once it's deployed.
    • For a very large org., if properly implemented and used, it can help identify the cost-intensive and inefficient processes.
