ELMA365 vs. TIBCO® BPM Enterprise

I would recommend ELMA365 to all small to medium-sized businesses who want to automate their processes and therefore increase transparency and manageability.

TIBCO ActiveMatrix is most useful for teams that need help mapping out their processes with other, co-dependent teams. It makes that conversation happen in a logical, structured way. The software is also helpful for professionals that need more data visualization in their business. On the opposite side, the software is not useful for really small businesses. It’s not worth the money.

• With Typescript scenarios, the system is rather flexible and provides tools to implement complicated business logic.
• They have very client-oriented support. Every time we face a problem they are ready to help.
• Easy to start using the system for both analysts and users.

• Workspace and Openspace Console that offers a powerful method for troubleshooting and viewing the routing within a process

• Powerful IDE to design a business process as a TIBCO Business Studio BPM Edition
• Testing and Debugging

• no request is missed
• you can see the approval status at any moment
• you only need your browser in order to work

• A little bit too conservative. Not really anything leading edge. [Tibco] has plenty of customers, and that means they will probably be around forever, but [product enhancements] seem to be more [abundant in competitor product offerings].
• It would be great to have some pre-defined themes. Pie chart labels - it would be great to get more options for sizing and placement.
• I find it hard to trust the online portal too much. I doubt the security that is offered by this software.

They have a free trial. Took 5 minutes for me to set up my own pages in the system. So if you are considering it, give it a try and see if it works for you.

For BPM we looked at some IBM products suites, BPM Online, Oracle products and Pega Systems. The decision to go with AMX BPM was based on the evaluation by the software architect team and the cost of acquiring the TIBCO suites.

• Time for processing sick leave has been reduced from 1 week to 2 days
• All the employees communicate quickly with each other online

• In order to create a BPM management, you need to make a very solid data management model, which becomes very important in its reuse
• The business process is very often unconnected with the implementation logic and therefore plays in favor of the re-usability of the software
• Large customization at log level for which managing these tools can be handled minimizing effort
