Gazelle PMS (discontinued) vs. Oracle BPM Suite

Anyone unable to find software specific to their needs- look no further. Gazelle Platform will suit you. The staffing world is suited as there are more variables than one person and one client. There are more variables. This software would cover anything but is maybe not needed for a simple user. This is to solve the problem of dynamics being outside the norm.

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.

• Adaptability - open to the complex world of staffing
• Highly responsive
• Quick turnaround on edits and initial set up

• Oracle BPM [Suite] can support unlimited number of cases. No limitations in cases raised.
• Oracle Weblogic can handle multiple traffic. [It] can handle lots of heavy load[s].
• Oracle BPM has extensive integration with database[s]. Huge number[s] of customization can be created.

Incentivized

• Complicated dashboard
• Too many options for different parts of the process on one page

• 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.

Not easy to debug errors.

Overall satisfactory

Gazelle Platform is much more advanced and user-friendly for a candidate scheduling multiple events. This triggers our candidates to easily schedule more interviews which is exactly what we need to save time and secure the candidate a job. Gazelle Platform is the only available software for what we needed. It’s not a simple calendar, it’s use is complex which is what was needed at my last staffing job.

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.

Incentivized

• Gazelle Platform saves us time on taking calls for appointments for multiple location job interviews from many candidates looking for work.
• This has freed up a customer service rep to assist with other duties, so the ROI is positive.
• The initial cost of the Gazelle Platform is made up immediately, as the software will save you so much time and manpower.

• 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.
