IBM Blueworks Live vs. OpenText MBPM

I can say it is not only good but it is best Automation tool ever. Its streamline our business project and with web based solution it allows my team to document existing or new processes using process mapping capabilities. It provides powerful analytics and it is easy to use via online. I personally feel it is very intutive. For less Appropriate I can say only in terms of integration perspective with different CRM tools. Rest is all good!!!!

Metastorm is well-suited for scenarios in which internal stress testing an application is needed in a hurry before showcasing it to potential customers. It supports different views of the process from Swimlane perspective, so different methodologies can be handled. It is an Enterprise level tool and handles both small and large projects quite well, although smaller companies may be stressed out by the amount of time it takes to properly maintain the application.

• Easy to create process diagrams quickly, while collaborating with others.

• In particular, we have had problems with the availability of the service because the platform frequently crashed.
• Is not easy to pull some indicators.
• We would like to be able to see a different interface, long ago with the same.
• Payment process is not easy.

• The Metastorm process engine is based on an older version of .NET. Updating to a newer version would resolve several known issues with .NET email functionality.
• Metastorm builds web pages at run time. While the UI presented to the end user is fine, the Document Object Model is convoluted and subject to change with new releases. Providing a more simplified DOM or at very least a custom function to replace document.getElementById() would make client-side scripting a much more powerful tool.
• One function that I've seen Metastorm competitors do well, is email wizards. Having a WYSIWYG email editor would be really nice.

There are other products that seem to be a better fit for future initiatives.

Blueworks Live was part of a project deal. We did not keep it after the project. We found there are many solutions offering similar or superior capabilities - the fact that Blueworks does not fully support the universal BPMN standard was a big letdown for us. The pricing also did not make sense as a standalone solution.

We found that OpenText MBPM held its own quite well against IBM BPM. We ended up choosing OpenText MBPM due to the analytics, complex routing, and the ease of SOA service integration. Furthermore, the ability to quickly develop simple User interfaces make this tool a daily component of our most-used toolbox components.
