    at real time use I found is easy to use. if your algorithms is up to the point then you can extract a strong data accOrding to your strategy .which required for your R&D.and after using process Mining we converted passive clients into active and now were delivering them best service.

    The software is robust enough to handle highly complex software development or other product development and can be used well beyond the range to do what a client needs. However, because of the inability to hold its users to proper best practices, things can get wildly out of hand and cascade over the years, creating unnecessary technical debt. The system has a lot of usable features, but they don't funnel users toward the correct processes and practices.

    • This software identifies bottlenecks very quickly.
    • Real-time monitoring prevents future problems from occurring and is quickly fixed.
    • Professional technical support team attentive to our needs.

    Cons
    IBM
    • It is not software with good scalability, I do not see improvements in its very advanced constants in its updates.
    • The central structure of this tool has made it difficult to use.
    • Everything works as it should when it is implemented for the development of new projects.

    • I feel like it is too heavy sometimes and updating is not very straight forward. For example, if I want to change an incident ticket (IN) to a service request (SR) and add some comment for the change, I have to first change the IN to SR, then click refresh which takes a few seconds, then add a comment. If I forget the refresh step, my comment will be discarded without warning like my ticket is not in the latest status. This also happens when somebody else changes the ticket during my edit as I can not lock the ticket exclusively.

    I think it is the best process mining software that can currently exist, others are similar, but do not meet our expectations, we will use it for a long time, it is a system that makes us productive with minimal manual effort, the quality of the results they are amazing.

    At the moment we are required by contract to continue to use the IBM DOORS software for our current client. Given that it can be expensive, if we were to use it after our current client's needs were met, we would have to secure other projects in order to justify the continued use of the software.

    Usability
    IBM
    The initial integration/configuration is complex and hence takes time. Once integrated it is very easy and nice to use. We can have the analytics with a very user-friendly dashboard. It provides detailed information which helps in finding causes and hence in improvement. I would say it is a very nice and user-friendly tool.

    The UI is terrible and not intuitive. Users need training in order to complete tasks. Much like SAP, it's not the clearest tool. The tracing feature is especially complicated because you must write the scripts yourself. There is a learning curve. Also, even the setup, installation, and logging in each time takes a considerable amount of time.

    We have received all the detailed documentation and requested information even on Friday evenings. The tutorials and examples are great for starting the implementation and optimizing it a long the way to the required custom internal needs. If needed, there is also the option to book a consultation with an IBM specialist which can recommend the proper processes of implementation.

    It does a basic job and has the potential to complete some robust reporting tasks, however, it really is a clunky piece of software with a terrible user interface that makes using it routinely quite unpleasant. Many of our legacy and maintenance projects still use DOORS but our department and company use many alternatives and are looking for better tools.

    It was easier to do all the change management-related activities, even configurations were handled very effectively. New process definitions and initiatives made it easier for better project deliverables. Effective resource allocations and better reporting and defect management. The overall cost of the tool is great too and well within budget.

    Return on Investment
    IBM
    • Disbursement and vendor payments are only two examples of the kind of routine processes that might benefit greatly from being automated.
    • IBM Process Mining has helped us better understand our consumers by revealing patterns of behavior that can be explained by the use of AI.
    • By automatically detecting, verifying, and bettering workflows, IBM Process Mining helps me locate inefficiencies and opportunities. That makes it simple to distribute assets where they will have the greatest impact, boosting return on investment.

    • It's part of CLM suite so it can be used to manage the whole lifecycle with tight integration with development module (Rational Team Concert) and quality module (Rational Quality Manager).
    • Comprehensive reports and dashboards provide better visibility.
    • License cost is on higher side.
