Verified User Analyst Chose SAP NetWeaver BPM While Winshuttle is comparable, they are really two different tools in that Winshuttle is a hang-on tool while BPM is a catalyst tool. With WS, workflows start in SAP, flow to Winshuttle, and back in SAP (at least with my limited experience). In BPM, everything is housed in the … Helpful?

User Testimonials
	SAP NetWeaver BPM
Likelihood to Recommend	SAP It is well suited when we need to integrate business processes with SAP ERP and SAP CRM - the solution can be integrated with business rules/procedures defined in SAP ERP/CRM and NetWeaver can be used to monitor the rules and flag off exceptions. When there are multiple workflows running, it tends to slow down running of these processes. Also, it entirely depends on SAP portal for it to run efficiently.

Pros	SAP Virtual paper trail. Iterations of process and current documentation are all stored as "artifacts", leaving a great trail. Configuration of users. BPM somewhat magically determines which users will be impacted and automates rules. A pro (that is also a con) is the design interface. If you know what you are doing, it is incredibly powerful and malleable. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	SAP Live readings would be nice. Easier to maneuver Work with all systems with the press of one keystroke Incentivized Stephanie Chapman Team Leader Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	SAP As a big fan of SAP in general, the BPM solution fits right in with all the other things SAP does well, and does it with incredible efficiency Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	SAP We have our own tech support for systems, I would say they probably could use more training on it, I don't really think it's anything regarding the SAP system, but more the knowledge they have on the system itself. It seems to take longer for them to fix any issues we may come across. Incentivized Stephanie Chapman Team Leader Read full review

Return on Investment	SAP Helped us harness integrated benefit from having SAP ERP/CRM by leveraging NetWeaver to define business processes/rules and monitor exceptions Did not have any negative experience except for the fact that at times when multiple rules run, it can be somewhat slow Incentivized SS Shiv Shivakumar Acquisitions Leader Read full review
