Verified User Anonymous Chose SAP 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.

User Testimonials
	SAP NetWeaver BPM	WEBCON BPS
Likelihood to Recommend	If your organization is heavily invested in SAP as an enterprise wide solution already, BPM is really your only option. Solid, seamless integration, smooth workflow, and data trails for business analysis are impeccable. If you aren't already heavily invested, key questions to ask would be - Am I using too big a hammer? The results are impressive, no doubt, but the integration of BPM is demanding. A less-demanding, more intutive tool like Winshuttle or even AR Projekt that hooks in to SAP might be a simpler option Verified User Anonymous Read full review	WEBCOM Business Process Suite is very well suited for all of our areas of business. Gregory Gawkowski CTO Read full review
Pros	Integrated well with SAP ERP/CRM Comes with adequate tools that help define business rules/processes and also monitoring them and managing exceptions Incentivized SS Shiv Shivakumar Acquisitions Leader Read full review	Easy to develop, doesn't require high end programming crew. Short learning curve for end user. Easy to integrate with legacy technologies. Gregory Gawkowski CTO Read full review
Cons	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	The configuration of the user interface is sometimes not so flexible. However, it can be developed from the (fully flexible then). Dominik Cholewiński Project Manager / DEV/OPS Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	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	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	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	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	I found the initial setup of NetWeaver is much simpler than other products especially in an SAP environment where we have SAP ERP/HRM/CRM as it can be well integrated with other SAP products. The only drawback is the need/dependency on SAP Portal. It is better suited in an environment where SAP ERP is running.

Return on Investment	I don't handle ROI so I cannot tell you that. It's definitely helpful for our business. Works across the organization.
