SAP NetWeaver BPM vs. Zuri

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.

Workflow automation where you need business resiliency adjusting processes during time to enhance client experience. Zuri is easy. It allows easy updates on stablished (simple and robust!) processes to enhance the workflow. Operations Eficiency gets focus on reducing the human hours and human errors in communications (e-mails), manuals tasks such as spreadsheets and data treatments, all types of repetitive tasks can be automated. Easy, simple and fast by non technical people. Scenarios where you need to automate workflows to ensure qualify and controlling the progresses and productivity of teams, people and organizations. Dashboards and reports specifically created for my own KPIs and goals. I could benefit from more business intelligence, getting my operations data structured (structurated data) and then used Analytics to better understand where and how to improve my operations to: increase client experience, improve profit margins while I was decreasing costs and waist.

• 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.

• Workflow automation made simple and fast by non technical people.
• Hyperautomation (technology and processes orchestration).
• Visual and intuitive interface developed for citizen developers and IT teams.
• Accelerate the automation solutions development by IT teams (from simple to complex).

• Live readings would be nice.
• Easier to maneuver
• Work with all systems with the press of one keystroke

• AI can be slightly improved.
• Process mining can be slightly improved.

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

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.

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.

We tried other options, saw many demos, some customized, and used some Trials. Zuri was faster and simpler to model processes and activate the automation solutions. Zuri does now require technical knowledge to automate processes. Business people (citizen developers) can easily create their own automations in simple way, in minutes. Despite, Zuri is less expensive. And, it is used by entire organization, not only IT teams. Although IT teams have the governance (full governance and control - including auditing reports ready in clicks) the business people are on the spot too. IT teams use it to accelerate (faster and better, more controlled!) automation solutions (from simple to complex - all with drag and drop feature) the business people (Sales, Marketing, HR, Suppliers, Logistics...) they can easily automate their processes without the waiting time until IT team can deliver what is needed today.

• 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

• ROI was around 7 to 9x the second option we had.
• Less expensive than other BPMS tools (options), very fast to implement.
• Additionally, this is a BPMS tool that is used by all organization, not only IT teams.
• Democratized expertise on automation leaving IT team free for more strategic projects rather than creating processes/workflow automation solutions for businesses teams.
