TIBCO® BPM Enterprise vs. WEBCON BPS

TIBCO ActiveMatrix is most useful for teams that need help mapping out their processes with other, co-dependent teams. It makes that conversation happen in a logical, structured way. The software is also helpful for professionals that need more data visualization in their business. On the opposite side, the software is not useful for really small businesses. It’s not worth the money.

Really well suited for processes which work with documents, seems less (but it is possible) appropriate for single/no data actions (e.g. just provide a quick update in SQL database without any process).

• Workspace and Openspace Console that offers a powerful method for troubleshooting and viewing the routing within a process
• Easy representation of the corporate organization
• Powerful IDE to design a business process as a TIBCO Business Studio BPM Edition
• Testing and Debugging

• Easy to develop, doesn't require high end programming crew.
• Short learning curve for end user.
• Easy to integrate with legacy technologies.

• A little bit too conservative. Not really anything leading edge. [Tibco] has plenty of customers, and that means they will probably be around forever, but [product enhancements] seem to be more [abundant in competitor product offerings].
• It would be great to have some pre-defined themes. Pie chart labels - it would be great to get more options for sizing and placement.
• I find it hard to trust the online portal too much. I doubt the security that is offered by this software.

• The configuration of the user interface is sometimes not so flexible. However, it can be developed from the (fully flexible then).

Such a BPM sw is amazing and usefull. You have a gret visibility in design and development phase.

Because our support team is always available also for development suggestions.

For BPM we looked at some IBM products suites, BPM Online, Oracle products and Pega Systems. The decision to go with AMX BPM was based on the evaluation by the software architect team and the cost of acquiring the TIBCO suites.

Great support while implementing, affordable consulting and great follow up

• In order to create a BPM management, you need to make a very solid data management model, which becomes very important in its reuse
• The business process is very often unconnected with the implementation logic and therefore plays in favor of the re-usability of the software
• Large customization at log level for which managing these tools can be handled minimizing effort

• ROI seems really quick, as processes are delivered really fast (on the go in an agile way)
