TIBCO® BPM Enterprise vs. WEBCON BPS

TIBCO BPM Enterprise allows integration with Corporate LDAP and at the same time define Role Based Access Control which helps in authentication and authorization of the users. It supports both default database and custom database. Drag and drop feature allows easy and faster way to do the development. It has support for deployment from design studio and scripted deployment as well. TIBCO BPM Enterprise has a wide range of plugins for development.

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).

TIBCO BPM Enterprise can be integrated with other technologies like React UI which can be used to customize front end and TIBCO Business Works for processing. Services created in TIBCO BPM Enterprise can be exposed to REST which can be shared as API to external systems. Users can be created and modifies very easily using out of the box TIBCO BPM Openspace and Workspace. Events can be customized and this data can be used to generate reports.

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

Incentivized

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