The real time collaboration feature of IBM Blueworks Live is another big positive feature. It helps us save time and reduces the number of emails we send as we can visually design, analyze, optimize and review processes and / or policies in real-time and discuss ideas simultaneously. This works well with it's version control features.

The IBM blueworks platform provides on-call collaboration between team members in my organization, including all process model developers, to collaborate, document and improve initiatives. along with that it allows process maps to be converted to BPMN 2.0 and other formats for immediate export.

In Insurance businesses differnet types of stakeholders needs communication almost all the time during working on any policy lifecycle or claim lifecycle. Lets say broker needs to collborate several time a day with underwriting or customer reps staff. IBM Blueworks Live has provided our business with great strength by helping and desinging the process of collaboration and provided really time saving approach

IBM Blueworks Live's feature for working together in real-time has been a game-changer for us. It lets everyone chime in and update things right when they're thinking about it, making our teamwork way more dynamic. Plus, getting instant alerts when something changes means we're all always on the same page. It's really brought a new level of efficiency and cohesion to our team, and I no longer had to rely on Slack for communicating about changes with my client or their team/clients.

We definitely utilize the real-time collaboration aspect. Process diagraming "live" during working sessions is much more effective/efficient in Blueworks. We're not presently using much of the change notification features, however.

The ability to collaborate in real-time minimizes communication delays associated with waiting for responses to emails or dealing with asynchronous communication. This accelerates decision-making processes related to process improvements and changes. The collaborative nature of Blueworks Live can contribute to increased productivity as teams can collectively work on process improvement initiatives. This is particularly beneficial for cross-functional teams involved in business process management.

The impact was very significant in terms of work optimization and improved communication. Automatic notifications addressed serious communication and management issues we had before, which led to delays and rework. At the same time, the changes brought by the new work process required us to adjust our internal process and demanded more initial training and support effort than we had anticipated.

This has had a tremendous impact because after the updates are complete, you do not need to manually send communications and notifications! The system already does it for you, so it is correct and timely.

IBM Blueworks Live allows our users to better communicate and update the business processes in an effective way. the real time change, allowed to some users only to avoid inconsistencies enable our organization to reduce the update time, the confusion around the back and forth email exchanges and also make visibility on the progress to everyone in a real time.

This capability is available in the Microsoft Suite, so we did not use it. For those that don't have another software to use, these features are fantastic! Automation of redundant processes saves time and improves efficiency and accuracy.

It is more effective in design making. It works with extraordinary productivity and speed. It allows us to share the work details with users from anywhere in the world. Its amazing mapping process can change a simple plan into a unique one. It is [an] easy-to-use and efficient platform that gives high-performance services.

For any program to be cloud-based is a huge plus to any user and organization. Whenever someone makes a change or update[s] on Blueworks Live, we are able to see that change in real-time. With that, we know we are working with the most up-to-date information. We also don't have to wait for someone to do their update, then we go in to do ours. We are able to work on it simultaneously.

This has been very helpful. We don’t have a huge team, but we’ve definitely outgrown hand-scribbled notes taken during Zoom meetings. It’s much for effective to have a single place where this can be stored and accessed by all members.

Collaboration features work great. The user administration is quite simple, and users don't need much training or ramp-up to be able to start the work. You can easily identify who works on which process, whether they are completed (e.g., from draft to released) as well as suggest changes. Everything is handled on a single platform.

Any change is notified to every involved person on our team and outside of it. Another good feature is the capability to collect contributions to process definition and documentation from different sources with different degree of filtering. It's very easy to add other new users to work on the repository with the right degree of visibility.

1. Easy to track changes due to automated change notifications
2. Easy to share process links using the in-tool chat feature
3. Easy to provide or reply on review comments

Overall, it provides an easy and user-friendly experience due to its similarity with social collaboration features like post, share comments, follow users or processes, etc.
