Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO iProcess

TIBCO iProcess is used by the technology and order fulfillment departments throughout the engineering segment. The product is the sole business management tool for processing orders and service requests.
All the orders usually pass through the BPM tools for orchestration and fulfillment activities and are transferred from one department to another based on the architecture of the process flow through swim lanes schema, which is a feature of the iProcess tool.

Pros

  • Connects perfectly with other TIBCO tools.
  • Transaction orchestrations through iDecisions.
  • Handles a large number of transactions without any problems.
  • Perfect and easy to use GUIs.

Cons

  • It is complex to use.
  • The official support for the tool is not available anymore through TIBCO.
  • Tibco iProcess has helped automate numerous processes and reduced manual intervention to a minimal.
  • High ROI.
TIBCO iProcess was developed before all the rest of the BPM tools, but Tibco did not release newer versions and decided to sunset the product rather than continuing it. For this reason, the rest of the BPM tools have taken over the market and are more easily implementable. Many opensource tools are also available in the market.

Newer and more easy to use tools are also available from TIBCO as well such as AMX BPM.

There were two instances when Tibco Support provided exceptional support for the product and one of them is when the iProcess engine was down and we were not able to start it again even after multiple attempts and root cause analysis and at that time we contacted the support team and the support team helped to rectify the issue in out temp location issues and memory issues.Another instance was when we wanted to upgrade out server machines and to move the current system to the new servers the support team provided great support.

It integrates all the BPM principles along with the great user interface and independent modules and engines.
All the modules are separate and stand alone and thus provides easier understanding and ease of support.
