Easy to use, reliable, and simple to expand
We have used the same version for two years, however, now there's a new version, which solves a lot of problems. The solution we use that's from two years ago, has the ARIS Connect Server, the web application, and the ARIS client application. Some things you have to do in the clients, and you can't do them in the web environment. In the new version, though it's not installed by us, it's changed. You can do this. You can do almost everything in the web client. The difficulty that you have with switching between the two environments is solved in the new version. However, I haven't tested it yet. That said, that was one of the issues we had. It's a bit annoying that you have to use two environments in the older version.

Facilitates process integration across departments but requires better pricing and broader feature adoption
The most valuable features I find in Oracle BPM include a unified process management platform, human workflow management, and process simulation and optimization. I see that it is integrated with other ERPs. If you integrate it with human HRMS workflow management, then it will provide integration with HRMS for Oracle E-Business Suite and for process analytics and business.

Pros

"The solution is very stable, there are no bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, it's reliable, and the performance is good."
"It's a very easy-to-use product."
"Using this solution we can design our own processor governance, assign some specific technical services, and also run tests of the process to make sure it operates as we need it to."

"This product is useful when you're modeling business processes; you can use all the features that your catalog has inside the modeling and export it to a BPM augmentation engine."
"It is easy to use in a business processing suite."
"The best part about this solution is that the feature set is complete."

Cons

"I recognize the product has areas for potential improvement similar to every tool."
"There is a lot of complexity around licensing and that should be improved."
"It's a bit annoying that you have to use two environments in the older version."
"The solution uses a coding language for process design that is specific only to this product. We would like to see this changed to something more universal."
"Oracle BPM is hard to configure and requires some experience to use it."
"Oracle BPM could probably be improved with respect to the cost. When you are using this product, it'll be a bit costlier for the ROA. I think they should do some discounts on these products, especially for the licenses."
"Oracle BPM has a lack of vision and is very complex to develop and maintain."
"It could have easier administration. It takes time to configure and deploy."
"It would be good if they could provide some additional connectors or an application developer environment for microservices."
"You have to maintain it manually."
"Oracle BPM should allow integration with external, common APIs."
"The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I don't have information on the exact cost of Oracle BPM because a different team handles that, but it's pretty high. Oracle products are very costly. I would rate pricing for Oracle BPM three out of five. Though the pricing is high, the solution has a lot of features."
"We received the product packaged into the Oracle database solution."
"It's pried high, this solution is expensive."
"The pricing is very expensive."
"Oracle is good, but they're still expensive compared to other vendors."
"The licensing for this product is very costly. We pay for a yearly license to use Oracle BPM."
"This solution is very expensive. You are charged per license and an additional 20% for support."
"The pricing is significantly high, particularly for Brazil where fluctuations in the exchange rate between the dollar and the real can further increase the cost of Oracle licenses."
