Appian vs. IBM Process Mining

Appian is well suited for the areas which involve a workflow. For Example: Consider there is a task and 3 teams are required to work on the task, with Appian we can create tasks for each team and monitor the comments and completion. Together with the integration capabilities, this tool can function in many areas. In our firm, we are using it to automate the workflows for our business teams and help them in capturing the OLA's and SLA's.

The data mining used within our organization uncovered many logs, records and unnoticed processes, which resulted in a very detailed visual representation of the end-to-end processes, mapped out in sequence of events. We were able to identify a few bottlenecks which caused delays and deviations in our workflows. In short we were able to iron out the inefficiencies, which helped tremendously in deploying targeted improvements to our internal processes.

• Allows at a glance workflow documentation which assists in the need we have for information readiation.
• Drag and drop interface for workflow development greatly speeds our apps time to market.
• Using the advanced features of Appian, we are able to create working sites in a fraction of the time it would take to do so using "traditional" development.

• Much more efficiency and control in the final reports.
• Better budget earnings.
• We also have the best supervision of the entire process of the company's work, which makes the result clear and effective.
• We can now see with more certainty all the areas that are underperforming and thus look for solutions.
• Mining of existing data is available in any application.

• Search issues when type ahead and database search are used in the same field.
• Buttons implementation where user is require[d] to click on the button description - if clicks on the button outside that text - button will not work.
• Problems with using certain off-the-shelf performance tools like WebLoad or Neoload. That is because of different dynamic variables being used internally in Appian - which these tools are unable to correlate. We are still investigating using other tools like Jmeter to overcome dynamic correlation problem for performance testing.

• It is not software with good scalability, I do not see improvements in its very advanced constants in its updates.
• The central structure of this tool has made it difficult to use.
• Everything works as it should when it is implemented for the development of new projects.

We recently renewed our license with Appian. We are convinced that its flexibility, relative ease of use, the support they provide, there mobile advancements and their general willingness and desire to see us succeed all contributed to our reason to renew our agreement with Appian

I think it is the best process mining software that can currently exist, others are similar, but do not meet our expectations, we will use it for a long time, it is a system that makes us productive with minimal manual effort, the quality of the results they are amazing.

There are many differences between using Appian and using other programming languages. Additionally, there are many trade offs that have to be made and that have to be accepted for using Appian. In some cases, you give up control of one small area, but in others, it may open settings that are unavailable to a developer when using other program languages.

The initial integration/configuration is complex and hence takes time. Once integrated it is very easy and nice to use. We can have the analytics with a very user-friendly dashboard. It provides detailed information which helps in finding causes and hence in improvement. I would say it is a very nice and user-friendly tool.

Appian is one of the leading low code business automation platforms that support RPA, decision rules, case management, workflow automation, and machine learning all in a single bundle. But it is also harder to implement and replace the traditional business process.

The customer support team has held our hand in digital transformation journey and provided the best guidance and tools. When contacted they are always ready with effective solution of the raised issue. The team visits the company regularly to audit performance of the application and provide necessary updates. They provides awareness and business risks that might arise from various business engagements and expected risks.

As analyst I participated in a developer boot camp. At times it was hard to keep up but most of the time it made sense. Trainer took the time to explain and slowed pace down to answer questions etc.

Very boring; hard to get through quickly, but rather effective in demonstrating the use of the platform.

It was really seamless. SaaS in the true definition of the word. We logged on and started using the product. Very easy.

Appian compares favorably with other vendors in the space. It is strongest with business workflow automation and to create custom business applications. The tool base for coding is extremely straightforward and allows for faster coding and deployment. Handles very complex process flows and has the ability to discover new opportunities for automation.

ibm is more practical than Celonis and ui path process mining because ibm effectively optimized our operation and its Accelerate productivity and less time and reduce error and due to AI its more easier than both. i personally found IBM most trusted and secure and its advance technology makes it morden.

• Our IT automated procurement process has sped up time to get paid by a few days on every transaction
• Our approvals are more organized as a result of being put in digitally
• Managing our own tenant requires more than we have available, given the quarterly updates
• Since we have business-critical functions running in the platform, we have to thoroughly review every note of every update. Because of this we skip half of the updates since we don't have enough time to review these changes four times a year.

• It provides a great workflow, because it optimizes our processes, since it has adequate artificial intelligence that allows early detection and solution of problems, the acquisition cost is high, but with very promising and easy-to-use functions.
• Obtaining data information is ideal, since it is an automatic process, it is intuitive and you always get a good productivity, the data analysis is very detailed.
