User Testimonials
	Flxpoint	OpenText MBPM
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	OpenText MBPM is well suited for rapid application development where process workflows are well designed in a detailed environment. A servicing organization could benefit from being able to manage and design complex case management processes and applications. It is not suited for the automotive industry where complex custom engineering processes exist within product engineering (vehicle) and manufacturing plants.

Pros	No answers on this topic	Complex routing of tasks based on calculated criteria Linking between tasks and accessing relevant information Organising, scheduling and prioritising Different views for different people Incentivized Peter Green Director of Technology Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	The Metastorm process engine is based on an older version of .NET. Updating to a newer version would resolve several known issues with .NET email functionality. Metastorm builds web pages at run time. While the UI presented to the end user is fine, the Document Object Model is convoluted and subject to change with new releases. Providing a more simplified DOM or at very least a custom function to replace document.getElementById() would make client-side scripting a much more powerful tool. One function that I've seen Metastorm competitors do well, is email wizards. Having a WYSIWYG email editor would be really nice. Eden Mack Senior BPM Developer Read full review
