Chose Oracle BPM Suite
We have selected Oracle BPM Suite because we use Oracle Middleware Suite in our Production system. BPM is part of [the] Middleware Suite. We selected BPM as a frontend system for our business process. We also use BPM to integrate BPM with several other Oracle ecosystem[s]. …
Chose Oracle BPM Suite
The competition for Oracle BPM Suite is far ahead. With a more modern user-interface, very well thought out usability, integration with virtually everything, any new tool for business processes will be better. The biggest difference is, in my opinion, being able to target the …
Chose Oracle BPM Suite
We evaluated Bonita and found that it might fit a smaller-sized company better; we found that Oracle BPM Suite scaled much more evenly. We almost went with one of the competitors, but in the end chose Oracle BPM Suite after we factored in the cost of VMware licensing. There are …
Chose Oracle BPM Suite
IBM's Rational RequistePro was considered as an alternative but due to the client's good experience with existing Oracle services, BPM Suite was finally decided upon.
Chose Oracle BPM Suite
The presentation of the diagrams that the tool can generate is ostentatious and very striking. If you are going to work with Oracle database, the tool allows you great integration capabilities. Bizagi is a very good alternative, although in simulation and in final results …
Chose Oracle BPM Suite
Oracle BPM is the first and only product of its kind that we have used. I am, unfortunately, not able to compare it to any similar product.
Chose Oracle BPM Suite
All are fairly similar in capabilities, but the Oracle BPM Suite has good support for BPMN 2.0, integrates well with open standards and has an excellent design/development platform when compared to the other BPM vendors. The Oracle BPM Suite integrates well with the …

Oracle BPM is part of [the] Middleware SOA suite. Hence Oracle BPM can be directly installed with Oracle WebLogic. Oracle BPM comes with [a] standard out of the box portal. Recently Oracle has introduced another Web based portal to design processes. Standard Oracle BPM workflows can be created using the Jdeveloper. Deploying BPM apps are easy to deploy over Weblogic. All features with Weblogic can be utilized with Oracle BPM. Oracle BPM is [a] standard Middleware product and can make excellent front end applications.

  • Extremely complicated to work with. The WYSIWYG is of no help either since it very buggy and poorly designed. If you are a business or functional user, you will have a hard time using the application.
  • The Oracle's "Using" and "Implementing" guides are nearly useless with no examples and case studies and there is no documentation available to learn or understand the process.
  • Very few skilled developers are available in market who really understand how to implement Oracle BPM suite.

All are fairly similar in capabilities, but the Oracle BPM Suite has good support for BPMN 2.0, integrates well with open standards and has an excellent design/development platform when compared to the other BPM vendors. The Oracle BPM Suite integrates well with the complimentary Oracle Fusion Middleware products that typically accompany a BPM implementation, making it a part of an overall well integrated solution set. Oracle BPM also has very good monitoring, reporting and analytics support built-in.

  • Easy to use
  • Bad reporting in my opinion
Read full review
  • When we moved to Oracle BPM many years ago, it was a huge uplift for our business processes because we didn't have any tool to model flows except Outlook and Excel.
  • We established and streamlined the manufacturing workflows that were needed with the growth of the business.
  • We discovered after a while that the ROI was not great since along with the cost of the tools, we had to account the cost of development from the software team too. It took a lot of time to deliver our first automations due to the big learning curve needed for Oracle BPM.
