Vendor Landscape Plus: Business Process Management (BPM) Suites

It's not an automated process.

More Details

Your Challenge

  • Business Process Management (BPM) has become a catch-all for business disciplines and supporting technologies ranging from workflow, e-forms, process modeling, process re-engineering, simulation, and activity monitoring, making BPM suite selection an onerous task.
  • Many BPM suites overlap in features with ECM, CRM, and BI, increasing the risk of overbuying BPM.
  • Both BPM in the cloud and accelerated growth of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) may provide alternatives to buying a full suite of BPM tools.
