    The scenario where TIBCO ActiveMatrix is well suited is in the scenario where there are more long-term business processes and in a complex corporate organization where there are many users with different privileges to perform actions on the same processes. It's less appropriate where there are no complex business process especially if the resubmit of the task in error is not required.

    • TIBCO offers multiple ways to implement the sophisticated forms of event-driven BPM. It also balances the combination of business rules and AMX BPM for a different variety of IT Applications
    • It depends on the Enterprise service bus which is message oriented middleware
    • The integration of Spotfire with AMXBPM and BusinessEvents is a unique advantage

    • A little bit too conservative. Not really anything leading edge. [Tibco] has plenty of customers, and that means they will probably be around forever, but [product enhancements] seem to be more [abundant in competitor product offerings].
    • It would be great to have some pre-defined themes. Pie chart labels - it would be great to get more options for sizing and placement.
    • I find it hard to trust the online portal too much. I doubt the security that is offered by this software.

    For BPM we looked at some IBM products suites, BPM Online, Oracle products and Pega Systems. The decision to go with AMX BPM was based on the evaluation by the software architect team and the cost of acquiring the TIBCO suites.

    • In order to create a BPM management, you need to make a very solid data management model, which becomes very important in its reuse
    • The business process is very often unconnected with the implementation logic and therefore plays in favor of the re-usability of the software
    • Large customization at log level for which managing these tools can be handled minimizing effort

It shows various parts of the business process and who the participants are that engage in a particular process, with a logical relation of message exchanges.Screenshot of Choreography diagrams that show the exchange of information related to the messages between participants working together on tasks shown in the process. This defines the way business participants coordinate their interactions. Choreographies can also be connected in sequence to show a series of related tasks.Screenshot of A conceptual model, that captures the key categories and interactions of data objects that are used by the business, such as subject areas, business entities, interactions and relationships.Screenshot of Reference objects (e.g. steward, business unit, business rule, business element, and application) that can be included. Also can include external data objects (e.g. entity, table, view, data store, data feed, report, and flat file) in both BPMN diagrams and conceptual models.
