The question on Slashdot was actually “Do You Like Your Workflow or BPM Software?“.
The questioner was interested in “firsthand experiences with these kinds of products and in unbiased reviews” and requested information on following products:
- JBoss jBPM & Rules
- ILOG JViews & JRules
- webMethods & Blaze Advisor
- Oracle BPEL Process Manager
- COSA
- FLOWer
- Microsoft BizTalk
- Lotus Workflow
- Global360 BPM
- Bizflow
- WebSphere MQ Workflow
- Tibco BPM
- Fujitsu Interstage
- FileNet BPM
- Savvion
- Pegasystems
- BEA AquaLogic with Fuego
As is to be expected on Slash Dot, there were several comments of “Do you own homework”, and some “unbiased” product plugs passed off as “opinions”. Largely however, there well thought out answers from experienced industry veterans.
The general consensus seems to be that “it depends”. It depends on what you want to do and how much money you want to spend
