The Traditional BPM Landscape: A Reliance on Coding​

In the world of Business Process Management (BPM), the ability to customize, integrate, and adapt has historically been paramount. For years, organizations have sought to tailor their BPM systems to fit intricate business needs. This demand for customization, coupled with the inherent complexity of many early BPM tools, often necessitated a heavy reliance on coding. Platforms like IBM BPM, Oracle BPM Suite, and even newer entrants like Nintex, while offering visual design capabilities, frequently required coding for intricate customizations, integrations, or advanced functionalities.

This coding dependency introduced several challenges:

  • Increased Complexity: Organizations often needed specialized IT teams or developers to implement, maintain, or modify their BPM systems.
  • Longer Implementation Times: Custom coding extended project timelines, causing delays in process deployment.
  • Reduced Agility: With a coding prerequisite, making quick changes to adapt to evolving business needs became cumbersome.
