Class of software

As a class of software, business process management software has always been somewhat frustrating. It offers a lot of potential value to the business, however the complexity of setting up a BPM application has made IT organizations gun-shy about the whole category, especially given their experiences with cumbersome ERP applications.

The trick, clearly, is finding a BPM offering in the cloud that gives clients the option of allowing them to continue to run that application in the cloud or move it to their own servers, or potentially some other cloud computing platform, later on.

The latest BPM vendor to land in the cloud is Pegasystems, which this week launched Pega Cloud, an implementation of the company's BPM software in other words available on a cloud computing platform managed by Pegasystems.

According to Ben Frenkel, principal for Pega Cloud Solutions, cloud computing will be particularly advantageous to Pegasystems clients because of the tight coupling of the modeling and production processes within the environment. Pega Cloud allows clients to model an application and at the time seamlessly execute it in a production environment.

Like most things worth doing, there's a lot of risk associated with building a BPM application. Any time you change a business process there will usually be resistance, and if the application fails there will be plenty of blame to go around.

With the five-step process outlined throughout this white paper, and a comprehensive, integrated, suite of software, you can easily increase accuracy and efficiency, save costs, and drive new revenue generating processes on the spur of the moment. Read it today!
