Business process management (BPM) is a platform and technology that is yet to fully penetrate
enterprise organizations. Although the BPM market continues to show reasonable growth, it has a
tendency to be self-referencing, with vendors concerned about other vendors' offerings and forgetting
that the competition they face is not “another vendor's BPM suite” but the whiteboards, post-it notes,
Visio diagrams, PowerPoint presentations, and Word documents that most organizations still use to
discover and describe business processes.
Ovum has assessed the market and published this Ovum Decision Matrix to help enterprises select the
right BPM suite from those offered by the seven leading vendors.
