What is Business Process Management (BPM) software?
A business process is a set of activities that are performed in a sequential manner to complete a task. A BPM application is a tool that monitors, measures, and analyzes your existing business processes and provides an analytical report to improve the overall efficiency and productivity of the organization.
Who should use BPM software?
Organizations of all sizes will benefit from a robust BPM solution. It helps companies understand the effectiveness of their current business processes, and how to refine them.
