Free BPM Modelers and tools

Apr 18th, 2008 | By Troy Green | Category: Lead Article

Business Process Modeling is exactly that. Its the equivalent of making your fancy workflow diagrams earn their keep by transforming shapes into actual code [thats the goal at least]. My journey has required me to explore this new neck of the woods [for me] by first focusing on what I can get my hands on and try out. As we take the following tools to task I hope to report back our findings.

Open Source Modelers

    Metastorm offers a Business Process Modeling tool (ProVision) on a 30day trial basis. Metastorm also has a Business Process Management software tool that has a Business Process Modeler built in.

    Process Master would be more a business process documentation tool than a pure modeling tool - and is BPMN

    There is a video on the web site which you can view before deciding if you want to download it.

    Please let me know when the report is to come out and what the cost is.

    Hi Troy,

    You may also want to try ADONIS:Community Edition - free version of a professional business process management toolkit ADONIS by BOC Group. It allows process modeling, analysis and simulation. Results of your work can be exported as documentation (HTML or Word) or shared as XML files (export/import). There’s also BPEL export.

    For free download, documentation and support forum please go to http://www.adonis-community.com.

    If you’d like to know more feel free to drop me a line.

    Best regards,

    Zbigniew
