Abstract: | The main objective of this paper is to propose a set of indicators for the evaluation of Workflow software-type products within the context of Information Systems. This paper is mainly based on a comprehensive bibliographical review of all topics referring to the Workflow Technology and Information Systems. Next, sets of indicators are presented for the selection of a Workflow software based on the realities of the business world, including a method of examination so as to obtain an integral evaluation on the Workflow software. Finally, the evaluation method for two types of Workflow software is applied: Lotus Domino/Notes® and Microsoft Exchange®, for the billing subsystems of a company called MANAPRO Consultants, Inc.®. |
