MBPM 9.5.1 has just been released.  TLS 1.2 and Edge are finally supported per the release notes.

The roadmap indicates the next release won't be until mid 2019, when they'll finally update the Teleric web controls, per the roadmap.

Just curious, how many folks are still using MBPM and which version(s)?

We are on 9.3, going to 9.5 (now 9.5.1)

We are still on v9.2.x in live and development. We have had v9.3.x on a test upgrade server for over a year now but with no strong business need to upgrade it has just sat there. Our live server is a bit 'delicate' and we don't like to make changes in case they break it. (Seriously - even deploying a process can crash the whole server sometimes!)

I can appreciate your concerns Rick.
We have to upgrade this year -- delayed due to other projects determined needing to be done first -- as the OS our 9.3 environments are on is desupported later this year.  Since we have to build new machines, we will upgrade to 9.5.1 (now that its out) to buy us some time.

We're still on 9.1.3.2101 and starting to experience problems with Windows updates breaking stuff on the server.  Looking to move up to 9.5 as soon as we can.

I think the lack of response, and the limited view, indicate just how much OT MBPM may be used any longer.  I had suspected it would be limited, but this just helps confirm it.

We'll be upgrading to 9.5.1 relatively soon, to buy us support time for the OS, database and MBPM (though the support for MBPM isn't as time sensitive as the OS/database.  As for the future, time will tell.

Looking at opportunity's online in the MBPM space there is a strong market in the US. Add to that the number of industries where MBPM has found a critical workspace, Legal and Insurance domains in particular. The fact that we are here is testament to the capability of the product and its unique place in the market. 

The early days of ework, and metastorm, were tough while the product gained ground and reached its peak. Then all the issues with upgrades across versions and re-skilling and migration efforts. The investment made in keeping the product running is massive. 

For now the lights are on and sign says 'open for business'.

I'm glad I'm not the only one...

We're still on 7.6 with a view to moving to 9.5 but we're pretty much in the same boat as above, without a strong case to make the jump no time is being dedicated to it.
