Comparison
ProcessMagnet vs. “we keep it in Confluence”
Most organizations already document — in Confluence, SharePoint, on a file share, in a grown SOP PDF. The problem is rarely that too little exists. It is that nobody holds an overview of it any more and maintenance loses out to daily work.
A wiki someone has to tend drifts from day one.
What ProcessMagnet does differently
Nothing gets thrown away: ProcessMagnet reads wiki, file share and stacks of PDFs as a source — including the 800-page manual nobody opens any more.
The same process sits in four places in three versions. ProcessMagnet reconciles them, merges duplicates and flags contradictions instead of leaving them standing.
It stays current because it is re-read, not because someone means to get round to it. That is where documentation drives usually fall asleep.
Side by side
| — | ProcessMagnet | wiki, file share and SOP PDF |
|---|---|---|
| What already exists | Read as a source | Already there |
| Spread across systems | Brought together | Stays spread out |
| Contradictions | Flagged | Surface only when it matters |
| Staying current | Re-read automatically | Depends on discipline |
| Findability | One place to look things up | Search across several stores |
| Cost | Priced per system landscape | Usually already paid for |
When the other side is the better choice
If your documentation sits in one well-kept source, someone reliably keeps it current and everyone actually uses it — then the status quo is fine and ProcessMagnet solves a problem you do not have. In that case ProcessCollector is the better fit: lean, to collect processes and look them up. We will say so in the conversation.
Frequently asked
Do we have to get rid of our wiki?
No. It is read as a source. Where the consolidated body of knowledge lives afterwards, and what you keep using the wiki for, is your call.
We have an 800-page SOP PDF. Is that too much?
On the contrary — volume is the raw material. That exact case is documented at Euromobil: a grown Confluence collection with nearly 800 pages of SOP became a view the team actually uses.
How is this different from a good wiki structure?
A structure organizes what someone writes into it. ProcessMagnet gathers what your systems already hold and re-reads when something changes.
