Alpha Anywhere vs Bizagi comparison

"It's very flexible."

"The product enables the users to automate the processes and provides a good user experience."

"Bizagi is a valuable tool for us to model and automate business processes."

"Agility is most valuable because we can develop so much faster than other tools. We can make requirements, develop, and go out to production much faster. So, agility in the software cycle is most valuable."

"The ability to document the entire process within the same diagram and then generate documents in Word, publish on the web for transparency, and perform model simulations has become extremely useful for developing system processes and activity diagrams for technology developers in any area."

"I like all of the features. I like that you can simulate the processes and add the time standard."

"The most valuable feature is the simulation."

"I like the business process management engine. It's very detailed, and you can probably map any of the corporate workflow processes you come across in it compared to some of the other solutions out there. I can probably say that it has very good support to work in tandem with other RP solutions in the market. The software is still very user-friendly and integral, and they have pretty good online resources. The automation feature is pretty good, so is the integration feature."

"The approval process is simple."

"It can be slow to develop, and it's repetitive."

"The data in Excel that comes out after running the simulation is a bit complicated sometimes to interpret."

"However, if you are looking at building an application where 100 developers are working in parallel, you will have issues."

"Framework approach, which extends to reusability in tools, like Pega, for deployment management could be improved."

"It needs some better notation functionality."

"Its performance needs to be improved. The main thing is that it is limited, especially in terms of the response times. When the processes become a bit large, it is very awkward to work with the Bizagi modeler. When you have already modeled but start to rearrange, it is quite a bit of an effort to change the stuff. When you rearrange lanes or have new structures, it goes rather squiggly up and down and so on, which could be improved. The visual outputs of the DIREPs of the process models are pixelated and have a bad image quality. It is a PNG or JPEG, and you cannot export it as a PDF. When you have rather large processes, you should be able to arrange them hierarchically. Currently, it is not supported. If you use sub-processes and inflate a process, suddenly the arrangement is totally different, and although you know the process, you have to look where is it now. You need a good understanding of the levels of your processes before you start in Bizagi. It can have automatic support for optimal presentation. In BPM, you should have it from the top left to the bottom right. However, in most cases, people don't know how they should arrange it. Therefore, it would be nice to have a suggestion system for different arrangements to be able to better present the process."

"The open source version lacks the option to publish."

"There could be more documentation."

"The solution was very limited."

"Prices vary, and they will enter into different contracts with different people."

"The pricing is mid-range.We pay only for the subscription."

"This is a free solution."

"Some solutions are completely free. One would be the business process diagramming tool, the server beneath it, and the automation tool. You don't need to pay to map the business process, but you would need to when you want to execute any of the commands. So, basically, they lure you in with a free ride, and when you want to scale the solution, you'll have to pay for it."

"Pricing is good value for money."

"The paid version costs us about $20,000 for 100 users annually."

"When we were working with the on-premises solution, the licenses were a little bit expensive because we had to buy one by one a package of a hundred licenses, whereas now, we are working with the cloud solution, and it has a different cost. It's a different business model because we pay the license for the developers, but the cost is by the environment, and we have unlimited licenses. The business model is different now, but the benefit ratio is good."

"Make sure that your requirements are explicitly defined from the outset. This will help you choose the right setup and licensing for your needs."

"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."

"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
