It integrates well with Visual Studio and .NET, enhancing its functionality. Bonita offers strong integration capabilities and a low-code development platform. Its form-building tools and detailed documentation make it efficient for process automation.

Room for Improvement: Bizagi users suggest improvements in performance, cloud support, and automation complexity, alongside better exporting formats and integration with external systems.

Enterprise Architect at a mining and metals company with 10,001+ employees

Intuitive toolset engages users effectively in agile projects

I would recommend Bizagi depending on the maturity of the organization. For those just starting, it's a good tool to get into business modeling. In more mature environments, I might not pick this toolset because it doesn't integrate with live systems well. Overall, I would rate Bizagi between eight to nine.

A simple and lightweight college course automation system with third-party integrations

The initial setup is straightforward and can be completed with the environment within an hour. First, take the latest from the git repository and check the git code to the monitor studio and a bar file, a deployable Bonita archive file. Then, take that process to the Bonita server, running at runtime on another server. Finally, deploy and enable it by selecting the proper organization.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Bizagi is a great tool for creating, testing, and documenting process diagrams."

"Business process modelling and simulation."

"I very much like the reusable rules and forms, and the way Bizagi controls the process flow. I also like the document generating system to generate PDFs and then .doc files with information gathered from a flow. At the end of a process, you can generate a document that can be printed."

"I find Bizagi so user friendly. I also think that its modeling abilities are great and it's easy to teach them to new users."

"The solution's simulation capabilities are the most valuable aspects."

"This solution is easy to use and it is a good tool for process modeling."

"Bizagi is really helpful for us to justify a process improvement initiative because we can simulate a to-be process and see how much we can save time, save resources, and how a to-be or a new process can run in the correct logic based on BPMN modeling."

"The interface, design, and accessible user manuals to help get started using the solution are valuable features in Bizagi."

More Bizagi pros

"It is more than helpful, it is worth the effort of learning to better our company."

"Studio provides an opportunity to get early feedback from real users and quickly change the process and forms."

"We use the tool to validate and give access to the users. It is for access management."

"Process automation with Bonita BPM is really easy."

"Compared to other products on the market, Bonita presents a pretty acceptable level of robustness."

"Development of forms and flows."

"I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features."

"It is a great product that is powerful in developing applications."

More Bonita pros

Cons

"From a developer's point of view, an improvement in the layout would make the UI better."

"It should provide the ability to create a simple application. It can be used for database modeling diagrams and forms, but it should also support CRUD, that is, create, read, update and delete."

"The product must make automation easier."

"The solution needs to make it easier to use RPA products on it; they may need an RPA-specific interface."

"Bizagi allows for automation, but it's very complicated."

"The gateway through which it connects with other vendors, specifically RPA vendors, is one aspect that could be improved."

"A more complex management of documents, such as advanced searches, indexing etc, without needing to integrate with ECM's (Enterprise Content Management Systems)"

"Sometimes, when your process is big with multiple lanes, the product will freeze the issue noticed on multiple laptops, not a single PC."

More Bizagi cons

"We are struggling a bit with integrations."

"The interface is advanced and quite good, but it could improve."

"So Bonita is easy to use but it seems to be missing some powerful features that competing products have."

"Installation could be made easier."

"It is missing some important features that other products have."

"Bonita can improve by offering more flexibility. The developer does not receive the code of the application to modify it. Most of the other solutions I have used allow the developers to change or improve the code that is generated."

"The documentation and examples definitely could be enhanced."

"The price is good, but I do not like the process instance annual quantity pricing base used today."

More Bonita cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I used to be very pleased with the pricing. Now, it's a bit more complicated. I don't remember exactly, however, it might be $10 a month per user."

"The product must improve its cost."

"The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."

"We have no issues with the pricing."

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

"If they can freeze the pricing in a contract, I advise them to do so."

"This is a free solution."

"For the prices, we didn't try a negotiations about licensing or pricing, but if i can say a word about this, I find Bizagi prices to be well thought out."

More Bizagi pricing and cost advice

"I believe this is a very good financial choice."

"I am using the free version of Bonita."

"Licensing cost for the Enterprise edition comes out to be around 40,000 a year. There is also a Community edition, which is free. Some customers can go for the Community edition, but some of them require the Enterprise edition. Big companies go for the Enterprise edition, which comes with a lot of additional features such as a mobile app."

"Price to service ratio with Bonita BPM is good."

"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."

"The price is fair for what we are using the solution for."

"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
