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.

User experience reveals stability and easy deployment, though improvements in integration options are needed
We are still working with DataPower Gateway with IBM solutions, but they will move to webMethods from DataPower, IBM. We still use IBM FileNet for the FileNet. We have already integrated IBM Case Foundation with IBM Content Management and are using IBM Content Navigator as an interface in Content Engine and Content Management for lifecycle documents. I do not use analytics for operational insights. We work in banking, but not in healthcare. Currently, my customers are using it on-premises, and security-wise it is fine. For Saudi Arabia, 300 users represent a medium business. I recommend IBM Case Foundation; it is the best in BPM solutions, and I support it. It is the best because it has stability, very good stability. IBM has good stability, and performance-wise it is also easy for deployment. From the GUI, you can make many changes, and it is low code; we did not write much code because the BPM design is a very good solution. My total rating for IBM Case Foundation is 8.5 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product has a comfortable GUI and a good environment for users."
"The interface, design, and accessible user manuals to help get started using the solution are valuable features in Bizagi."
"It improves visibility and quality, and basically, it avoids human errors."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the process modeling part and process simulation."
"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."
"We previously used Microsoft Vizio; the switch was an obvious choice for us because in Vizio you can't simulate and you have to train the staff to understand whereas Bizagi is easier, easier to navigate and to use, and requires minimal resources."
"The solution offers a free version of their product."
"My primary use case of this solution is process optimization."
"The most valuable feature is the content manager part of the file as it is very stable, robust, and reliable."
"The content management is great."
"The only thing is that we can easily track where the application is in the process, from manual to automation."
"A valuable feature includes seamless integration with the document management system, along with robust capabilities in analytics and reporting."
"The solution is scalable."
"It provides us the capability of producing b​​usiness processes for documents that are launched immediately when a document comes into the repository."
"In terms of rolling out deployments, it's good and there aren't really any bugs."
"It's very easy."
 

Cons

"We have migrated to the cloud, but there are a lot of issues while integrating with the cloud."
"The price could be lower."
"One part of the university has changed its regular desktops to Linux. This is a weak point because Bizagi doesn't run on Linux. I would like the opportunity to run the software inside of Linux."
"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."
"Bizagi's UI should include shorter steps for documenting controls, documenting properties, changing some attributes in the object, and adding additional text."
"It needs some better notation functionality."
"Customer Service: It needs improvement to the speed with which they respond. Technical Support: It needs improvement to the speed with which they respond."
"Also, the tool sometimes feels not so mature when we find random deploy errors from testing to production environment."
"The place of improvement is merging or combining all of the workflow functionality into one seamless tool."
"The solution can be quite expensive."
"There are some features that could be enhanced like the document viewer"
"Once a workflow is launched then it stays static forever, which is a problem because if there is a change in the business then you cannot change the workflow."
"The service as it currently stands is out-of-date and lacks flexibility."
"We face some challenges with IBM Case Foundation from our customers, particularly with administration and configuration."
"IBM needs to update the user interfaces of all its products to make them more intuitive and accessible to beginners. Compared to Microsoft products, IBM solutions are less user-friendly. IBM programs are hard to master. It's a problem in my region because it's hard to find IT staff who can work with IBM."
"90% of the feedback we receive states that the UI is not very user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
"My company uses the free version of the product."
"We use the free version of the solution because the price is in dollars, making it expensive for where we are in Brazil."
"It has a very high price. Many clients complain about the price for maintaining the application on Bizagi."
"The price could be lower."
"Pricing is good value for money."
"If they can freeze the pricing in a contract, I advise them to do so."
"Pricing is in the mid-range, it is not cheap, but it's not expensive."
"The price falls in the middle range—not overly expensive but not extremely affordable either."
"IBM Case Foundation is a little expensive."
"This is not an expensive solution and we are using the standard license."
