Has helped me create clean and structured process maps with a simple setup experience

I have not explored ways Bizagi can be improved beyond creating maps. If I explore automation and integration with other processes, then I may be able to identify potential areas for improvement. I would appreciate additional features for the free version. Currently, the elements in a process map are limited to activities, decisions, flows, and start/end points. The decision map could be improved to allow more than three options at a decision point.

Visual collaboration has improved remote workflows and supports faster shared decisions

The best features Lucidchart offers are that it diagrams processes very well. It allows for project management to help with client timelines. It is also easy to use and create diagrams, especially mermaid diagrams. Collaborating is easy. Out of all those features, collaboration stands out to me the most because it is easy to share with team members to do joint design work. Lucidchart has positively impacted my organization by improving productivity and collaboration. In terms of specifics, collaboration helps us come to conclusions. I notice better throughput as it is easy to use. Improved productivity allows us to express ourselves more quickly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the ease of use and the fact that you can download and use their free version, which is unlimited. However, while it's unlimited use, some features aren't available."

"It automates a completely manual, complicated process."

"The basic mapping feature is key for me; it's fantastic, it's easy to use and it's free."

"Bizagi has rich functionalities; compared to other BPMN tools, it has more features."

"It can be useful as a tool to improve your communications and the control of your processes. For example, when you have to explain a process to seven or eight stakeholders who think differently as well as have different experiences in different functional departments, it is not easy. Sometimes you are using a lot of technical terms, and other times, you are dealing with management terminology. The visual representation helps you create a better alignment and understanding for different roles and stakeholders of your workforce."

"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."

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

"I like that Bizagi is fully compatible with BPMN 2.0. It also eases the way in which we work with BPMN 2.0 itself, which is a comprehensive and rather complex notation standard."

More Bizagi pros

"For documenting processes and systems, I would rate the solution a nine out of 10. I'm not aware of any other software that is as usable as this, because of the templates. They make documenting these things really easy."

"The biggest lesson that I have learned from using this product is that I don't need to struggle with creating org charts; it's quick and easy to use."

"The interface is very user-friendly and it is not a hassle to use the site at all. They did a really good job in that regard."

"This ability to collaborate efficiently and in parallel has saved us time because it makes the job easier for our colleagues and teammates."

"The most valuable feature is the ease of use, and just being able to drag and drop."

"Lucidchart helped us to realize efficiencies in the projects we use it for. I can show people pictures, and I can change things in a meeting and then email it by the end of the meeting. Because most places we go, especially now with everybody in-home office, I'm going to have great internet access, and that just makes it easier to be able to change things quickly while we're in a meeting and go, "Oh, you changed this. Oh, okay.", and then send it to them as a proof and send it as a PDF or send them a link. That works great. That saves time and accelerates a sale."

"Lucidchart's capabilities for visualizing and understanding those flows and processes are absolutely excellent."

"Lucidchart is a really effective tool to help illustrate those pictures, to explain very complex technical ideas to other technical people."

More Lucidchart pros

Cons

"Bizagi doesn't have integrations with other solutions, such as ERP systems; in the industry and your company, you have a lot of systems with which you need to integrate, but Bizagi doesn't have such integrations, which makes it very difficult."

"The tool is expensive and it should improve its pricing."

"Its price can be improved. The price is high for the application as well as for maintaining and developing applications. When you develop, for example, a BPM, you need to pay a lot for Bizagi."

"It needs some better notation functionality."

"The performance could use improvement. We couldn't connect the processes to on one file. The performance is an issue for us."

"The speed of this solution needs to be improved."

"Can be difficult for new users."

"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."

More Bizagi cons

"Sometimes, I have created charts with a lot of layers, which locks down parts of the chart and hides parts of the chart to edit it. If they have a better way to deal with specific layers when it gets complex, then that would be helpful. I would like to see something like an illustrator program, where they have a pallet of these layers that I want and don't want as well as being able to see each layer individually. That is the one thing that could be helpful."

"I would like to have access to more colorful and more vibrant icons."

"In terms of improvement, they should make it very clear, whether it's a single A4 page or two A4 pages, it should be mapped out."

"One of the things that I find frustrating is that all of our Tableau information is on a server, so when I send that out people can't open it and use it."

"Another thing that somewhat irritated me is the fact that there is a paste function in the menu, but when you right-click and select paste, it tells you that you can't use paste."

"Anytime I need to print, I have to re-download/export."

"Perhaps it already exists, but if there were software to install the solution on a Mac, that would be helpful. I see that it's not in the App Store, so that's something that could be improved."

More Lucidchart cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."

"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."

"The Bizagi modeler can be downloaded free of charge."

"It is not expensive."

"Bizagi is totally free for modeling."

"We didn't use the licensed versions where you could exactly go into automatization. However, we looked at the pricing in the beginning, and the only thing that I remember is that it was too expensive for the things we were using because our clients would also have to license the product. One client said that it was too expensive for the benefit they get out of it."

"It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."

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

More Bizagi pricing and cost advice

"The licensing is pretty cost-effective but I haven't considered it on an enterprise level."

"We signed up for the month-to-month and it charged us all at once for the whole year. I believe we signed up for the $7.99 one. I think that was the price."

"I have a subscription as an individual user for one year, and it is not expensive."

"At €167 per user per year, the pricing is slightly higher than Visio, but it's worth it."

"The pricing is very reasonable, and they have a free trial available that you can play with."

"We chose Lucid based on the price comparison between it and draw.io... Lucidchart was about 15 percent cheaper per user... I was surprised to learn that it came with a separate subscription model and was not included in my existing Lucidchart subscription."

"Pricing-wise, it is pretty fair. I don't really know what group pricing looks like, but right now, I pay $10 a month for my Lucid subscription. One thing I would say is that I do worry about my bosses being okay with paying $10 a month for every single employee because we would have around 20 people. It makes me a little nervous about whether they are going to pay $200 a month for people to be able to use this software. At the same time, from where I'm sitting, it's totally worth it. We save a thousand dollars from using this software. It's still a no-brainer."

"The price was low enough to make me think that it was fine, I'll go for it. I think it's $80 or so. It's not too expensive."
