Micah Rachuonyo - PeerSpot reviewer
Principal Standardization Officer at KEBS
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.
Dan Campeanu - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at ProVision
Automates tasks and manages multiple servers from a central location
The initial setup was quite complex. It required careful preparation of installation steps, as many tasks were not automated as expected. Special attention was needed to prepare groups, users, and permissions at each step to ensure a smooth setup process. Please do so accurately to avoid having to start over. Challenges encountered during deployment included issues with installation and configuration and difficulties detecting machines and executing tasks as expected. Some solutions were found through trial and error during installation, while others were discovered through recommendations from other users. Despite these challenges, the deployment and rollout of Orchestrator took approximately one and a half months to ensure proper functionality.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool helps to improve business processes and have better KPIs. Also, it is easy to use. Our developers find it easy to learn."
"This solution is easy to use and it is a good tool for process modeling."
"Bizagi is very simple and easy to use, which I find most valuable, as it allows users to create clean and neat process maps."
"The approval process is simple."
"Very user friendly and a professional solution."
"This is a free solution that allows us to create quality visualizations for our company."
"It automates a completely manual, complicated process."
"I would recommend this product to anyone who is interested in mapping and doesn't have too much of a budget."
"Automation is the most valuable feature of the solution."
"It can manage multiple servers and workstations from a single location."
 

Cons

"It's very difficult to contact support unless you pay for it."
"The solution needs to make it easier to use RPA products on it; they may need an RPA-specific interface."
"The solution's interface could be a bit more user-friendly and I would like to see more integrations with other Office products, not just Office 365."
"The product must make automation easier."
"One of the features which could be improved is machine learning."
"The technical support is not fast enough and should be improved."
"The speed of this solution needs to be improved."
"In business process mapping, you have pools and dark pools. I don't see that Bizagi differentiates between a regular pool and a dark pool."
"The product's management aspect needs enhancement."
"I find the Orchestrator UI to be problematic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I was using the free version."
"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
"The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
"It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."
"This is a free solution."
"Pricing is good value for money."
"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."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
"We obtained a license that bundled Windows Server with System Center at no additional cost."
"I give the cost of the solution a five out of ten."
