Business Tools at Motorola Solutions
The tool is intuitive to use and, through automation, has been a real time-saver
When there are multiple steps or if there's a disconnect when creating the ticket, it could be a problem for the user. For example, our RSN needs to approve the ticket first before it's moved to the next person rather than having them all grouped. It would be better if we could see all the tickets grouped at the same time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I really enjoy using the workflow management tool."
"It is more than helpful, it is worth the effort of learning to better our company."
"I think Bizagi is a powerful software or tool for organization, but Bonita is user-friendly and easy-to-use — easier to use for development."
"Bonitasoft helped us automate complicated and labor intensive processes"
"Customer Service: Very good, also the commercial team !Technical Support: Perfect ! and the community is a great help also"
"I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features."
"One of the most valuable features is you can create without coding, it is a low code platform."
"Compared to other products on the market, Bonita presents a pretty acceptable level of robustness."
"The ease of use is great; the user interface is very, very good, and the creation of process forms is very simple while offering a good amount of detail that can be captured."
"My advice to anybody who is considering KiSSFLOW is that it is easy to use and I recommend it."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"I work in HR and am fond of automation. I like the tool's email automation and integration with Outlook."
"Kissflow has reduced the bottleneck around getting approval for certain items in the company."
"Kissflow is intuitive and easy to use, and I haven't faced any errors using the solution so far."
"The most valuable feature is APIs. Its integrations are very flexible, allowing developers to connect multiple applications like DocuSign, Salesforce, OpenText, and SEB."
"The best thing about KiSSFLOW is that we can do virtual approvals."
 

Cons

"The main issue with Bonita is that the workspace crashes sometimes."
"At times Bonita BPM Studio crashes, intermittently."
"Automation in vacation of a human resources replacement would be a good improvement in the product."
"There is a considerable learning curve."
"It is missing some important features that other products have."
"The support is mandatory to access all features (Subscription), maybe they can have a different business model."
"I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation."
"The community edition has limited module functionality."
"There is a lag in the delay between API calls."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability."
"They should increase their marketplace with existing tools so that connections are directly through connectors instead of API integrations."
"When there are multiple steps or if there's a disconnect when creating the ticket, it could be a problem for the user."
"The integration between forms should be made easier."
"Sometimes some notifications don't appear on the mobile app."
"KiSSFLOW needs to improve its integration."
"In future releases, it would be interesting to have a repository or portal within KiSSFLOW where users can interact with the KiSSFLOW community."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."
"The product is not cheaper, not costlier; it is reasonable. Bonita’s license is very flexible, with options to meet the needs of different customers and clients. Previously, it was less flexible, but now, many different licensing options are available."
"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."
"The Community Edition comes free of charge."
"have installed the image of Bonita BPM on Amazon AWS and there is just one option to use and pay for."
"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
"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."
"The license is very expensive."
"Kissflow's licensing cost is lower than other products. However, the contract has changed with the second version they have given us, which is the low-code one."
"Your company must subscribe to the solution if you create a business account."
"The product costs $15 per user per month."
"This is an affordable product and everything is included in the subscription."
