Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customer Service: Very good, also the commercial team !Technical Support: Perfect ! and the community is a great help also"
"We use the on-premises deployment model and the Bonita Community Edition of the solution."
"We use the tool to validate and give access to the users. It is for access management."
"Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable."
"In general, Bonita is a very good solution."
"The user interface is better than all of the open-source BPMs that I have tried."
"It is a great product that is powerful in developing applications."
"The Connector implementation is a great addition to an out-of-box solution providing robust features for the developer to build hassle-free integrations."
"I like that all the features come as part of a standard license and that one license covers everything."
"OpenText ProVision's best feature is the capability to attach a variety of attributes and extract and analyze that information."
"The stability of the product is very good."
 

Cons

"It is missing some important features that other products have."
"Bonita can improve by offering more flexibility."
"The main issue with Bonita is that the workspace crashes sometimes."
"I would like to improve the product's load balancing."
"The menus likely would be more intuitive if read in French. Things seem to be under strange headings at times."
"Installation could be made easier. I would like to see more automated processes."
"I should be able to park the tasks that are within a process in a kind of container, and dynamically, a super admin should be able to connect these processes. This kind of feature might be helpful."
"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."
"There are a number of drawbacks. Mainly, the collaboration is lacking to some extent - at least when it comes to how we are using it."
"Lacks the ability to have your own in-house developments."
"Integrating with or interfacing with other tools like data management tools would be very helpful."
"OpenText ProVision's collaboration management is quite complicated and difficult to use."
"My main complaint is that the solution is not open source in the sense that you can't have your own in-house developments."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
"have installed the image of Bonita BPM on Amazon AWS and there is just one option to use and pay for."
"I am using the free version of Bonita."
"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."
"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."
"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."
