Paparao Nadipineni - PeerSpot reviewer
Architect at Evoke
A simple and lightweight college course automation system with third-party integrations
The initial setup is straightforward and can be completed with the environment within an hour. First, take the latest from the git repository and check the git code to the monitor studio and a bar file, a deployable Bonita archive file. Then, take that process to the Bonita server, running at runtime on another server. Finally, deploy and enable it by selecting the proper organization.

Handles large data volumes effectively and offers competitive pricing
There is a lot of improvement required, as we still face some cache issues most of the time, which is a challenge that we expect to see resolved in the future. Additionally, there is some limitation when we are working with a tool, especially regarding In and Out parameters, and I feel that this aspect should be improved going ahead. We face issues with the API side, as Cloud Application Integration cannot handle large volumes; according to the API page, there is a limitation of 500 records or 500 MB. The AI integrated into the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services solution is called Application Integration, where we still face challenges when dealing with huge volumes, as previously explained.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a great product that is powerful in developing applications."
"One of the most valuable features is you can create without coding, it is a low code platform."
"Customer Service: Very good, also the commercial team !Technical Support: Perfect ! and the community is a great help also"
"This product is very easy-to-use and user-friendly."
"The solution is easy to use."
"We use the tool to validate and give access to the users. It is for access management."
"Our lead generation system involves both automated and human tasks. By centralizing the workflow to our internal Bonita BPM system, we have improved the conversion rate (leads to customers) and lowered the number of leads dropped."
"The most valuable features of Bonita are the connectors, detailed documentation, and web applications. The documentation was useful because it is how I learned how to use it."
"We've used the solution for quite some time, so in our organization, the product is pretty mature."
"It is a highly scalable solution."
"The product improves data quality."
"The interface has a great look and feel, and the functionality is so easy."
"It has become an easy way to exchange information through any cloud application."
"The solution is stable."
"The reusability factors are nice. The Cloud Data Quality is much better. A major flaw in the previous version was integration with the catalog, which is now seamless."
"The solution's technical support is pretty good, especially since the turnaround time is good."
 

Cons

"BPMN 2.0 notations are not all supported, would love to see them all coming in (e.g. complex gateway)."
"I would like to improve the product's load balancing."
"The community edition has limited module functionality. If they could release some of the functionality that's available in the enterprise edition that would be helpful to those learning to use the solution."
"Automation in vacation of a human resources replacement would be a good improvement in the product."
"Scalability of the Bonita BPM Community version is low."
"That said, creating custom connectors for 3rd party applications and APIs is still a challenging task."
"There is a considerable learning curve."
"It is missing some important features that other products have."
"Informatica goes down for maintenance quite a lot due to the upgrades."
"They have too many diversified products. If you don't know Informatica, it's very confusing and feels very idiotic."
"They could improve technical support because it is not good enough at the moment."
"One area that could use improvement is the speed of the web interfaces. At present, they are very slow. I think it is essential that we are original and robust on-premises."
"Mainly, MDM requires improvement when you need to migrate your version to a later one -- because it is very difficult and takes a lot of time to convert the processes you have already developed and implemented on a previous version, and can cause a need to rework the processes."
"This solution is hard to set up and its interface is not user-friendly. It's also not as stable, and the technical support takes a lot of time to solve simple problems."
"Most of the new features added by Informatica are through Elastic Mapping. It would be helpful to have features like multithreading or partitioning for Salesforce to enhance performance."
"Informatica Axon needs more integration connectors so that it can connect to systems and different kinds of datasets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
"I am using the free version of Bonita."
"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."
"Price to service ratio with Bonita BPM is good."
"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."
"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
"The product is very expensive"
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price, and ten is high price."
"It's pretty high for us. It's more on the higher side, like low to middle high."
"The solution is expensive."
"I have heard from customers that the product comes with a huge license cost."
"Its pricing model can be improved."
"The solution is very expensive."
"Informatica Cloud Data Integration is famously known for its high price. The vendor targets large enterprises, and not medium or small companies. These large companies, and organizations, handle large amounts of data. If you go into any large bank, such as American or Canadian banks, these banks use this solution because it is more reliable, secure, and has more functionality."
