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.
Julius Jagdon - PeerSpot reviewer
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

Pros

"Kissflow is intuitive and easy to use, and I haven't faced any errors using the solution so far."
"I work in HR and am fond of automation. I like the tool's email automation and integration with Outlook."
"The flexibility and speed in modifying and creating processes are great features. If we have a process in mind, we can usually create it within ten minutes."
"The support team responds fast."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"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 its user-friendliness."
"The best thing about KiSSFLOW is that we can do virtual approvals."
 

Cons

"The dashboard has limited features."
"The documentation and examples definitely could be enhanced."
"Installation could be made easier."
"The price is good, but I do not like the process instance annual quantity pricing base used today."
"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."
"There is a considerable learning curve."
"Bonita can improve by offering more flexibility."
"It is missing some important features that other products have."
"KiSSFLOW needs to improve its integration."
"They should increase their marketplace with existing tools so that connections are directly through connectors instead of API integrations."
"The UI, though is pretty friendly and easy to use, can be improved in some aspects."
"When there are multiple steps or if there's a disconnect when creating the ticket, it could be a problem for the user."
"If Kissflow can help users to be able to organize the company manuals and information, the blogs, and everything into one resource, that would be awesome."
"In future releases, it would be interesting to have a repository or portal within KiSSFLOW where users can interact with the KiSSFLOW community."
"Some of the tool's fields only accept certain types of text. The input fields are inflexible."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability."

"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."
"This is an affordable product and everything is included in the subscription."
