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.

Enabled us to consolidate workflows and reduce time spent searching for transactions
We have consolidated the workflow and have certain elements and functionalities developed in the new system so that my agents who are using the application don't have to do manual tasks searching for mail. So, we've consolidated and arranged some alerts and have done some segregation. The user is benefited, and the time spent on searching a transaction is reduced.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is stable. Even the older versions are stable."
"The solution is easy to use."
"In general, Bonita is a very good solution."
"We use the on-premises deployment model and the Bonita Community Edition of the solution."
"It is more than helpful, it is worth the effort of learning to better our company."
"Studio provides an opportunity to get early feedback from real users and quickly change the process and forms."
"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."
"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."
"It is working fine so far. I haven't heard anything bad about it from the applications team that is using it, so I assume that it is doing okay."
"The integration capabilities of Newgen OmniFlow are excellent due to its ready APIs, enabling easy API creation for consumption across different systems."
"I am overall satisfied with it; I didn't hear anything bad or any negative feedback about it, so far, so good."
"We have a huge customer satisfaction rate because we try to accommodate all the requirements of their business."
"The most valuable feature for us is the Omnicon. That made sense for us because our company is now able to capture information from documents."
"We have consolidated the workflow and have certain elements and functionalities developed in the new system so that my agents who are using the application don't have to do manual tasks searching for mail."
"The UI is easy. It's not very code based, so you can make certain changes on your end."
"This solution is very cost effective and very flexible."
 

Cons

"That said, creating custom connectors for 3rd party applications and APIs is still a challenging task."
"The dashboard has limited features."
"The documentation and examples definitely could be enhanced."
"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."
"Scalability of the Bonita BPM Community version is low."
"Bonita must add a rule engine. We are a 360-degree partner of Bonita. We can integrate with any kind of rule engine. We have a dashboard related to engine performance, but getting a configurable dashboard for the Buildium or transactional data will add value."
"There is a need for more components in the library and additional customization options for these components."
"The solution is stable. However, we have experienced a few bugs."
"There should be some reporting and dashboarding capabilities. I don't see such capabilities built into it. Sometimes, the leadership wants to understand the business cases that we want to automate. We face a lot of challenges to justify why we are using Newgen, and we need a way to present that to the leadership. If there is something out of the box and if we can get meaningful dashboards and reporting capabilities, it would be helpful."
"Newgen OmniFlow could improve by having more out-of-the-box integration modules. It would be beneficial to have an analytics model that is not currently present."
"There should be some reporting and dashboarding capabilities. I don't see such capabilities built into it."
"I would like to see more automated analytics built into the solution."
"The technical support is not very good. They have a very late response and do not have enough expertise on the support team."
"At the system level, I would like to see things be much more flexible, especially for different document templates and introducing changes."
"We had consistent issues of Newgen OmniFlow crashing. It's not compatible with bounce browsers like Chrome."
"From what I have seen so far, this system is too hardcoded and inflexible."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I am using the free version of Bonita."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"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 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."
"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."
"Overall, this solution is very cost effective when compared to other solutions in the market."
"The on-prem solution is affordable. The cloud solution is more expensive. There are no additional costs to the standard licensing fees."
"The price of Newgen OmniFlow is priced reasonably."
"Its price is a bit on the high side, but that's okay. From a company perspective, it is reasonable."
