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.

Enhancing user experience and data management with effective central repository capabilities
The area of improvement with OpenText 360 for SharePoint is that sometimes there are unexpected service outages. Though these situations are rare, I want to highlight that in case of any outage in the services, because everything is located in SharePoint, there is a chance that reports start failing or dashboards fail, or the system behaves differently. In future updates, I would want to see widgets available in OpenText 360 for SharePoint to interact with third-party tools. For example, when creating a dashboard, having the ability to embed these directly into SharePoint would be beneficial. Currently, I have to use hyperlinks to access other tools such as Tableau or ClickView. If it were possible to merge everything and bring all information from multiple teams (Cognos, ClickView, AWS) into SharePoint as a centralized place, it would be really helpful. That is what I envision for the integrator part.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface is better than all of the open-source BPMs that I have tried."
"Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable."
"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."
"The Connector implementation is a great addition to an out-of-box solution providing robust features for the developer to build hassle-free integrations."
"Bonitasoft helped us automate complicated and labor intensive processes"
"Bonita is user-friendly, and the features are useful."
"Customer Service: Very good, also the commercial team !Technical Support: Perfect ! and the community is a great help also"
"Studio provides an opportunity to get early feedback from real users and quickly change the process and forms."
"We have manual processes, so the workflow enables us to automate a number of these processes."
"OpenText Process 360 is modular and has more features than other products from a financial point of view."
"Overall, I would rate OpenText 360 for SharePoint as ten."
"OpenText 360 for SharePoint significantly saves time for users by streamlining the tasks of handling, searching, and maintaining documents compared to traditional file servers."
"The most valuable feature of OpenText 360 for SharePoint is its performance. The solution is one of the best in the market if you search the internet."
"The product has a strong and easy integration with Teams."
"OpenText 360's best features are platform independence and its performance when searching large numbers of documents."
"We concentrate on the legal industry, such as legal libraries. It's the most structured solution we have used and implemented for five years."
 

Cons

"I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation."
"So Bonita is easy to use but it seems to be missing some powerful features that competing products have."
"Scalability of the Bonita BPM Community version is low."
"The price is good, but I do not like the process instance annual quantity pricing base used today."
"The documentation and examples definitely could be enhanced."
"Automation in vacation of a human resources replacement would be a good improvement in the product."
"BPMN 2.0 notations are not all supported, would love to see them all coming in (e.g. complex gateway)."
"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."
"I would like for there to be even more integrations in the next release and I believe that the price could go down a bit."
"They need to come with more out of the box solutions, rather than depending on customers to develop them."
"They are not going for any add-ons right now. It's the same version we are still using and there is no plan of upgrading and/or creating any add-ons at all."
"In the future, I would like to see new features in SharePoint for improved project tracking processes."
"To be honest, my experience with OpenText is that usually, they are not doing too much on quality assurance with their product."
"Its licensing needs to be simplified. Currently, its licensing is very complex."
"The GUI should be improved for better user experience. Additionally, while there are standard connectors for automation and approvals in Power Platform, some tasks still need to be handled with API request calls instead of direct connectors, which could be improved."
"The graphical user interface had to be more user-friendly. It's not as intuitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The Community Edition comes free of charge."
"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
"I believe this is a very good financial choice."

"On-premises version is expensive"
"The solution has a very complex pricing model."
"SharePoint uses a subscription model."
"Its price is reasonable, but its licensing is very complex. This platform contains a number of pieces, and you have to be an expert in reading all the conditions in the license. They should simplify its licensing."
"It has a reasonable price."
"Pricing is a part of the enterprise agreement that we have."
"There is a license needed to use OpenText 360 for SharePoint and we pay annually. The price of the solution could be less expensive."
