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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I think Bizagi is a powerful software or tool for organization, but Bonita is user-friendly and easy-to-use — easier to use for development."
"It is a great product that is powerful in developing applications."
"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."
"In general, Bonita is a very good solution."
"Studio provides an opportunity to get early feedback from real users and quickly change the process and forms."
"I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features."
"Customer Service: Very good, also the commercial team !Technical Support: Perfect ! and the community is a great help also"
"Bonitasoft helped us automate complicated and labor intensive processes"
"It makes communication easier due to transparency on processes."
"We had great service directly from QPR."
"​Processes become clearer, easier to understand, and easier to spot in development areas."
 

Cons

"Scalability of the Bonita BPM Community version is low."
"I would like to improve the product's load balancing."
"The price is good, but I do not like the process instance annual quantity pricing base used today."
"I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation."
"The menus likely would be more intuitive if read in French. Things seem to be under strange headings at times."
"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."
"The initial setup is not easy compared to other products."
"There could be an improvement in IoT connectivity."
"There is definitely a need to produce models in XML. There is already something available, but it seems that transferring between the different modelling tools is difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price to service ratio with Bonita BPM is good."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."
"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."
"I believe this is a very good financial choice."
"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."
"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
