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.

Customer data has driven better decisions and highlights where workflow automation still needs improvement

The downside of Studio Creatio is when it is marketed as a no-code platform, it does not support creating any website or mobile application. It is an ecosystem or environment within which a user, developer, or implementation partner has to develop process automation. It is not a drag-and-drop tool to create an application. It is a workflow automation process and enterprise-grade application where an understanding of the platform is essential to use Studio Creatio. It is not an absolute no-code solution. There are some areas with no-code flexibilities, but for specific business use cases or workflows, an understanding of the Studio Creatio ecosystem and .NET technologies is essential.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Flexible and drag-and-drop type of UI is very valuable. The integrations are also very good. You can build workflows very quickly, which is my favorite activity. By using the GUI, you can build the entire mechanism, notifications, and all this kind of stuff."

"Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable."

"I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features."

"It is a great product that is powerful in developing applications."

More Bonita pros

"It enables automating tasks and provides self-service options, ultimately improving efficiency and customer satisfaction."

"From a 6,000-foot level, just the collaboration piece that we've already gained with our sales cycle is invaluable, absolutely invaluable."

More Studio Creatio pros

Cons

"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."

"I would like to improve the product's load balancing."

"I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation."

"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 interface is advanced and quite good, but it could improve."

"The initial setup is not easy compared to other products."

"The menus likely would be more intuitive if read in French. Things seem to be under strange headings at times."

More Bonita cons

"It does not have the ability to run one single large process."

"I can have several types of contacts, customers, employees, partners, and so on, and I would like to have a different view for each type of contact in the list view. Currently, there is no way to configure this. This is something I would like Creatio to improve. In this time of COVID, it is very important that all such solutions improve omnichannel communications and omnichannel marketing. Companies need to communicate with customers by using not just the phone number and email but also by using social networks. All companies today need artificial intelligence, machine learning, the internet of things, and social communication."

"It does not have the ability to run one single large process."

"The mobile version of the solution could be improved. It's hard to customize it."

"The downside of Studio Creatio is when it is marketed as a no-code platform, it does not support creating any website or mobile application."

"The solution does not allow extensive customization of the UI. I would like to have much more control over the UI when I build a process. Currently on the UI where the fields are placed and the layout is set in place and you cannot change it. Your experience is going to be the same throughout whatever use case that you are building from customer to customer. You can not have much control over how it looks for each customer. This is an area where they can improve on."

"Numerous options can make implementation confusing."

"HRM is an area where Studio Creatio lacks and needs to improve."

More Studio Creatio cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe this is a very good financial choice."

"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."

"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."

"Price to service ratio with Bonita BPM is good."

"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."

"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 price is fair for what we are using the solution for."

More Bonita pricing and cost advice

"The pricing plans are not user-friendly because in many cases you have to buy different options to get additional features."

"From my standpoint, it blows out of the water all the other competitors out there that we were potentially looking at, and it was in a reasonable price range, whereas you have these other Fortune 500 companies that were asking for a ridiculous amount."

"I rate the product price a five or six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."

"It is fairly competitive."

"The tool is reasonably priced."

"There is a license required for this solution."
