Integrates well and helpful support
Ultimus Adaptive Business Process Management has good integration with all the other tools we have been using in our company. We use the data that other tools provide in our implementation. We have developed several processes here in the company, such as requests for change, request development, and buying processes. The tool allows you to modify the business rules without the need to modify the source code, the administrator can move the process one step to another without needing to be implemented in the logic of the automation, this can be done from the administration console Or with the integration EIK, there is a wide number of options for the administrator who gives you great flexibility in your administration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most valuable features is you can create without coding, it is a low code platform."
"Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable."
"Bonita is user-friendly."
"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."
"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."
"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 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."
"Ultimus Adaptive Business Process Management has good integration with all the other tools we have been using in our company, and the tool allows you to modify the business rules without the need to modify the source code, giving great flexibility in administration."
"Development is easy on the Ultimus platform."
 

Cons

"The interface is advanced and quite good, but it could improve."
"Bonita can improve by offering more flexibility."
"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."
"Automation in vacation of a human resources replacement would be a good improvement in the product."
"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."
"At times Bonita BPM Studio crashes, intermittently."
"I would like to improve the product's load balancing."
"The tool does not save the reprocessing of the steps, this has to be done with own implementations, stores the whole story of a process instance but in a non-processable format for statistics without doing prior job."
"Ultimus is not good at handling cash transactions. They should add a mobile application in the next release."
"We are looking for a feature that can resign and move the process from one step to another step."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The Community Edition comes free of charge."
"Price to service ratio with Bonita BPM is good."
"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."
"I am using the free version of Bonita."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
"have installed the image of Bonita BPM on Amazon AWS and there is just one option to use and pay for."
"Ultimus could stand to lower the price. Other tools are cheaper."
