Brigitte Klinkenberg - PeerSpot reviewer
A strong choice for business process modeling with an easy-to-use drag and drop approach
I design, maintain, and govern the tool to roll it out in the company. I use the solution for business process modeling. For ADOIT, the solution is used for enterprise architecture management or the maintenance of application landscapes Besides BPMN, it's easy to handle the solution thanks to…
Paparao Nadipineni - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables budget review efficiency with open source advantages and workflow orchestration
Definitely, right now, it is purely open source, and we don't have much community support. If they add a few more capabilities like AIML and DocGen AI, these features would be good. Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased. Otherwise, people cannot onboard that particular technology easily.

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

Pros

"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."
"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"It's a very complete solution."
"It is a stable solution."
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making."
"The natural notation is the best feature of Bizagi because it makes it compatible with other products."
"The main feature of Bizagi is the speed to which we can automate processes and how we can modify them without a strong impact on the end users."
"The visualizations and attachments provided by the product are valuable."
"Great software for managing my business. I think this is the best business process management software."
"Process management is easy with Bizagi; validating processes and assigning resources is straightforward."
"In Bizagi, all of the features are valuable."
"It is easy to use and easy to learn. It is also fully compatible with BPMN virtual tool. Bizagi is very fast in responding to and fixing the issues."
"The product enables the users to automate the processes and provides a good user experience."
 

Cons

"Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better."
"ADONIS needs improvement in its user interface functionality."
"There is a function to check if the model BPMN is being used correctly, but the report from the check is not always very clear."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"The solution is in English and we have added certain parts in Russian as this is easier for our students. It would be useful to have the system in Russian."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"When you update a page, the information on the quick links sidebar on the left side doesn't stay in the same place. It moves down, so you have to scroll to find it. That's not very user-friendly."
"The gateway through which it connects with other vendors, specifically RPA vendors, is one aspect that could be improved."
"The solution was very limited."
"Sometimes, when your process is big with multiple lanes, the product will freeze the issue noticed on multiple laptops, not a single PC."
"Can be difficult for new users."
"It needs some better notation functionality."
"The data in Excel that comes out after running the simulation is a bit complicated sometimes to interpret."
"It works slowly on the cloud, sometimes."
"Bizagi has been aggressively adding features to maintain its market-leading position, however, in some cases, this has impacted the stability of certain product builds."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product’s price is quite competitive."
"The product's pricing is medium, so I rate it a five out of ten."
"The Bizagi modeler can be downloaded free of charge."
"The price could be lower."
"This is a free solution."
"When we were working with the on-premises solution, the licenses were a little bit expensive because we had to buy one by one a package of a hundred licenses, whereas now, we are working with the cloud solution, and it has a different cost. It's a different business model because we pay the license for the developers, but the cost is by the environment, and we have unlimited licenses. The business model is different now, but the benefit ratio is good."
"The paid version costs us about $20,000 for 100 users annually."
"I used to be very pleased with the pricing. Now, it's a bit more complicated. I don't remember exactly, however, it might be $10 a month per user."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."
