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.

A great ERP for medium and even small businesses
If one has experience in the ERP market, big brands like Microsoft require a lot of money over other platforms like Odoo. We can implement an on-premise model for some enterprise customers because it gives privacy and security. For other customers, we provide the cloud version. Currently, we recommend customers implement the ERP platform on the cloud environment because of the flexibility and scaling. I recommend that customers invest in a solution with the possibility of scaling in the future while providing many functions and features out of the box. In many ERPs we provide, although we would recommend ELMA as a default option for medium and even enterprise customers, they need bigger brands. ELMA 365 should be the second or third option for customers right now. I rate ELMA 365 a ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is that it is compatible with Visual Studio and .NET, and we can program it. Its speed is very good, and it is also stable and easy to deploy."
"Great mapping feature that's easy to use."
"The user logic is very easy to understand, even for people who are not engineers nor developers."
"The product allowed users to connect with flow chart elements with ease."
"The approval process is simple."
"Its cost is the most valuable. It is not as expensive. It is also easy to make different types of processes for the users."
"Process management is easy with Bizagi; validating processes and assigning resources is straightforward."
"The product has a comfortable GUI and a good environment for users."
"A lot of customers, when we introduce this kind of product into their organization, it provides a lot of analytics."
 

Cons

"Bizagi's UI should include shorter steps for documenting controls, documenting properties, changing some attributes in the object, and adding additional text."
"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."
"There is no direct scalability option. We can install the same, and using a load balancer, we can improve the scalability features."
"We have migrated to the cloud, but there are a lot of issues while integrating with the cloud. There are a lot of things to improve with the cloud and reporting. We were previously working with on-premise solutions, and we had access to a lot of things, but with the cloud, they changed a lot of functionalities. Some of the things we know, but with some of the things, we are having difficulties."
"Bizagi could be improved by more automation and machine learning. Now that I'm learning more about data analyzers, I'm realizing that many people have problems with data and how to understand them."
"I would like to see more in terms of analytics and better reporting."
"The on-premise software has some bugs."
"Difficult to export in formats other than PDF."
"Customers want improved productivity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is good value for money."
"It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."
"The pricing model is good; I believe it's free for up to 20 users, and then they start charging. I hear the solution can get quite expensive, however."
"Make sure that your requirements are explicitly defined from the outset. This will help you choose the right setup and licensing for your needs."
"I think that its price is reasonable."
"If they can freeze the pricing in a contract, I advise them to do so."
"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."
"This is a free solution."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
