A flexible, customizable solution that reduced time to market, but the UI and customer support could be better

The ability to write our own code inside each activity is beneficial. Sometimes we need to create functionality that doesn't come out of the box, and this allows us to do that. The orchestration capabilities provided by the solution are good; they're helpful and fully functional, plus Bizagi has a management consultant to assist. However, they could be better, and there is significant room for improvement. We can adapt processes we created with Bizagi as our business grows and more processes become automated. We have been doing that on a live process, and it works very well. If the change we are implementing is very different to a traditional workflow, we can create a new version and design cases in the new version instead of the older one. We can modify processes already in place if the change isn't too disruptive, or we can keep using the same platform but create cases in a new workflow instead of the old one, so there's a lot of flexibility. Adapting processes is straightforward, though it depends somewhat on the complexity of the process. Making minor modifications is not complicated; we go into the studio, change the piece of code, workflow, or data model we need, and then redeploy.

A solution with great server management and helps improve performance.

We use this product for integration and use a bidirectional approach. Some cases are created in service now, which are pushed to Salesforce. When an item is created in Salesforce, it is also created in ServiceNow which exposes some risk APIs. Those risk APIs are Salesforce, snow and sales group…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a free solution that allows us to create quality visualizations for our company."

"The ability to write our own code inside each activity is beneficial. Sometimes we need to create functionality that doesn't come out of the box, and this allows us to do that."

"Bizagi is flexible. I can share things with other consultants because it is the most commonly used software in my community. It has been a great and good resource for us in making sure that we adhere to the process."

"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."

"Bizagi is really great for beginners because it's user-friendly and you can learn in it quickly, whereas other similar software are harder."

"The user interface is pretty good."

"It has an easy to use interface which final users accepted with much more enthusiasm than our ERP (SAP)."

"The most valuable feature is the simulation."

More Bizagi pros

"The most beneficial aspect of Microsoft Azure App Service is its automated DevOps deployment, which includes configurations that ensure secure connections to key vault and database resources."

"What I found most valuable in Microsoft Azure App Service is that it's a PaaS. I also like that it supports Docker and multiple frameworks so that you can work on Java, Ruby on Rails, PHP, and Python."

"The most valuable features of this solution are the easy deployment, the scalability, and the Azure maintenance."

"The product is scalable."

"The Logic Apps and Azure functions are very robust."

"I like that it's a ready-to-use, out-of-the-box solution that provides all of the necessary functions for customers, such as codes that can be quickly switched from the production version, or from test and DEV versions to production."

"Enroll in some kind of formal training, not from Microsoft, but from a partner, and keep up with the change because the Azure platform changes a lot."

"The primary and standout feature is ease of deployment."

More Microsoft Azure App Service pros

Cons

"The data in Excel that comes out after running the simulation is a bit complicated sometimes to interpret."

"The performance could use improvement. We couldn't connect the processes to on one file. The performance is an issue for us."

"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 a facility for building a simple CRUD application. In Bizagi, you can use database modeling, diagrams, forms, etc., but in some circumstances I need CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) functionalities which are not there yet."

"The solution was very limited."

"There could be more documentation."

"Enhancing data generation methods for easier printing and refining the file attachment and user interface to optimize usability."

"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."

More Bizagi cons

"The pricing is average. It could be lower."

"Limited integration is an area for improvement in Microsoft Azure App Service. Another area for improvement in the platform is multi-language support."

"Extended uptime and improved speed would be beneficial for both development purposes and the free tier of the service. Currently, the uptime is limited to a few hours per day, which could be increased to provide more continuous and efficient usage."

"In terms of improvement, the technical support could be better."

"The cost management of this solution could be better. We only receive estimations."

"If you are not using the product properly, then it can cost you a lot of money. Hence, you need to make sure that you choose the services wisely. You need to make sure that you have a budget and have some alerts associated with it. The tool's cost can easily go high if you don't consider these things properly. You need to review your existing subscription."

"When trying to scale up, it has a limitation, specifically an upper limitation. In general, scalability should be improved."

"In terms of room for improvement, ease of deployment would be an area that needs some focus. Azure does provide out-of-the-box deployment features, but I found that deploying to an App Service instance can be better in terms of more tools that could be available to perform a deployment."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I'm trying the free unlimited version with unlimited use. But you have to pay to add some features."

"We have no issues with the pricing."

"The product must improve its cost."

"I think that its price is reasonable."

"My company uses the free version of the product."

"Bizagi is totally free for modeling."

"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."

More Bizagi pricing and cost advice

"The cost is reasonable."

"We have no complaints about the pricing."

"Less than USD $100 per month."

"As you move up the license tiers it becomes expensive."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing a five. The product is affordable."

"The pricing for this solution is set in tiers, with the overall cost depending on the features that are required. I would advise organizations to have a detailed look at the functions they need, to ensure that they are in the correct pricing tier."

"Where there are different customer sizes, some customers consume $5,000 US dollars per month. I have some customers who pay and consume more than $20,000 US dollars per month, for example. It is determined by customer sizes and requirements, which vary from month to month."

"The pricing for Microsoft Azure App Service is per hour, and you're billed per hour, and it depends on the plan you're using. Each plan can host up to a minimum of four to eight applications at a time, so the pricing is quite okay with how I use Microsoft Azure App Service currently, but with the little testing I've done, I saw that some other regions tend to be costlier than others. If the same SLE is delivered for all services, there should be a way to make the prices parallel across regions. Having more transparent pricing for Microsoft Azure App Service would give customers more comfort."
