Pros
"Process management is easy with Bizagi; validating processes and assigning resources is straightforward.""I find Bizagi so user friendly. I also think that its modeling abilities are great and it's easy to teach them to new users.""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 amount of control that this solution provides is great.""The most valuable feature is the organizational modeling capability.""The initial setup is super simple.""In Bizagi, all of the features are valuable.""I like that Bizagi is fully compatible with BPMN 2.0. It also eases the way in which we work with BPMN 2.0 itself, which is a comprehensive and rather complex notation standard."

More Bizagi Pros →

"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of OutSystems is easy.""We used almost all of the features, themes, styling guide, and approach components. They are useful in our applications.""The most valuable features of OutSystems are the user interface, the flexibility to quickly integrate with almost anything in the system, and the ability to connect with databases.""The tool makes the development process easier.""In terms of user support and community engagement, I rate the tool a ten out of ten.""OutSystems' best feature is that you can build tests with the flow, so even the tests are made in the PDD framework in a low-code way.""OutSystems is a low-code solution. Most features are like drag-and-drop, so it's pretty easy to work. Thus it helps the organization by saving time for developers.""There is literally a ton of stuff it can do. It's very flexible."

Cons
"I don't know if it's a problem with my operating system or a Bizagi problem, but many times I see that when I try to connect different activities, they show up as not connected.""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.""Agriculture, Industry.""In business process mapping, you have pools and dark pools. I don't see that Bizagi differentiates between a regular pool and a dark pool.""From a developer's point of view, an improvement in the layout would make the UI better.""I would like to see the automation process included in the next release.""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.""Sometimes, when your process is big with multiple lanes, the product will freeze the issue noticed on multiple laptops, not a single PC."

More Bizagi Cons →

"In OutSystems, cloud management is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The integration Studio could be improved. It needs a tool in which we could develop C# code and then integrate into OutSystems. The application could have a better UI.""The dashboards in OutSystems could improve. There are a lot of tabs in the service center that can be confusing.""We'd like OutSystems to add stronger workflow-based automation similar to what Appian offers. It needs more workflow modeling and RPA features.""We have performance issues while fetching bulk data.""I would like to see improvements in versioning. It can be challenging to keep track of what changes should be committed, especially when many developers are working in one environment.""The PDD framework can't be used for the behavioral-driven development way of working.""Mobile apps need improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Pricing is good value for money."
  • "For the prices, we didn't try a negotiations about licensing or pricing, but if i can say a word about this, I find Bizagi prices to be well thought out."
  • "The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
  • "It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."
  • "If they can freeze the pricing in a contract, I advise them to do so."
  • "I think that its price is reasonable."
  • "This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
  • "The Bizagi modeler can be downloaded free of charge."
  • More Bizagi Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "OutSystems was open to a deal that worked for both sides."
  • "It is still very expensive, so small companies can’t generally afford it... Still, the time saving on development and delivery is worth the value."
  • "You should contact OutSystems for more details but my opinion is that it is not for small business budgets."
  • "Pricing could be a concern. You have to pay yearly, even after you have completed your development."
  • "For a single application, it's too expensive."
  • "OutSystems is a good solution, but it's not cheap."
  • "I think the pricing for OutSystems is comparable with similar solutions. I would place it somewhere in the middle. We pay for the bundle and don't pay anything extra in terms of licensing and other fees."
  • "The subscription is billed on a yearly basis."
