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.
Choon Hwa Khoh - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers good flexibility to users
Improvements are required in the tool licensing area as it is a bit expensive. The tool's user interface needs improvement. If you don't know the tool as a beginner, it is very hard for you to design the workflow. The interface is actually quite confusing. There are a lot of places we need to configure here and there since there are multiple locations involved. The features or functions available are good enough for me to implement for my business activities. The tool can include topics like AI. I encountered an issue with the tool during the deployment into production. The server itself experienced a slowness-related issue caused by the configuration, where the resources were not enough for TIBCO, not because of the physical server. I raised a ticket with the support team and got some advice from them. I then went to study the server configuration, and finally, I found out that there will be a need to increase the threats in order for the server to process the multiple parallel incoming requests.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product allowed users to connect with flow chart elements with ease."
"Business process modelling and simulation."
"The interface, design, and accessible user manuals to help get started using the solution are valuable features in Bizagi."
"It is open source."
"I like the integration part, and I also like how they use the database, such as the data when they implement all the data side, and how you can easily integrate it with their widgets."
"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."
"The amount of control that this solution provides is great."
"BPMN 2.0 compliance, while you model the processes, the system can detect your notation errors."
"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward."
"The setup cost is definitely reasonable."
"The setup cost is definitely reasonable."
 

Cons

"I think that they could improve their update process. Some of the process mining techniques could be added to Bizagi. I think that they can improve their simulation abilities to include more elements of the BPMN."
"Can be difficult for new users."
"The on-premise software has some bugs."
"It works slowly on the cloud, sometimes."
"The solution needs to make it easier to use RPA products on it. They may need an RPA specific interface. It would be better than having to make an RPA tool to use for viewing. Most of our work is about making RPA tools with the Bizagi, not using Bizagi itself."
"I would like to see more in terms of analytics and better reporting."
"I would like to see the automation process included in the next release."
"I would like to see simulation as a free feature again. In version 3.3 it was free, but in 4.0 it isn't."
"The interface is actually quite confusing."
"An artificial intelligence feature that evaluates the quality of the code developed with one click would definitely be good."
"An artificial intelligence feature that evaluates the quality of the code developed with one click would definitely be good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use the free version of the solution because the price is in dollars, making it expensive for where we are in Brazil."
"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."
"I was using the free version."
"The paid version costs us about $20,000 for 100 users annually."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
"We have no issues with the pricing."
"From what I know of the market, I think Bizagi is a cheap solution for process engineering. Out of the solutions I've tried, from cheapest to most expensive, would be Vizor, Bizagi, Signavio, and then Siemens. I used a version of Bizagi that my university provided for free, so I have never paid for a license."
"For my company, the tool costs about 2,0,000 Euros for three years...If one is bad and ten is good, I rate the price as one out of ten."
