Helps us bring processes to life and clarify them for stakeholders
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. Another area for improvement would be printing. It's just a small nuance to me, but if I've drawn a process that would fit on an 11 by 17 ledger page, but I really want it on a letter-size page, it doesn't show me how to shrink it down. Even if I say, "Go down to one page," it still shows me that I've got two pages. I don't know if it's a bug or if I might need more training. Where I worked before I could plot things. Now, I can only work with ledger, as large as eight and a half by 14. Sometimes, when you draw a business process, it doesn't really fit on a legal or letter-size page. But it should at least allow me to shrink it enough to fit on a letter-size page. If they had a little bit more training on printing and presentation, that would be good.

Excellent comprehensive reports and opportunity management but B2C lead management could improve
Our primary use case for this solution is lead management, mainly B2B as I don't think it's that good for the B2C model I would say that compared to our previous CRM, Salesforce helped us improve our lead management and lead assignments like location, performance, and other factors. We are able…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It automates a completely manual, complicated process."
"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."
"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."
"It can be useful as a tool to improve your communications and the control of your processes. For example, when you have to explain a process to seven or eight stakeholders who think differently as well as have different experiences in different functional departments, it is not easy. Sometimes you are using a lot of technical terms, and other times, you are dealing with management terminology. The visual representation helps you create a better alignment and understanding for different roles and stakeholders of your workforce."
"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."
"This solution is easy to use and it is a good tool for process modeling."
"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."
"BPMN 2.0 compliance, while you model the processes, the system can detect your notation errors."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate Salesforce Platform's technical support a ten out of ten."
"The reporting tools are very solid."
"I'm not sure what the most valuable aspect of the solution is, but I can say that their finance and auditing systems are quite impressive. You can audit in different invoices right to procurement. It's all quite seamless."
"One can do almost everything using Salesforce's OOTB functionality without much investment."
"It is a fairly useful and user-friendly tool for salespersons. It is very extensive and flexible. You can customize it for your needs, and you can use whatever you want. I like Salesforce."
"We haven't had any issues with stability so far."
"The stability has been great."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the unit coordination between sales and marketing when it comes to lead management."
 

Cons

"There could be more documentation."
"I would like to see more in terms of analytics and better reporting."
"It works slowly on the cloud, sometimes."
"For the small business, this is very bad because it is still fragmented. The licensing policy should be more flexible and small company oriented. In micro-small companies, there should only be one or two. That's not the problem. Maybe it is too flexible, there are so many pieces that you need to put together. When you have a small business, it can be a little complicated, not so easy."
"When you start working with information modeling, et cetera, here is no really good solution for the data modeling and information modeling."
"Cloud support for their process mapping tool could be better. To map all your processes in any way and call your data, you need to download their on-premise setup or their desktop setup. Cloud support for process mapping is limited, and they should work on that."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the costs can be lowered."
"Its price can be improved. The price is high for the application as well as for maintaining and developing applications. When you develop, for example, a BPM, you need to pay a lot for Bizagi."
"I have found it takes an exceedingly long time to put opportunities or clients in the system. If I have an opportunity that I need to put in the system it could take approximately 10 minutes. This is a lot of time when you have multiple opportunities to put in. There are other tasks to do that are required by supervisors, such as forecasts. What I have done to save time is I did not input as much detail as I could have because I knew it was going to take me an hour to get five leads in."
"The reporting needs improvement and the dashboard could have more components added."
"It is quite expensive. It has gotten to that point where it is a lot more pricey. It has kind of got its own proprietary language for development. It is probably never going to change, but if it had a more market language for development, it would be easier to find developers. They come at a premium cost, so it is expensive."
"The solution's UI is horrible."
"This platform is indeed on the expensive side."
"Its documentation and price should be better."
"I think the interface should be enhanced and more user-friendly."
"The pricing of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings that need improvement since, right now, I am not sure if Salesforce Platform has any plans for start-ups or small businesses."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is a free solution."
"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."
"The product must improve its cost."
"We have no issues with the pricing."
"The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
"We didn't use the licensed versions where you could exactly go into automatization. However, we looked at the pricing in the beginning, and the only thing that I remember is that it was too expensive for the things we were using because our clients would also have to license the product. One client said that it was too expensive for the benefit they get out of it."
"Pricing is good value for money."
"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
"It is expensive."
"Costly, but it is the top product in SaaS/PaaS. Pricing is more for large to enterprise level companies."
"It is expensive."
"It is expensive. Licensing is on an annual basis."
"rice-wise, the solution is reasonable for what we're getting."
"The licensing is per user per month, which we took out a contract on a long time back. It's really an okay price for what solutions are available and for how many features and what kind of functionality you get."
"Salesforce does a user capacity analysis on a regular basis. For example, if you're not using certain areas, you may lose access. If you don't go in and quote and edit quotes, all of a sudden you may lose your rights to quote."
"It is quite expensive. Its developers come at a premium cost, which makes it expensive."
