"I like the business process management engine. It's very detailed, and you can probably map any of the corporate workflow processes you come across in it compared to some of the other solutions out there. I can probably say that it has very good support to work in tandem with other RP solutions in the market. The software is still very user-friendly and integral, and they have pretty good online resources. The automation feature is pretty good, so is the integration feature."
"This solution is easy to use and it is a good tool for process modeling."
"The visualizations and attachments provided by the product are valuable."
"Bizagi is simple. It's simple to learn."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The most valuable feature is that it is a very fast reverse engineering process. It does a very expansive comparison."
"The solution is a very pragmatic tool. It's quite easy to use."
"I mostly work on the conceptual and logical side of things, and I enjoy how easy it is to use."
"The most valuable features of the solution are it's built very well, easy to use, and simple to describe freely what is needed in logical and physical data models."
"The most valuable features of SAP PowerDesigner are the creation the flow charts and folders. It is a powerful tool."
"SAP PowerDesigner is an excellent tool that does what I need it to do. What I like most about it is that it's stable, fast, and easy to understand."
"The feature I found valuable in SAP PowerDesigner is extraction. I also like that my company hasn't faced any issues because of the clear documentation about SAP PowerDesigner."
"Bizagi doesn't have integrations with other solutions, such as ERP systems. In the industry and your company, you have a lot of systems with which you need to integrate, but Bizagi doesn't have such integrations, which makes it very difficult. Its scalability can also be improved. It is good for a startup, but when you need something more complex, it is not good."
"It would be useful if we can connect Bizagi to other solutions, such as a local financial solution or Power BI. It would also be good and helpful to be able to connect Bizagi to some services solutions. It should also support right-to-left languages, such as Arabic."
"The performance could use improvement. We couldn't connect the processes to on one file. The performance is an issue for us."
"I would like to see the automation process included in the next release."
"It works slowly on the cloud, sometimes."
"They should improve the migration process between major versions, from version 9 to 10, we had to redo our implementation."
"The product used to have a simulation feature, which I had used quite often. However, it's since been discontinued. It might have originally been a paid feature. It would be nice if they could bring it back and offer it for free."
"It should provide the ability to create a simple application. It can be used for database modeling diagrams and forms, but it should also support CRUD, that is, create, read, update and delete."
"In terms of improvement, the pricing is a bit high."
"SAP PowerDesigner can improve the ease of use. It is not the best tool on the market because it is tough to navigate and use. A beginner would not be able to use it well, it requires some experience. If the solution was more user-friendly it would be able to be used by more audiences. I do not think many people are aware of this solution and they should use it."
"The tool lags in the area of customer service."
"There are some minor things that could be easier. We're writing up procedures to bring all the modeling back into one group as this reduces delays in production."
"The data governance should be improved, like ER/Studio."
"This product lacks artificial intelligence that should be very good in terms of automatically identifying the classification of elements."
"I've tried to use Power Designer to bring in images, which didn't work very well at all."
"Not very intuitive or user-friendly."
