Effectively streamlines our business processes and provides seamless integration with other systems
With Bizagi, I streamline business processes, automate tasks, and drive digital transformation in my organization. Its user-friendly interface and seamless integration capabilities make it accessible for various business needs, although I'm curious about the potential benefits of the paid version…

It's a flexible open platform that is good for development in a complex environment
Zoho provides different channels for support, like chat and email. There's also a multi-brand support self-service support portal, but it's time-consuming to deal with it. If we create a portal on Zoho, we need to pay an additional cost per user. It's a flexible platform, but there are limitations, such as the EBI. We need to purchase additional EBIs and other features that some businesses require. If we are developing complex applications, we need to set up many virtual automation and use API calls. If we have data in various tables and need to import it all at once, it can be challenging to import it all. There are multiple data modeling relationships, so it is difficult to import into raw data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface is pretty good."
"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."
"The tool helps to improve business processes and have better KPIs. Also, it is easy to use. Our developers find it easy to learn."
"The visualizations and attachments provided by the product are valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the organizational modeling capability."
"It automates a completely manual, complicated process."
"The amount of control that this solution provides is great."
"With the appropriate governance framework, properly trained business analysts can be empowered to design and build business solutions themselves."
"Zoho Creator boasts a multitude of impressive features, but one of the most outstanding is its flexibility in creating interactive reports and pages. With Zoho Creator, users have the ability to utilize HTML and CSS to create visually appealing pages that are rich in information, utilizing data from the system itself. This exceptional feature provides a remarkable advantage and adds immense value to Zoho Creator."
"I just like the simplicity of it."
"It is very easy to build applications on the product."
"The most important thing is Zoho Creator's functionality. Other cloud platforms cannot provide its functionality."
"The solution's flexibility and quick turnaround are valuable."
"It has a simple user interface, not so difficult to use. You can add AI models, integration, and third-party connections."
"The integration capabilities in Zoho Creator are quite good and support our existing workload. It provides open and proprietary APIs, making interfacing with other applications easier."
"Zoho Creator helps to maintain the products in development."
 

Cons

"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."
"The technical support is not fast enough and should be improved."
"The performance could use improvement. We couldn't connect the processes to on one file. The performance is an issue for us."
"Framework approach, which extends to reusability in tools, like Pega, for deployment management could be improved."
"One thing that I don't like very much is related to integration: we have to develop some connectors... I would need a connector that connects to a REST service and that uses client ID in secret... They provide the means to develop a connector and use it, but they should implement this because REST services are among the most used protocols for web services."
"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."
"Bizagi allows for automation, but it's very complicated."
"When you start working with information modeling, et cetera, here is no really good solution for the data modeling and information modeling."
"We face issues while moving from one form to another form. We have a negative impression of the tool's support since they do not provide us assistance with our queries. They don't have solid answers to our questions."
"The UI must be improved."
"The product needs to improve stability and scalability. We faced issues with bugs."
"Could have more pre-built integrations for pulling data from the wider Zoho ecosystem as well as other systems."
"Zoho Creator falls short on data management, so we must connect it to other databases to handle larger datasets. However, it may still be sufficient for smaller databases. Better templates and examples for support teams or programming could be improved. Learning the Zoho Creator language, known as "Deluge," can be challenging for native programmers, so having clear examples and training materials would benefit users."
"I would like to see a simpler layout and interface. I would also like to see Zoho CRM and Zoho Campaigns integrated with the product."
"They should allow for more UI customization."
"Zoho Creator's UX design needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
"I think that its price is reasonable."
"Bizagi is totally free for modeling."
"Its price is reasonable."
"The pricing model is good; I believe it's free for up to 20 users, and then they start charging. I hear the solution can get quite expensive, however."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."
"Pricing is good value for money."
"The tool's pricing is flexible."
"The plan provided is presented on a monthly basis, giving an idea of the cost each month. However, the actual cost is calculated and charged on a yearly or annual basis. The cost is displayed in a detailed manner, breaking down the amount charged annually, and presenting it in a monthly format."
"Zoho Creator is the cheapest option in the market right now that can deliver this level of quality."
"The tool's licensing costs are annual. You need to pay more if you need a bigger database."
"The tool has three plans and one of them costs 50 dollars per month."
"It is at the bottom end of the price range."
"The Enterprise version costs INR 1500 per month."
"I rate the solution an eight out of ten for pricing since it is really cheap."
