The complexity of versions in Adonis Platform depends on how complicated they are. If you create a simple flow, it is easy, but you can create flows with swimlanes and quite tricky options, and then it can become very large and very complicated. For simple tasks or for simple processes from operations, it is easy. Something that I miss in Adonis Platform is that we do not have a way to see who made changes. You can only see if you change the versions; you can see the older version, but you cannot see the history. Maybe if I work on Monday and I make some changes there, I can see the results today, but I cannot see the steps in between, the history. I miss the history. We also have an issue that we would really like to use AI, but it is a little bit difficult because we do not want to have all our processes available for external AI. So we have to create an internal AI, and I do not know if we are going to do it because this might be very expensive. I wish it would be easier for Adonis Platform to have some AI integrated. Also, the concept of rights is very difficult because everybody can access Adonis Platform, but only in a view-only mode. It is a very complicated process with ordering your rights for Adonis Platform because there are many different departments using Adonis Platform and they do not want everybody to be able to change their processes. So we have a rights concept for Adonis Platform, and it is quite complicated. The user permissions are very complicated and annoying. Overall I am satisfied with Adonis Platform, but it takes a while until you learn how it works. There are many questions from colleagues about how it works, what you can do, and what things mean. There is quite a lot of training necessary. I still think that AI would be a great contribution for Adonis Platform. For example, if you could tell AI to build you a process in BPMN style for whatever process, and AI would do it automatically, that would be perfect, but currently we are still doing it manually.

Real-time chat has boosted one-to-one messaging and user engagement in my mobile projects
The best features PubNub offers, in my opinion, are one-to-one chat, as I mentioned in my review, and the great SDK documentation which allows for easy integration that does not take much time. Setting up channels, message listeners, tracking user status to determine whether users are online or offline, and ensuring reliable message delivery are all great features. I find myself relying on all three of those features the most because the presence tracking is great, the delivery speed is superb compared to other SDKs, and the user status updates immediately pop up, which is significant. The integration is very easy, so any new developers can easily understand the integration process thanks to the clear documentation. PubNub has positively impacted my organization as I have received numerous reviews and feedback stating that the chat works much faster and cleaner, and everyone appreciates it, saying it feels powerful. After implementing PubNub, I noticed positive outcomes such as client feedback acknowledging that they enjoyed the chat features and found them much faster than in other applications, which I believe is very positive feedback for any organization.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"Adonis Platform has positively impacted my organization because, considering the region is something new, in the last few years we have had some kind of transformation."
"Adonis Platform has had a great impact on my organization as we are able to see end-to-end process mapping and identify areas for process improvement."
"Recently, I worked on invoice processing in accounts payable where analysis showed the process took 42 minutes, and through optimization efforts, we reduced it to approximately four minutes, achieving significant time reduction and cost savings."
"Adonis Platform has positively impacted my organization by enabling us to connect processes with swim lanes, clearly defining roles, the systems used in the process, and the risks involved."
"I can see all the different processes from the private bank within Adonis Platform, and that is excellent."
"PubNub has positively impacted my organization as I have received numerous reviews and feedback stating that the chat works much faster and cleaner, and everyone appreciates it, saying it feels powerful."
"PubNub has positively impacted my organization by reducing implementation time and developers' work, making it very easy to implement and enabling fast development that has reduced the developers' time by 40-50%."
"The speed and efficiency of PubNub, which helps transfer data in real-time with very low latency, received positive feedback from our customers."
"If we had implemented all of this on our own, we would have had to hire at least 50 more employees for that, so we are very happy with PubNub and we have saved a lot of time."
"PubNub saves development time because we do not have to create a complete chat backend and frontend from scratch, enabling a plug-and-play approach that saves time, effort, and money for the company."
"PubNub's push notification and chat features stand out because of ease of use and very easy integration within our application."
 

Cons

"The user permissions are very complicated and annoying."
"I would advise using Adonis Platform. My overall review rating for Adonis Platform is six out of ten."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the pricing and setup cost are high, while the licensing is acceptable."
"Adonis Platform is stable in my experience, but sometimes some functions are not available or do not work as they should."
"For improvement of Adonis Platform, I want to see how we can connect it to ERPs and look at compliance of the processes being built."
"I would advise using Adonis Platform. My overall review rating for Adonis Platform is six out of ten."
"The reliability of PubNub is really good, but occasionally we face issues where users complain about messages or push notifications not being delivered within a short period of time, as it occasionally takes longer, which could be due to outages."
"Regarding customer support from PubNub, around six years ago, we did not receive good support."
"Most of the time there are some instances at the load peak hours or sometimes payload is missed by the application or SDK at the SDK level."
"Since PubNub is a paid library, it may not be useful for everyone."
"I gave PubNub a rating of nine out of ten because of the many features discussed, but I deducted one point because the cost increases with scale."
"I believe PubNub can improve in terms of pricing transparency, as I previously mentioned, since that is the only thing I think should be improved because for smaller projects or startups, estimating scaling costs can be challenging."
