Process capabilities impress while user setup requires streamlining

I stopped using ADONIS because it is not capable of integrating and automating business processes for the POC. I see that Camunda is more capable for our POC project to orchestrate business processes. We also plan to integrate with UiPath because currently, we are focusing on task automations, not process orchestrations. In the future, we plan to implement process orchestrations. I see that Camunda can integrate UiPath into the process, process model, and process integrations. ADONIS needs improvement mainly in user-friendliness, setup, and installations. As an administrator at that time, I found it quite difficult to manage users because I needed to open specific software, possibly Java-based, which is not web-based and should be installed first to manage the users.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."

"ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making."

"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."

"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."

"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."

"It's a very complete solution."

"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"

"With the appropriate governance framework, properly trained business analysts can be empowered to design and build business solutions themselves."

"It is open source."

"One of the features I like is that when drawing any task, when putting a task on the process model canvas, I can simply click on it and see the other task icons for that task. It's just one quick, simple, straightforward connectivity from task to task."

"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 main feature of Bizagi is the speed to which we can automate processes and how we can modify them without a strong impact on the end users."

"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 tool helps to improve business processes and have better KPIs. Also, it is easy to use. Our developers find it easy to learn."

"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."

Cons

"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."

"There is a function to check if the model BPMN is being used correctly, but the report from the check is not always very clear."

"ADONIS needs improvement in its user interface functionality."

"The solution is in English and we have added certain parts in Russian as this is easier for our students. It would be useful to have the system in Russian."

"Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better."

"ADONIS needs improvement mainly in user-friendliness, setup, and installations. As an administrator at that time, I found it quite difficult to manage users because I needed to open specific software, possibly Java-based, which is not web-based and should be installed first to manage the users."

"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."

"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."

"Bizagi allows for automation, but it's very complicated."

"The open source version lacks the option to publish."

"The performance could use improvement. We couldn't connect the processes to on one file. The performance is an issue for us."

"I don't know if it's a problem with my operating system or a Bizagi problem, but many times I see that when I try to connect different activities, they show up as not connected."

"The product must make automation easier."

"Bizagi could be improved by more automation and machine learning. Now that I'm learning more about data analyzers, I'm realizing that many people have problems with data and how to understand them."

"Its performance needs to be improved. The main thing is that it is limited, especially in terms of the response times. When the processes become a bit large, it is very awkward to work with the Bizagi modeler. When you have already modeled but start to rearrange, it is quite a bit of an effort to change the stuff. When you rearrange lanes or have new structures, it goes rather squiggly up and down and so on, which could be improved. The visual outputs of the DIREPs of the process models are pixelated and have a bad image quality. It is a PNG or JPEG, and you cannot export it as a PDF. When you have rather large processes, you should be able to arrange them hierarchically. Currently, it is not supported. If you use sub-processes and inflate a process, suddenly the arrangement is totally different, and although you know the process, you have to look where is it now. You need a good understanding of the levels of your processes before you start in Bizagi. It can have automatic support for optimal presentation. In BPM, you should have it from the top left to the bottom right. However, in most cases, people don't know how they should arrange it. Therefore, it would be nice to have a suggestion system for different arrangements to be able to better present the process."

"It works slowly on the cloud, sometimes."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is medium, so I rate it a five out of ten."

"The product’s price is quite competitive."

"It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."

"Pricing is good value for money."

"This is a free solution."

"When we were working with the on-premises solution, the licenses were a little bit expensive because we had to buy one by one a package of a hundred licenses, whereas now, we are working with the cloud solution, and it has a different cost. It's a different business model because we pay the license for the developers, but the cost is by the environment, and we have unlimited licenses. The business model is different now, but the benefit ratio is good."

"The price could be lower."

"We use the free version of the solution because the price is in dollars, making it expensive for where we are in Brazil."

"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."
