OK
Product Manager & Student at University of Vienna
The tool supports university projects with effective modeling and a comprehensive toolset
The pure modeling capabilities with drag-and-drop elements for business process diagrams are excellent. The ability to move smoothly from the process landscape to the business process model diagram is appreciated. The simulation model is user-friendly, and the analysis features offer correct insights quickly. It helps me explore and identify the best candidates for automation. ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making.

Has helped me create clean and structured process maps with a simple setup experience
I have not explored ways Bizagi can be improved beyond creating maps. If I explore automation and integration with other processes, then I may be able to identify potential areas for improvement. I would appreciate additional features for the free version. Currently, the elements in a process map are limited to activities, decisions, flows, and start/end points. The decision map could be improved to allow more than three options at a decision point.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"It's a very complete solution and user-friendly."
"The support is fantastic and we have really good contact with them, it's very easy to use."
"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."
"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."
"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"This is a good solution for consulting firms and universities and is one of the best systems for analytics of business processes."
"The API is pretty straightforward."
"Bizagi is a very useful tool because it does not require you to program, and the user logic is very easy to understand, even for people who are not engineers nor developers."
"Bizagi has rich functionalities; compared to other BPMN tools, it has more features."
"This solution is easy to use and it is a good tool for process modeling."
"Bizagi is a great tool for creating, testing, and documenting process diagrams."
"The visualizations and attachments provided by the product are valuable."
"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."
"The user interface is pretty good."
 

Cons

"One of the weak points is that you can't just export so I'd like to see an improvement in exporting features."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"This solution would be more scalable for our business if we could make certain changes, including adding the Russian language."
"Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"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 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."
"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."
"It needs an easier setup for the Bizagi Engine."
"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."
"When you start working with information modeling, et cetera, here is no really good solution for the data modeling and information modeling."
"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."
"We have migrated to the cloud, but there are a lot of issues while integrating with the cloud. There are a lot of things to improve with the cloud and reporting. We were previously working with on-premise solutions, and we had access to a lot of things, but with the cloud, they changed a lot of functionalities. Some of the things we know, but with some of the things, we are having difficulties."
"It needs some better notation functionality."
"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."
 

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."
"I used to be very pleased with the pricing. Now, it's a bit more complicated. I don't remember exactly, however, it might be $10 a month per user."
"It is expensive."
"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 price could be lower."
"The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."
"We have no issues with the pricing."
"It has a very high price. Many clients complain about the price for maintaining the application on Bizagi."
