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.

Intuitive toolset engages users effectively in agile projects
I would recommend Bizagi depending on the maturity of the organization. For those just starting, it's a good tool to get into business modeling. In more mature environments, I might not pick this toolset because it doesn't integrate with live systems well. Overall, I would rate Bizagi between eight to nine.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This is a good solution for consulting firms and universities and is one of the best systems for analytics of business processes."
"ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making."
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"The process modeling interface of ADONIS is very comprehensive, being more complete than Camunda in terms of process documentation and process components such as risks, KPI, and other process components, making it excellent for process documentation, compliance, and repository."
"It's a very complete solution and user-friendly."
"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"The support is fantastic and we have really good contact with them, it's very easy to use."
"My primary use case of this solution is process optimization."
"BPMN 2.0 compliance, while you model the processes, the system can detect your notation errors, plus it is free."
"Bizagi is a very powerful business process management engine, and you can take very niche processes and map them completely using the Bizagi engine."
"The product allowed users to connect with flow chart elements with ease."
"The solution is very stable; we haven't found any bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash, making it quite reliable."
"Bizagi has rich functionalities; compared to other BPMN tools, it has more features."
"Very user friendly and a professional solution."
"It is open source."
 

Cons

"Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"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."
"ADONIS needs improvement in its user interface functionality."
"One of the weak points is that you can't just export so I'd like to see an improvement in exporting features."
"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."
"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."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"Also, the tool sometimes feels not so mature when we find random deploy errors from testing to production environment."
"Framework approach, which extends to reusability in tools, like Pega, for deployment management could be improved."
"There is no direct scalability option. We can install the same, and using a load balancer, we can improve the scalability features."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the costs can be lowered."
"The technical support is not fast enough and should be improved."
"It works slowly on the cloud, sometimes."
"It's very difficult to contact support unless you pay for it."
"I would like to see simulation as a free feature again. In version 3.3 it was free, but in 4.0 it isn't."
 

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."
"The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Make sure that your requirements are explicitly defined from the outset. This will help you choose the right setup and licensing for your needs."
"I'm trying the free unlimited version with unlimited use. But you have to pay to add some features."
