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.
Micah Rachuonyo - PeerSpot reviewer
Principal Standardization Officer at KEBS
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

"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"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 and user-friendly."
"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."
"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"Bizagi has the capability to import-export with various modelling notations."
"The interface, design, and accessible user manuals to help get started using the solution are valuable features in Bizagi."
"It is open source."
"Bizagi is a good solution."
"I think the main competitive advantage of Bizagi is its user-friendly environment that allows you to drag and drop BPMN elements on its surface."
"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."
"I like the ease of use and the fact that you can download and use their free version, which is unlimited. However, while it's unlimited use, some features aren't available."
"The most valuable feature is that it is compatible with Visual Studio and .NET, and we can program it. Its speed is very good, and it is also stable and easy to deploy."
 

Cons

"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 in its user interface functionality."
"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 more scalable for our business if we could make certain changes, including adding the Russian language."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"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."
"One of the weak points is that you can't just export so I'd like to see an improvement in exporting features."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the costs can be lowered."
"It is difficult to drive ROI on types of processes involving complex business rules."
"It has slow performance."
"There is lots of instability with V 11.1. We are suspecting configuration management problems on the Bizagi side."
"Agriculture, Industry."
"Enhancing data generation methods for easier printing and refining the file attachment and user interface to optimize usability."
"The solution is a bit heavy on resources and has slowed down my computer."
"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."
"Pricing is good value for money."
"The price could be lower."
"I'm trying the free unlimited version with unlimited use. But you have to pay to add some features."
"It is expensive."
"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 not expensive."
"For the prices, we didn't try a negotiations about licensing or pricing, but if i can say a word about this, I find Bizagi prices to be well thought out."
"If they can freeze the pricing in a contract, I advise them to do so."
