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.

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

"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."
"It's a very complete solution and user-friendly."
"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."
"This is a good solution for consulting firms and universities and is one of the best systems for analytics of business processes."
"The support is fantastic and we have really good contact with them, it's very easy to use."
"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"BPMN 2.0 compliance, while you model the processes, the system can detect your notation errors, plus it is free."
"Bizagi is a good solution."
"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."
"Your team can work on it having basic training about databases and BPM modeling."
"I can't think of anything negative to say about it."
"The ability to write our own code inside each activity is beneficial. Sometimes we need to create functionality that doesn't come out of the box, and this allows us to do that."
"The most valuable feature is the organizational modeling capability."
"Bizagi is a great tool for creating, testing, and documenting process diagrams."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"ADONIS needs improvement in its user interface functionality."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"Bizagi's UI should include shorter steps for documenting controls, documenting properties, changing some attributes in the object, and adding additional text."
"In business process mapping, you have pools and dark pools. I don't see that Bizagi differentiates between a regular pool and a dark pool."
"The open source version lacks the option to publish."
"The gateway through which it connects with other vendors, specifically RPA vendors, is one aspect that could be improved."
"It needs some better notation functionality."
"Bizagi doesn't have integrations with other solutions, such as ERP systems. In the industry and your company, you have a lot of systems with which you need to integrate, but Bizagi doesn't have such integrations, which makes it very difficult. Its scalability can also be improved. It is good for a startup, but when you need something more complex, it is not good."
"It would be helpful if they added some extra features in the next update."
"It would be useful if we can connect Bizagi to other solutions, such as a local financial solution or Power BI. It would also be good and helpful to be able to connect Bizagi to some services solutions. It should also support right-to-left languages, such as Arabic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product’s price is quite competitive."
"The product's pricing is medium, so I rate it a five out of ten."
"My company uses the free version of the product."
"It has a very high price. Many clients complain about the price for maintaining the application on Bizagi."
"Some solutions are completely free. One would be the business process diagramming tool, the server beneath it, and the automation tool. You don't need to pay to map the business process, but you would need to when you want to execute any of the commands. So, basically, they lure you in with a free ride, and when you want to scale the solution, you'll have to pay for it."
"I think that its price is reasonable."
"I'm trying the free unlimited version with unlimited use. But you have to pay to add some features."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
"Bizagi is totally free for modeling."
"Its price is reasonable."
