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.

Process modeling and simulation features help optimize workflow efficiency
I have been generally satisfied with Bizagi because I'm quite satisfied with the free versions since I can model the process and simulate. It's not really good for process documentation because the diagram, when exported to pictures such as SVG or PNG files, the quality is not as good compared to Camunda. With Camunda, I can export in PNG or SVG, and the quality is good, especially if exported to Word or PDF or SharePoint. The process modeling feature in Bizagi has helped in designing workflows tailored to my business needs because it's good for process modeling, but I think it's not really user-friendly because the interface is quite complicated compared to Camunda. It's similar to Excel for process modeling, with many buttons, tabs, and menus. For process simulations, it has very good features, as I can calculate or simulate the logic, and then the cost and time with Bizagi. Bizagi is really helpful for us to justify a process improvement initiative because we can simulate a to-be process and see how much we can save time, save resources, and how a to-be or a new process can run in the correct logic based on BPMN modeling.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The support is fantastic and we have really good contact with them, it's very easy to use."
"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."
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"It's a very complete solution and user-friendly."
"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making."
"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."
"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."
"The user interface is pretty good."
"Bizagi has rich functionalities; compared to other BPMN tools, it has more features."
"I like the integration part, and I also like how they use the database, such as the data when they implement all the data side, and how you can easily integrate it with their widgets."
"This is a free solution that allows us to create quality visualizations for our company."
"With Bizagi automation, the process takes 10 minutes because we just have to click and fill in different fields."
"Bizagi is a valuable tool for us to model and automate business processes."
"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."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"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."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"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."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"Sometimes, when your process is big with multiple lanes, the product will freeze the issue noticed on multiple laptops, not a single PC."
"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."
"I would like to see a facility for building a simple CRUD application. In Bizagi, you can use database modeling, diagrams, forms, etc., but in some circumstances I need CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) functionalities which are not there yet."
"Cloud support for their process mapping tool could be better."
"Bizagi needs a way to define categories such as process groups like the APQC framework, PCF, and handle the processes within it."
"I would like to see more in terms of analytics and better reporting."
"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."
"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."
 

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."
"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."
"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."
"We use the free version of the solution because the price is in dollars, making it expensive for where we are in Brazil."
"The pricing model is good; I believe it's free for up to 20 users, and then they start charging. I hear the solution can get quite expensive, however."
"It is not expensive."
"I'm trying the free unlimited version with unlimited use. But you have to pay to add some features."
"It is expensive."
"We didn't use the licensed versions where you could exactly go into automatization. However, we looked at the pricing in the beginning, and the only thing that I remember is that it was too expensive for the things we were using because our clients would also have to license the product. One client said that it was too expensive for the benefit they get out of it."
