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'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."
"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."
"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 seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"The support is fantastic and we have really good contact with them, it's very easy to use."
"This is a good solution for consulting firms and universities and is one of the best systems for analytics of business processes."
"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."
"It improves visibility and quality, and basically, it avoids human errors."
"I like that Bizagi is fully compatible with BPMN 2.0. It also eases the way in which we work with BPMN 2.0 itself, which is a comprehensive and rather complex notation standard."
"Business process modelling and simulation."
"The ability to document the entire process within the same diagram and then generate documents in Word, publish on the web for transparency, and perform model simulations has become extremely useful for developing system processes and activity diagrams for technology developers in any area."
"The natural notation is the best feature of Bizagi because it makes it compatible with other products."
"Bizagi is a good solution."
"It has an easy to use interface which final users accepted with much more enthusiasm than our ERP (SAP)."
 

Cons

"This solution would be more scalable for our business if we could make certain changes, including adding the Russian language."
"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."
"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."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"ADONIS needs improvement in its user interface functionality."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"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."
"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."
"The speed of this solution needs to be improved."
"Difficult to export in formats other than PDF."
"Cloud support for their process mapping tool could be better. To map all your processes in any way and call your data, you need to download their on-premise setup or their desktop setup. Cloud support for process mapping is limited, and they should work on that."
"The free version could be better. Some of the templates and all the functionalities aren't available in the free version. I've been trying to check some maps, for example, organizational maps or a model on organization hierarchy. Apparently, there seems to be no template. You have to create your own. I am not sure if there are templates, but I've not really seen any. I think that there's room for improvement."
"The solution's interface could be a bit more user-friendly and I would like to see more integrations with other Office products, not just Office 365."
"One part of the university has changed its regular desktops to Linux. This is a weak point because Bizagi doesn't run on Linux. I would like the opportunity to run the software inside of Linux."
 

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."
"We use the free version of the solution because the price is in dollars, making it expensive for where we are in Brazil."
"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."
"This is a free solution."
"It is expensive."
"I was using the free version."
"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 on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."
"It has a very high price. Many clients complain about the price for maintaining the application on Bizagi."
