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.

Supports long-running asynchronous processes effectively but has not evolved much in recent years
I think Camunda is focusing too much on the SaaS offering right now and not much on improving and developing the product itself. I did not see any innovations on that aspect, especially for the open-source version. I was making some tests recently and the tool seemed pretty much the same as it was three or four years ago. Since they made the move to cloud deployment in a more SaaS-oriented way, they do not invest too much in the community version. To be honest, it did not change much from the Activiti initial version. Activiti was pretty much what Camunda is today. They invested a lot on Zeebe and made it the engine for their SaaS cloud version. Camunda itself, the embedded engine, did not evolve too much. They could invest more on that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"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 seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"It's a very complete solution."
"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 best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"Very user friendly and a professional solution."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the process modeling part and process simulation."
"I like all of the features. I like that you can simulate the processes and add the time standard."
"What I like about Bizagi is you just add data, you say this user is using this in the flow chart, and then you add some forms."
"My favorite part about Bizagi is that I think it has nice UI; it is a comfortable environment for users."
"Bizagi is a very useful tool because it does not require you to program. The user logic is very easy to understand even for people who are not engineers or developers."
"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."
"The basic mapping feature is key for me; it's fantastic, it's easy to use and it's free."
"The architectural part of Camunda for workflow design is highly valuable, especially the Camunda Modeler, which allows quick process design and implementation."
"The most valuable features are the workflow, the task list, and the modeler where we use VPN."
"Having knowledge of the BPM and monitoring process has proven to be very beneficial, as I am currently engaged in documenting processes for Clientele."
"The way to create workflows is straightforward, which is one of the major benefits of the Camunda platform."
"The solution is good for data models."
"We can share, discuss, and develop the model together — from a distance. It's really helped us during these times of isolation."
"I love that Camunda is a very developer-friendly platform, and my customers have evaluated the pricing as reasonable."
"Camunda serves as an automation library and provides lightweight deployment to the cloud."
 

Cons

"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Sometimes it requests me to update Bizagi and it takes some time working on it."
"The data in Excel that comes out after running the simulation is a bit complicated sometimes to interpret."
"One of the features which could be improved is machine learning."
"I think if they could go back to the modeling option or the simulation, that would be good. They also used to have a publish option but they closed that and it's now only available with the pay option."
"They should improve the migration process between major versions, from version 9 to 10, we had to redo our implementation."
"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 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."
"It lacks some preset features and configurations which would make it more plug-and-play for customers."
"The support offered by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The setup process is a drawback as it has many dependencies, which affects our ability to migrate to Windows eleven due to security concerns."
"Process interfaces between diagrams could be improved."
"If there were some industry templates it would have helped significantly, because it is similar to a process map for a domain."
"When trying to design rule tables the solutions graphical user interface could improve, it could be more user friendly."
"Documentation can be improved. Right now, the documentation isn't properly organized."
"Without a proper frontend, the business cannot effectively use the platform."
 

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."
"The modeling part of the software is free. Most of the time, it is used for this purpose."
"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."
"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."
"Pricing is good value for money."
"Its price is reasonable."
"The product must improve its cost."
"It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."
"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."
"When compared with the proprietary products, the pricing costs are much less, even though it is an enterprise edition."
"Camunda's pricing is good."
"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"Cheaper licensing and resources than competitors"
"The license is quite expensive, which is why we went with the community version."
"We're using the open-source version for now."
"The price is competitive with products like Bonitasoft and RHPAM (Red Hat Process Automation Manager). We have two versions of Camunda. The first version was open source, without support, but then we got a supported version."
