Featured Reviews

Marcus Quinn - PeerSpot reviewer
Chief Information Officer at Business Growth & Software Development Consultancy
Open source, stable and capable of working with existing Adobe files
Affinity Photo needs to work more. They need to align as much as possible with the shortcuts and keystrokes of Adobe. It's just because when you learn a tool as a professional, you tend to learn all the shortcuts and keystrokes. And if they're not the same as the same type of products that you migrated from, you lose productivity because you forget how to do things. You don't know where things are on the menu. You don't know the icon for it because you just know it as, "Oh, if I press this key, I get that." You forget the user interface. You just remember the keystrokes and the shortcuts. So, if that could align as much as possible with what I'm used to from Adobe, that would be good. And there's another product I use called Pixelmator Pro. And as much as I wish Affinity Photos did everything that Photoshop did, I actually ended up using this other product, Pixelmator, more for image editing because I just find it faster and more in line with what I remember from Photoshop. So, they are good. They've designed a good product. It's just the shortcuts and keystrokes need to match what people are used to, especially coming from Adobe because, let's say, it didn't exist. Affinity is a newer product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Affinity are the connection features it provides because you have a large database of startups. The people who worked in the companies and founded them are displayed in Affinity. It can show if they are using some special intelligence feature and that you may know this person, of your connections. For example, if they know the person. It works similar to the way LinkedIn does when you seek a connection. Additionally, Affinity shows how close this person is and how often they contact each other."
"We are using Affinity as a very robust contact list."
"I like that it's completely automated. It's a very robust system. You are not going to have faults in it."
"The most valuable features of Affinity are the connection features it provides because you have a large database of startups."
"For me, the most valuable feature is the fact that they work with existing Adobe files. And open and edit PDFs and web-optimized exports. It's been very good."
"It is a very scalable solution...The tool currently operates efficiently and contributes to our ongoing digitization efforts, including documentation and workflows."
"The CRM and collaboration tools are well-designed for our purposes. Your projects can be based on tasks, CRM, or opportunities. The task-based features are the most valuable for us right now."
"I am impressed with the solution's ability to customize workflows."
"The product is user-friendly."
"Collaboration and CRM are the most valuable features of Bitrix24."
"The data interpretation feature in Bitrix24 is good."
"It's a very easy-to-use product."
"What I like about this solution is that it is easy to use and very stable."
 

Cons

"It would be better if it were pay-per-user instead of pay-per-account."
"Affinity could improve by adding more features. It has been a while since I have used it, but when I did, the features could improve."
"To get people to migrate, Affinity needs to somehow give them an incentive to change. The key is to make it as similar as possible. Shortcuts and keystrokes would be my biggest learning curve. So, to scale, you're going to have to convince people to relearn their workflow, and everybody's too busy to do that. Scalability is kind of mid because you face adoption resistance if you're pushing out to a studio or staff that are used to Adobe. Many products don't think beyond Microsoft and Adobe. If it's not Microsoft, then they don't understand. So, scalability is a challenge."
"It would be better if it were "pay-per-user" instead of "pay-per-account." For example, I'm Siddharth Mallya, and I have two email accounts. Each of those accounts is a separate payable account for me. For instance, I have created a network using my personal email ID, and now I have moved to my company email ID. It'll choose any one of those accounts, and that will become my paid account. For example, if I put in my personal email ID, then that's the account that I pay for. But I'm no longer using it, and it's not going to get updated. If I put in my work email ID, then that's an entirely separate account that I have to pay for."
"We didn't have the ability to customize the solution."
"There are some bugs in the mobile system."
"Bitrix24’s interface needs to be improved."
"I would like to see improvements with Bitrix24's marketing automation."
"It would be great if colleagues could get alerts via email when they are assigned something."
"Some functionalities of the tool required specific expertise. For example, the SIP Connector is difficult to install."
"It's a team management tool, but the way the tasks are assigned and the way you are able to control them are lacking when compared to Asana or monday.com. The latter tools are a lot more adaptable to team management. Thus, better features to control the team are needed in Bitrix24."
"This solution was built using old technology which is now mixed with new technologies. This can make it challenging to get new features live."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Affinity is an expensive solution. However, they over a free version trial. The solution is expensive but the people that have used it say it is worth the money."
"Affinity follows a pay-per-account model, and I think there will be a monthly or a yearly paid subscription. I have heard that it was expensive."
"Bitrix24 used to be cheaper, but now it's getting expensive."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing a seven or eight out of ten."
"We were using the free version which was really limited in terms of functionality."
"The solution's pricing is quite average and not expensive."
"The product's pricing is okay for me. It is not expensive."
"I use the free version. I sense that my company will need a license for the solution in a few months to use some features like lead management."
"Bitrix24 offers an open-source option for small companies, but you can order a bigger range of services on a monthly or yearly contract."
"Bitrix24 is a cheap tool. I think our costs are somewhere between $1,000 and $5,000 per month. There are no additional costs with it. We did put in some hours to clean up some project-related stuff in it, but it was not much."

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Bitrix24?
The pricing for Bitrix24 is reasonable and standardized. However, we face limitations in Venezuela, where monthly invoicing isn't available, forcing us to pay annually.
What needs improvement with Bitrix24?
We need full ERP integration to take all our processes in one platform. Additionally, extracting data can be troublesome, as we have to use Russian APIs, which poses a security concern.
What advice do you have for others considering Bitrix24?
I would recommend Bitrix24 to others. Although we are moving to another solution, Bitrix24 offers impressive capabilities we haven’t utilized fully. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
