Abasiakama Bassey - PeerSpot reviewer
A project management tool that offers great scalability and stability
The support provided by Bitrix24 is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement. From an improvement perspective, Bitrix24 should consider providing live and upfront support to its users, especially those who use the solution's free version. If you want someone to get on your platform for which you can't provide support, then it doesn't make that platform any different from its competitors. It would make sense to people if Bitrix24 could provide support for even their free version. It would be good if Bitrix24 added some accounting elements to the tool instead of just providing functionality related to bookkeeping alone since it can help Bitrix24 become a complete tool. During the setup phase of the solution, the tool should provide its users an option to add the accounting part, making it a complete solution.
Srinivas Ganisetti - PeerSpot reviewer
Case management feature is valuable but the pricing is expensive
I would like to suggest the solution but it really depends on your specific requirements, your business use cases and future plans. There is a significant investment involved in this solution and therefore it is very crucial to reevaluate your future necessity including automation potential and modernization plans. I would suggest that you select any kind of solution and explore alternatives of similar functionalities at a lower cost. This might help you to achieve more with less. In my experience, I would rate it between seven to eight because it offers robust capabilities. But please be aware that other BPM tools are emerging with similar features at a lower cost. Pega CRM is perceived as bulk care compared to order tools, as many of its capabilities are potentially underutilized. I would rate it 7 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support was intuitive and had good documentation."
"Offers, a free version."
"We are considering Bitrix24 as an office automation solution for our workplace productivity-related issues, project management activities, and staff tracking."
"It is easy to use and very stable."
"Bitrix24 is a user-friendly solution that is easy to use."
"The data interpretation feature in Bitrix24 is good."
"I believe that having one system that handles all of the functions that we need in a business, such as marketing, sales, pipeline management, project management, meetings, customer contact, customer feedback, social media integrations, and connections to our cloud data storage, Google, and Microsoft, is a good idea."
"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."
"The case management feature is really valuable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pull information about the customer on-the-fly so they feel the interaction is more personal."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"It also reduces the duration per call, and it ensures a first time resolution of the issue."
"The product's deployment phase was easy."
"Pega offers a clear parent-child case relationship that's easily created and maintained. Dependencies can be configured, where reaching a specific stage in a parent case automatically triggers a child task in a child case, while the parent case remains on hold until a certain condition is met before moving forward. This configuration allows multiple users to work on cases in parallel. Many of these settings are readily available within Pega case settings. Overall, Pega's case management is unparalleled compared to other options."
"One of the most valuable features of Pega CRM for our team's productivity is its ease of setup, thanks to its configuration-driven approach."
"We can effortlessly manage the data within it, and it offers ease of use and high flexibility to present the data across various vendors."
 

Cons

"The solution’s performance could be made faster."
"Bitrix24’s interface needs to be improved."
"Compared to Microsoft, we found Bitrix24 a little complex because it's new to us, and we don't understand it much."
"Our financial department does not use Bitrix24 because it's not good for the sort of work they do. So, once we create an invoice in Bitrix24, we sent it to the client and the financial department and they enter it separately into their system. This is not great for us since we can't track what happens after a sale."
"It would be great if colleagues could get alerts via email when they are assigned something."
"There are some bugs in the mobile system."
"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."
"There is a need for better integration with ERP solutions."
"The disadvantage of the tool stems from the fact that it does not allow users to make database-level modifications."
"Price is always a concern for many organizations. They often think Pega is expensive, and sometimes they don't fully understand the pricing model."
"There has been a common acknowledgment among customers that this solution is an expensive tool and they often opt for cheaper tools like Comodo"
"The UI is lagging and needs to be improved."
"For many of the clients, they have a separate system or separate layer of UI and a separate layer of the business rules engine, which Pega has taken care of in the recent releases."
"The UI should be improved."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the pricing and support implementation options as they are currently quite expensive."
"The solution has room for improvement around decisional and real-time data analysis."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Bitrix24 offers an open-source option for small companies, but you can order a bigger range of services on a monthly or yearly contract."
"The cost is $2,500, which will be spread out over 18 to 24 months."
"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."
"The pricing for this program is reasonable."
"The product's pricing is okay for me. It is not expensive."
"Licenses are cheap compared to other solutions."
"We were using the free version which was really limited in terms of functionality."
"Price-wise, it is a very cheap solution."
"We have numerous uses of the solution in our organisation. Almost 72 applications are integrated with Pega CRM, and some of them are shutting down for various reasons including the high licensing costs. There is a strong focus in the market and offices on cost reduction."
"It is expensive."
"The pricing is on the higher side."
