There is no direct scalability option.

If it is flexible and includes premium connectors, scalability is easy.
It is quite scalable, though there are some limitations regarding the number of records.

Room For Improvement

Bizagi needs performance improvements, better cloud integration, intuitive design, and enhanced support, with high costs and limited Linux compatibility.
Microsoft Power Apps struggles with integration, user experience, high costs, licensing, and limitations in data handling and customization.
Studio Creatio needs better mobile customization, UI control, business rule flexibility, accurate translations, technical documentation, and improved performance for large processes.
Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased.
For more mature environments, the integration to live systems is lacking, which affects its applicability.
The decision map could be improved to allow more than three options at a decision point.
This would assist business process users who lack coding knowledge.
These tools should be intuitive for business users who will need at least a week of training to use them effectively.
In many use cases, applications might require importing data exceeding two thousand records, potentially reaching one hundred thousand.
 

Setup Cost

Enterprise users find Bizagi's pricing mixed, valuing flexibility yet desiring a mid-range option between free and enterprise.
Microsoft Power Apps provides flexible pricing with discounts, offering cost-effective solutions with options from free to premium features.
Studio Creatio offers a flexible and reasonably priced licensing model, costing $15 per user per month, rated 5-6 in affordability.
Bizagi's pricing is very aggressive, and it was one of the reasons we chose it.
For small to medium enterprises, it is affordable, especially with Microsoft Enterprise licensing.
For more elaborate work, an upgrade to an enterprise license, costing around $35 per license, is needed.
It is in the middle range and considered reasonable given the current price.
 

Valuable Features

Bizagi offers a user-friendly, low-code platform with strong automation, integration capabilities, and BPMN 2.0 compliance, enhancing workflow efficiency.
Microsoft Power Apps enables rapid, accessible app creation with seamless integration and customization, supporting both technical and non-technical users.
Studio Creatio provides configurable CRM, low-code/no-code platforms, and process management with automation, scalability, and superb business support features.
It is open source.
The user interface is very good, making it easy for business people to understand.
Bizagi has rich functionalities; compared to other BPMN tools, it has more features.
It integrates seamlessly with Power Automate for process automation and connects with email, SharePoint, Power BI, and MS Teams, facilitating everyday processes.
Canvas Apps provide complete user design flexibility with many connectors to integrate into Microsoft Power Apps, making it efficient to fetch and update information from various data sources such as Dataverse, Excel, SharePoint, and Azure.
I run a couple of SQL Servers, which are premium connectors in Microsoft Power Apps, and that requires a different licensing model than what a standard E5 license covers.

Featured Reviews

Paparao Nadipineni - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables budget review efficiency with open source advantages and workflow orchestration
Definitely, right now, it is purely open source, and we don't have much community support. If they add a few more capabilities like AIML and DocGen AI, these features would be good. Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased. Otherwise, people cannot onboard that particular technology easily.
Guhan Eshwar - PeerSpot reviewer
Building tools with user-friendly interfaces abut needs integration improvements
An integration of Copilot options within Microsoft Power Apps would be useful. In UiPath apps, there is an autopilot function that uses a generative AI model, which creates layouts and connects data services automatically with a prompt. Such integration would be beneficial to build basic frameworks that can be enhanced. This would assist business process users who lack coding knowledge.
Anatolii Vovniuk - PeerSpot reviewer
Customizable, easy to use, and has good built-in dashboards
The tool is available on the cloud as well as on-premise. The ease of setup depends on the complexity of the project. In most cases, we just connect and work. We must create our own team and find a partner to build our own application. If we need to create something new, it will take time. I rate the ease of setup of the cloud version a ten out of ten. However, I would rate the ease of setup of the on-premise version a five or six out of ten. The on-premise version takes longer to deploy. The cloud version can be deployed within minutes. We receive a license key and start working. If all the components are ready, we can deploy the on-premise version within ten days.
