Featured Reviews

Micah Rachuonyo - PeerSpot reviewer
Principal Standardization Officer at KEBS
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.
Jaideep MS - PeerSpot reviewer
Practice Director at a outsourcing company with 51-200 employees
A solution offering good automation capabilities while needing to improve its support and documentation
I think the solution's support could do a better job. I rate the support somewhere around four and five out of ten. There is a hoard of people that they get in touch with while contacting them. So we've done some work with them in the past. I mean, we've been a support partner for a while. But apart from that, in terms of understanding the issues for a particular technology, I think there is a lack of people at their end. So they don't really have many people with them. And by the time we could get hold of the right person, especially for production issues, it's a little too late.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It automates a completely manual, complicated process."
"The visualizations and attachments provided by the product are valuable."
"I like all of the features. I like that you can simulate the processes and add the time standard."
"What I find most valuable is the flexibility, I find it very easy to use and very flexible for my purpose. I can use it without any particular problem, and it's very intuitive and easy to understand."
"I find Bizagi so user friendly. I also think that its modeling abilities are great and it's easy to teach them to new users."
"It is open source."
"The tool helps to improve business processes and have better KPIs. Also, it is easy to use. Our developers find it easy to learn."
"Process management is easy with Bizagi; validating processes and assigning resources is straightforward."
"OpenText MBPM is a stable solution."
"Not just the solution's automation capabilities, but we like everything about it since we are more of a system integrator."
 

Cons

"It has slow performance."
"The solution was very limited."
"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."
"Bizagi needs a way to define categories such as process groups like the APQC framework, PCF, and handle the processes within it."
"For the small business, this is very bad because it is still fragmented."
"Yes, sometimes when we execute EXPRESSIONS Xpath, we don't always get the same result."
"The technical support could be better as it sometimes takes them too long to get back to us."
"Sometimes, when your process is big with multiple lanes, the product will freeze the issue noticed on multiple laptops, not a single PC."
"The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
"There are shortcomings in the solution's support and documentation part."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think that its price is reasonable."
"I was using the free version."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
"We use the free version of the solution because the price is in dollars, making it expensive for where we are in Brazil."
"It has a very high price. Many clients complain about the price for maintaining the application on Bizagi."
"Its price is reasonable."
"The product must improve its cost."
"The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cost-efficient, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing somewhere between nine and ten since it is a costly solution."
"There is an annual license to use OpenText MBPM."
