Enterprise Architect at a mining and metals company with 10,001+ employees
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.

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

"Very, very stable."
"The documentation capabilities are very good. Very structured documents and process versions are valuable features, and being able to communicate that to our customers is also a very good feature. It has a good balance between the effort and the result. So, you don't need to be too detailed. You can document while you are modeling, which is a very good feature."
"Bizagi has the capability to import-export with various modelling notations."
"The solution is very stable; we haven't found any bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash, making it quite reliable."
"Great software for managing my business. I think this is the best business process management software."
"It improves visibility and quality, and basically, it avoids human errors."
"Bizagi has rich functionalities; compared to other BPMN tools, it has more features."
"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."
"Not just the solution's automation capabilities, but we like everything about it since we are more of a system integrator."
"OpenText MBPM is a stable solution."
 

Cons

"It would be helpful if they added some extra features in the next update."
"We have migrated to the cloud, but there are a lot of issues while integrating with the cloud. There are a lot of things to improve with the cloud and reporting. We were previously working with on-premise solutions, and we had access to a lot of things, but with the cloud, they changed a lot of functionalities. Some of the things we know, but with some of the things, we are having difficulties."
"It's very difficult to contact support unless you pay for it."
"From a developer's point of view, an improvement in the layout would make the UI better."
"The open source version lacks the option to publish."
"Bizagi's UI should include shorter steps for documenting controls, documenting properties, changing some attributes in the object, and adding additional text."
"For the small business, this is very bad because it is still fragmented."
"This solution will work for certain purposes. I don't believe that it is capable of supporting an enterprise-level organization."
"There are shortcomings in the solution's support and documentation part."
"The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive."
"We have no issues with the pricing."
"I was using the free version."
"It is not expensive."
"The price could be lower."
"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."
"It is on par with other BPM tools, but not as expensive as Pega nor Appian."
"The Bizagi modeler can be downloaded free of charge."
"There is an annual license to use OpenText MBPM."
"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."

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Bizagi?
Bizagi's pricing is very aggressive, and it was one of the reasons we chose it. It was less expensive than some of the other tools.
