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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The main feature of Bizagi is the speed to which we can automate processes and how we can modify them without a strong impact on the end users."
"This is a free solution that allows us to create quality visualizations for our company."
"The natural notation is the best feature of Bizagi because it makes it compatible with other products."
"Your team can work on it having basic training about databases and BPM modeling."
"Great software for managing my business. I think this is the best business process management software."
"Its cost is the most valuable. It is not as expensive. It is also easy to make different types of processes for the users."
"It is open source."
"It can be useful as a tool to improve your communications and the control of your processes. For example, when you have to explain a process to seven or eight stakeholders who think differently as well as have different experiences in different functional departments, it is not easy. Sometimes you are using a lot of technical terms, and other times, you are dealing with management terminology. The visual representation helps you create a better alignment and understanding for different roles and stakeholders of your workforce."
"All the features come as part of a standard license."
"OpenText ProVision's best feature is the capability to attach a variety of attributes and extract and analyze that information."
"The stability of the product is very good."
 

Cons

"Bizagi needs a way to define categories such as process groups like the APQC framework, PCF, and handle the processes within it."
"The tool is expensive and it should improve its pricing."
"Bizagi allows for automation, but it's very complicated."
"In business process mapping, you have pools and dark pools. I don't see that Bizagi differentiates between a regular pool and a dark pool."
"I'm not really satisfied with the reporting aspect."
"The data in Excel that comes out after running the simulation is a bit complicated sometimes to interpret."
"In terms of what needs improvement, the costs can be lowered."
"It is expensive compared to other tools which I have in the market."
"Lacks the ability to have your own in-house developments."
"Integrating with or interfacing with other tools like data management tools would be very helpful."
"OpenText ProVision's collaboration management is quite complicated and difficult to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If they can freeze the pricing in a contract, I advise them to do so."
"Some solutions are completely free. One would be the business process diagramming tool, the server beneath it, and the automation tool. You don't need to pay to map the business process, but you would need to when you want to execute any of the commands. So, basically, they lure you in with a free ride, and when you want to scale the solution, you'll have to pay for it."
"The paid version costs us about $20,000 for 100 users annually."
"The modeler itself is free. For the whole BPM suite, there are other options that may be better."
"It is only necessary to pay for licenses when ready to deploy applications to production."
"We have no issues with the pricing."
"Its price is reasonable."
"This solution would be expensive for a company that has a lot of users."
