The initial setup is straightforward and can be completed with the environment within an hour. First, take the latest from the git repository and check the git code to the monitor studio and a bar file, a deployable Bonita archive file. Then, take that process to the Bonita server, running at runtime on another server. Finally, deploy and enable it by selecting the proper organization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest benefit of using the product is identifying the issues, enabling a more flexible working method."
"Bonita BPM is simple and fast; it is very easy to install and use."
"Customer Service: Very good, also the commercial team !Technical Support: Perfect ! and the community is a great help also"
"Of the three BPM vendors I evaluated, Bonita was the best in creating forms, ease of customization of forms, and versatility of supported platforms, and it is the only BPM platform that I've seen so far that allows for versioning of artifacts."
"Studio provides an opportunity to get early feedback from real users and quickly change the process and forms."
"I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features."
"Development of forms and flows."
"It is a great product that is powerful in developing applications."
"We use the tool to validate and give access to the users. It is for access management."
 

Cons

"The platform's initial setup process could be better."
"The price is good, but I do not like the process instance annual quantity pricing base used today."
"The initial setup is not easy compared to other products."
"I would like to improve the product's load balancing."
"The documentation and examples definitely could be enhanced."
"BPMN 2.0 notations are not all supported, would love to see them all coming in (e.g. complex gateway)."
"Bonita must add a rule engine. We are a 360-degree partner of Bonita. We can integrate with any kind of rule engine. We have a dashboard related to engine performance, but getting a configurable dashboard for the Buildium or transactional data will add value."
"The menus likely would be more intuitive if read in French. Things seem to be under strange headings at times."
"I should be able to park the tasks that are within a process in a kind of container, and dynamically, a super admin should be able to connect these processes. This kind of feature might be helpful."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Licensing cost for the Enterprise edition comes out to be around 40,000 a year. There is also a Community edition, which is free. Some customers can go for the Community edition, but some of them require the Enterprise edition. Big companies go for the Enterprise edition, which comes with a lot of additional features such as a mobile app."
"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"Price to service ratio with Bonita BPM is good."
"I am using the free version of Bonita."
"The product is not cheaper, not costlier; it is reasonable. Bonita’s license is very flexible, with options to meet the needs of different customers and clients. Previously, it was less flexible, but now, many different licensing options are available."
"I believe this is a very good financial choice."
"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
