Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Studio provides an opportunity to get early feedback from real users and quickly change the process and forms."
"Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable."
"Development of forms and flows."
"I think Bizagi is a powerful software or tool for organization, but Bonita is user-friendly and easy-to-use — easier to use for development."
"The user interface is better than all of the open-source BPMs that I have tried."
"Customer Service: Very good, also the commercial team !Technical Support: Perfect ! and the community is a great help also"
"I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features."
"This product is very easy-to-use and user-friendly."
"We had great service directly from QPR."
"It makes communication easier due to transparency on processes."
"​Processes become clearer, easier to understand, and easier to spot in development areas."
 

Cons

"We are struggling a bit with integrations."
"There could be an improvement in IoT connectivity."
"That said, creating custom connectors for 3rd party applications and APIs is still a challenging task."
"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."
"It would be nice to have a wizard to help walk through the development process and create a backbone."
"There is a need for more components in the library and additional customization options for these components."
"Installation could be made easier. I would like to see more automated processes."
"The solution is stable. However, we have experienced a few bugs."
"There is definitely a need to produce models in XML. There is already something available, but it seems that transferring between the different modelling tools is difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
"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."
"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."
"I am using the free version of Bonita."
"The price is fair for what we are using the solution for."
"The Community Edition comes free of charge."
"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."
"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
