Pros

It is for access management.""Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable.""The most valuable features of Bonita are the connectors, detailed documentation, and web applications.

Cons
"There could be an improvement in IoT connectivity.""There is a need for more components in the library and additional customization options for these components.""The interface is advanced and quite good, but it could improve.""The dashboard has limited features.""The community edition has limited module functionality. If they could release some of the functionality that's available in the enterprise edition that would be helpful to those learning to use the solution.""Bonita can improve by offering more flexibility. The developer does not receive the code of the application to modify it. Most of the other solutions I have used allow the developers to change or improve the code that is generated.""We are struggling a bit with integrations.""It would be nice to have a wizard to help walk through the development process and create a backbone."

More Bonita Cons →

"The service as it currently stands is out-of-date and lacks flexibility.""​The place of improvement is merging or combining all of the workflow functionality into one seamless tool. Now, there are multiple installations that are different. Case Foundation, before you can put Case Manager and you've got IBM BPM, and the roadmap is there to merge them altogether. But that's the struggle at the moment, it's having multiple installations and disparate workflow applications.​""There is a need for more open and flexible integration capabilities, allowing seamless collaboration with a broader spectrum of business process management solutions, beyond the confines of IBM's document management offerings.""Once a workflow is launched then it stays static forever, which is a problem because if there is a change in the business then you cannot change the workflow.""The solution can be quite expensive.""The interface needs to be more user-friendly.""90% of the feedback we receive states that the UI is not very user-friendly.""We are now using microservices but there are some areas where the coordination with FileNet is problematic."
