Julius Jagdon - PeerSpot reviewer
The tool is intuitive to use and, through automation, has been a real time-saver
When there are multiple steps or if there's a disconnect when creating the ticket, it could be a problem for the user. For example, our RSN needs to approve the ticket first before it's moved to the next person rather than having them all grouped. It would be better if we could see all the tickets grouped at the same time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most valuable features is you can create without coding, it is a low code platform."
"Process automation with Bonita BPM is really easy."
"The most valuable features of Bonita are the connectors, detailed documentation, and web applications. The documentation was useful because it is how I learned how to use it."
"The user interface is easy to use."
"I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features."
"Compared to other products on the market, Bonita presents a pretty acceptable level of robustness."
"The solution is stable. Even the older versions are stable."
"Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable."
"The support team responds fast."
"The best thing about KiSSFLOW is that we can do virtual approvals."
"Kissflow is intuitive and easy to use, and I haven't faced any errors using the solution so far."
"The flexibility and speed in modifying and creating processes are great features. If we have a process in mind, we can usually create it within ten minutes."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"I work in HR and am fond of automation. I like the tool's email automation and integration with Outlook."
"The best thing about Kissflow is its user-friendliness."

Cons

"Installation could be made easier."
"The main issue with Bonita is that the workspace crashes sometimes."
"It would be nice to have a wizard to help walk through the development process and create a backbone."
"There could be an improvement in IoT connectivity."
"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."
"Automation in vacation of a human resources replacement would be a good improvement in the product."
"There is a need for more components in the library and additional customization options for these components."
"It is missing some important features that other products have."
"They should increase their marketplace with existing tools so that connections are directly through connectors instead of API integrations."
"The integration between forms should be made easier."
"The UI, though is pretty friendly and easy to use, can be improved in some aspects."
"There is a lag in the delay between API calls."
"Some of the tool's fields only accept certain types of text. The input fields are inflexible."
"When there are multiple steps or if there's a disconnect when creating the ticket, it could be a problem for the user."
"KiSSFLOW needs to improve its integration."
"In future releases, it would be interesting to have a repository or portal within KiSSFLOW where users can interact with the KiSSFLOW community."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."
"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 price of the solution is reasonable."
"The Community Edition comes free of charge."
"have installed the image of Bonita BPM on Amazon AWS and there is just one option to use and pay for."
"The price is fair for what we are using the solution for."
"The product's pricing is acceptable. Pricing is yearly."
"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."
"The license is very expensive."
"Your company must subscribe to the solution if you create a business account."
"This is an affordable product and everything is included in the subscription."
"Kissflow's licensing cost is lower than other products. However, the contract has changed with the second version they have given us, which is the low-code one."
"The product costs $15 per user per month."
