Architect at Evoke

A simple and lightweight college course automation system with third-party integrations

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.

Business Tools at Motorola Solutions

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

"Bonita BPM is simple and fast; it is very easy to install and use."

"When there is heavy customization in the process Bonita is the best compare to other products in the market."

"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 Connector implementation is a great addition to an out-of-box solution providing robust features for the developer to build hassle-free integrations."

"Flexible and drag-and-drop type of UI is very valuable. The integrations are also very good. You can build workflows very quickly, which is my favorite activity. By using the GUI, you can build the entire mechanism, notifications, and all this kind of stuff."

"Bonitasoft helped us automate complicated and labor intensive processes"

"One of the most valuable features is you can create without coding, it is a low code platform."

"Bonita is user-friendly."

More Bonita pros

"My advice to anybody who is considering KiSSFLOW is that it is easy to use and I recommend it."

"The best thing about Kissflow is its user-friendliness."

"The most valuable feature is APIs. Its integrations are very flexible, allowing developers to connect multiple applications like DocuSign, Salesforce, OpenText, and SEB."

"The ease of use is great; the user interface is very, very good, and the creation of process forms is very simple while offering a good amount of detail that can be captured."

"I work in HR and am fond of automation. I like the tool's email automation and integration with Outlook."

"The best thing is the no-code part. Even a person without experience with the coding language can easily understand and build the processes."

"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."

"I like the forms which help us to get information."

More KiSSFLOW pros

Cons

"It is missing some important features that other products have."

"Installation could be made easier. I would like to see more automated processes."

"We are struggling a bit with integrations."

"The solution is stable. However, we have experienced a few bugs."

"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."

"We are struggling a bit with integrations."

"Scalability of the Bonita BPM Community version is low."

"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."

More Bonita cons

"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."

"Some of the tool's fields only accept certain types of text. The input fields are inflexible."

"They should increase their marketplace with existing tools so that connections are directly through connectors instead of API integrations."

"The UI, though is pretty friendly and easy to use, can be improved in some aspects."

"If Kissflow can help users to be able to organize the company manuals and information, the blogs, and everything into one resource, that would be awesome."

More KiSSFLOW cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The Community Edition comes free of charge."

"Price to service ratio with Bonita BPM is good."

"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."

"The price is fair for what we are using the solution for."

"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."

"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."

"have installed the image of Bonita BPM on Amazon AWS and there is just one option to use and pay for."

"You pay an annual fee and can have an unlimited number of processes and users."

More Bonita pricing and cost advice

"Your company must subscribe to the solution if you create a business account."

"The license is very expensive."

"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."
