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 is user-friendly."
"Studio provides an opportunity to get early feedback from real users and quickly change the process and forms."
"Development of forms and flows."
"When there is heavy customization in the process Bonita is the best compare to other products in the market."
"It is more than helpful, it is worth the effort of learning to better our company."
"The Connector implementation is a great addition to an out-of-box solution providing robust features for the developer to build hassle-free integrations."
"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."
"The user interface is easy to use."
"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."
"Kissflow is intuitive and easy to use, and I haven't faced any errors using the solution so far."
"The most valuable feature is APIs. Its integrations are very flexible, allowing developers to connect multiple applications like DocuSign, Salesforce, OpenText, and SEB."
"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 that we can do virtual approvals."
"Kissflow has reduced the bottleneck around getting approval for certain items in the company."
"I like the forms which help us to get information."
 

Cons

"The documentation and examples definitely could be enhanced."
"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."
"So Bonita is easy to use but it seems to be missing some powerful features that competing products have."
"Installation could be made easier. I would like to see more automated processes."
"The dashboard has limited features."
"The initial setup is not easy compared to other products."
"Automation in vacation of a human resources replacement would be a good improvement in the product."
"The interface is advanced and quite good, but it could improve."
"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."
"The integration between forms should be made easier."
"They should increase their marketplace with existing tools so that connections are directly through connectors instead of API integrations."
"One area where I believe Kissflow can be improved is customization."
"Some of the tool's fields only accept certain types of text. The input fields are inflexible."
"In future releases, it would be interesting to have a repository or portal within KiSSFLOW where users can interact with the KiSSFLOW community."
"There is a lag in the delay between API calls."
"When there are multiple steps or if there's a disconnect when creating the ticket, it could be a problem for the user."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"have installed the image of Bonita BPM on Amazon AWS and there is just one option to use and pay for."
"The Enterprise edition is very expensive."
"We are using the Community Version, which can be used free of charge."
"I believe this is a very good financial choice."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"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 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 price is fair for what we are using the solution for."
"The product costs $15 per user per month."
"This is an affordable product and everything is included in the subscription."
"The license is very expensive."
"Your company must subscribe to the solution if you create a business account."
"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."
