Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is easy to use.""Development of forms and flows.""Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable.""This product is very easy-to-use and user-friendly.""One of the most valuable features is you can create without coding, it is a low code platform.""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.""Compared to other products on the market, Bonita presents a pretty acceptable level of robustness.""We use the tool to validate and give access to the users. It is for access management."

"It provides possibilities for us to save documents and supporting the business process while doing so.""The most valuable feature of OpenText Documentum is the versioning.""We like Documentum for its capacity and reliability.""I appreciate Documentum's scalability, allowing for vast volumes of content storage.""The most valuable feature is that it's a central repository for everything, whether it's videos, documents, Excel sheets, etc.""It has reduced the amount of paper documents; reducing time and errors in the process.""It is a very secure system. It is reliable, and that is one of the reasons people manage their content within Documentum. It gives them the confidence that the content is accessible to the right people and not to the wrong people.""Two things are excellent in Documentum. One is business process management. The other is its support for metadata."

Cons
"I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation.""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.""Installation could be made easier.""We are struggling a bit with integrations.""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.""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.""There could be an improvement in IoT connectivity."

More Bonita Cons →

"An area that needs to improve is how to reduce storage space on the AWS site.""Sometimes DocBroker cannot see the DocBase.""We mostly use the Life Sciences package. That package is somewhat dated. There should be enhancements to the Life Science package and additional offerings to support pharma in particular.""It's difficult to manage and customize Documentum.""In BPM could be better. Its GUI needs the ability to build more rules. This is a crucial feature. For example, OpenText has some products that allow you to control your checks, invoices, and so on. They have exciting approaches to converting pictures to text, but the tool for business process management isn't easy to use. The GIU is not so good.""The user interface can be a bit more intuitive.""They should develop something so that bugs don't happen in our project. We make changes manually and some bugs happen.""I would like to see performance improvements, especially regarding slow response times."
