Featured Reviews

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.
Jaideep MS - PeerSpot reviewer
A solution offering good automation capabilities while needing to improve its support and documentation
I think the solution's support could do a better job. I rate the support somewhere around four and five out of ten. There is a hoard of people that they get in touch with while contacting them. So we've done some work with them in the past. I mean, we've been a support partner for a while. But apart from that, in terms of understanding the issues for a particular technology, I think there is a lack of people at their end. So they don't really have many people with them. And by the time we could get hold of the right person, especially for production issues, it's a little too late.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Kissflow has reduced the bottleneck around getting approval for certain items in the company."
"The best thing is the no-code part. Even a person without experience with the coding language can easily understand and build the processes."
"I like the forms which help us to get information."
"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."
"I work in HR and am fond of automation. I like the tool's email automation and integration with Outlook."
"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 best thing about KiSSFLOW is that we can do virtual approvals."
"Not just the solution's automation capabilities, but we like everything about it since we are more of a system integrator."
 

Cons

"There is a lag in the delay between API calls."
"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."
"KiSSFLOW needs to improve its integration."
"The integration between forms should be made easier."
"One area where I believe Kissflow can be improved is customization."
"The UI, though is pretty friendly and easy to use, can be improved in some aspects."
"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."
"There are shortcomings in the solution's support and documentation part."
"The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Your company must subscribe to the solution if you create a business account."
"The license is very expensive."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cost-efficient, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing somewhere between nine and ten since it is a costly solution."
"There is an annual license to use OpenText MBPM."
