Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Development of forms and flows.""Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable.""The user interface is better than all of the open-source BPMs that I have tried.""Process automation with Bonita BPM is really easy.""Bonita is simple and lightweight and is flexible to integrate with third-party systems. The UI is now flexible, whereas it was previously rigid. Any technology can be used as a frontend, including ReactJS, Angular, and others.""I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features.""The user interface is easy to use.""This product is very easy-to-use and user-friendly."

More Bonita Pros →

"The solution provides extensive functionalities.""We have more than 800 distinct applications in our IT landscape. We had enough scalability and okay development cycles, and it has been enough to cover our backup operations and order management systems.""What I found most valuable in Oracle BPM is that it has a lot of out-of-the-box integrations. The solution also provides a lot of adapters which is very helpful.""The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace.""It is easy and cheap.""The initial setup is straightforward.""Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes.""The support is good."

Cons
"There is a need for more components in the library and additional customization options for these components.""I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation.""Installation could be made easier.""There is a considerable learning curve.""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.""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.""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."

More Bonita Cons →

"Though Oracle BPM is a stable solution, it's very heavy, so this is one area for improvement. If Oracle can make the components of Oracle BPM lighter, and if the deployment for the solution could be easier, that would make Oracle BPM better.""There is room for improvement in the pricing structure.""It could have easier administration. It takes time to configure and deploy.""Every time we roll out a new version of processes, we have to migrate to a new process. The process of this migration was not very smooth. We later decided that it would be easier for us to stop all processes, deploy a new version and then restart.""You have to maintain it manually.""The time it takes to get from deployment to production could be faster.""The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems.""It would be good if they could provide some additional connectors or an application developer environment for microservices."
