Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a great product that is powerful in developing applications.""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.""The most valuable features of Bonita are the connectors, detailed documentation, and web applications. The documentation was useful because it is how I learned how to use it.""I really enjoy using the workflow management.""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.""Development of forms and flows.""Process automation with Bonita BPM is really easy.""The solution is easy to use."

"The Vizio-style designer that runs in the browser is, to me, by far the most valuable feature of the solution. It means that the customer doesn’t have to install any client tools to create powerful workflows.""The solution offers very good integration capabilities. We've never had issues integrating it without solutions.""The setup is easy.""The SharePoint feature is a really good connection, there are many features that are good.""It can scale well.""The technical support is very good.""It creates workflows to handle business processes. It allows us to route approvals to users without human intervention.""It's easy to configure your set of rules to make the form controls work perfectly, removing manual work and making processes seamless."

Cons
"Bonita must add a rule engine. We are a 360-degree partner of Bonita. We can integrate with any kind of rule engine. We have a dashboard related to engine performance, but getting a configurable dashboard for the Buildium or transactional data will add value.""It is missing some important features that other products have.""We are struggling a bit with integrations.""There is a considerable learning curve.""The interface is advanced and quite good, but it could improve.""There is a need for more components in the library and additional customization options for these components.""I would like to improve the product's load balancing.""I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation."

More Bonita Cons →

"Currently, it's taking quite some time to deploy a package, it needs improvement""Converting a document from PDF to MS Word, or vice versa, needs to be improved.""The licensing needs to be improved. Right now, we find it's getting more expensive to use the product.""There have been some glitches, and the workflow fails frequently.""Currently, a notable challenge lies in the alignment of user experiences across the eight or nine applications within the suite. Transitioning between applications can be somewhat cumbersome due to varying user interfaces. However, the provider is actively addressing this concern by consistently rolling out updates every four to five months, aimed at harmonizing and streamlining the interfaces. This ongoing effort is expected to enhance the user experience over time. In terms of functionality and features, the platform stands out, offering flexibility with the option for both on-premises and cloud deployment. This flexibility extends to the RPA tool, providing clients with choices tailored to their preferences. An advantage lies in the shared security and data infrastructure across the toolset, facilitating smooth data transfer between applications. This contrasts with experiences with Oracle, where data transfer may involve complexities such as the need for intermediary file formats like TXL or SCZ.""We are currently facing a lot of issues with Nintex, and we are trying to move away from this solution.""We'd like to have integration with SharePoint.""The solution needs more RPA and AI features."

  • More Bonita Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Nintex products are expensive, but valuable. Licensing in on-premise was historically based on a perpetual model, where you’d license per Web front-end. However, they are switching exclusively to a consumption (subscription) model, where you purchase the number of workflows you think you’ll use in your environment, and can scale up from there."
  • "Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."
  • "Our maintenance costs are reduced."
  • "The annual support costs are expensive."
  • "Comparatively, it's expensive."
  • "We pay on a yearly basis. It's my understanding that we pay approximately $11,000/year."
  • "The initial investment in K2 is heavy. Currently, the expenditure is $28,000 for a year. After we go to the cloud, it is going to be per seat and probably cheaper. Currently, there are unlimited users."
  • "There is an initial fee when purchasing and a fee for maintenance afterward."
