We performed a comparison between Bizagi, QPR ProcessDesigner, and Visio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Camunda, Sparx Systems and others in Business Process Design."The interface, design, and accessible user manuals to help get started using the solution are valuable features in Bizagi."
"Process management is easy with Bizagi; validating processes and assigning resources is straightforward."
"Your team can work on it having basic training about databases and BPM modeling."
"I like that Bizagi is fully compatible with BPMN 2.0. It also eases the way in which we work with BPMN 2.0 itself, which is a comprehensive and rather complex notation standard."
"The free online Help and E-Learning is very strong."
"The user logic is very easy to understand, even for people who are not engineers nor developers."
"The amount of control that this solution provides is great."
"The product allowed users to connect with flow chart elements with ease."
"It makes communication easier due to transparency on processes."
"Processes become clearer, easier to understand, and easier to spot in development areas."
"The fact that it's on-premises allows you to get fantastic speed. It's got a faster response rate, it doesn't lag, and it doesn't have any latency when you're working on it."
"The interface is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"Great at illustrating advanced topics which helps my team understand what I'm trying to get across."
"The tools tab within Visio has been amazingly useful, and it is updated quite frequently. Along with how Visio handles components and everything else, I would call it an easy-to-use tool."
"It is very easy for people to start using this tool, and we can import Visio templates that are already published by vendors such as Azure without any issue."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"I find the control flow and settings features valuable."
"The ability to visualize a workflow is certainly an advantage over just tracking a process in something like Excel."
"The tool is expensive and it should improve its pricing."
"I would like to see simulation as a free feature again. In version 3.3 it was free, but in 4.0 it isn't."
"I would like to see more in terms of analytics and better reporting."
"I'm not really satisfied with the reporting aspect."
"The solution was very limited."
"Bizagi's UI should include shorter steps for documenting controls, documenting properties, changing some attributes in the object, and adding additional text."
"It needs some better notation functionality."
"In business process mapping, you have pools and dark pools. I don't see that Bizagi differentiates between a regular pool and a dark pool."
"There is definitely a need to produce models in XML. There is already something available, but it seems that transferring between the different modelling tools is difficult."
"From my perspective, Visio could probably add more help guidelines for users, and I would prefer to see more intuitive user interfaces to help with dragging and dropping, using the right components, etc."
"The solution's flexibility can be perceived as both a strength and a weakness."
"One issue I've noticed is that when working on a shared video link with a friend for Visio, there can be a delay in changes reflecting on their screen after I've made them. This also occurs when we're working on the same document. It would be beneficial if changes could be reflected in real-time. Additionally, I've experienced some text size issues with the flow task feature. Sometimes when I enter text, it appears very small, and increasing the size causes it to extend beyond the diagram, creating formatting issues. It would be helpful if these text and formatting issues could be addressed."
"The one particular thing which I would like to see improved is in comparison to other products in the market, and is still lacking in Visio, is publishing on a web application. For example, there is a freeware application business process modeling tool, Bizagi."
"They have to improve shapes. It has good shapes, but it certainly can have more shapes. There are no U shapes. It also requires more customizations. There are a lot of icons, but they can be modernized more. These icons have to be more customizable so that we are able to change the color and things like that. It should also have more integration so that we can use it with other tools on the web. We don't use Microsoft Teams. We use Discord, which is more for gamers. It would be helpful if Visio is integrated with Discord. I can then show my work to my team. We use Visio, and it is a must-have solution for us, but being a startup, we don't have the money to use the whole Microsoft system. Some day we will use Office. For companies like us, there should be connectors for other software. We should be able to use a connector with the software that we are using or with the new generation solutions. Connectors will make it very easy to transfer data."
"I would like to see Visio become some kind of enterprise architecture, which it is not."
"I would like to be able to present diagrams in multiple ways, such as a Swimlane diagram."
"The simulation is an area that requires improvement."
