We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"Its user-friendliness, along with the availability of comprehensive and clear documentation on the website is the most valuable.""Bonita is user-friendly.""The solution is stable. Even the older versions are stable.""The solution is easy to use.""We use the tool to validate and give access to the users. It is for access management.""I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features.""This product is very easy-to-use and user-friendly.""The user interface is better than all of the open-source BPMs that I have tried."

Cons
"There is a considerable learning curve.""The main issue with Bonita is that the workspace crashes sometimes.""The interface is advanced and quite good, but it could improve.""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.""I have run into a lot of problems because there is not enough documentation.""It is missing some important features that other products have.""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.""There is a need for more components in the library and additional customization options for these components."

More Bonita Cons →

"In the next release, I would like to see REST improved and new technologies for microservices. I'd like to see more containers for separating containers.""Some user-defined functions for transformation must be added to the next release of the solution."
