We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The user interface is easy to use.""I find process management and user interface designing the most valuable features.""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.""Compared to other products on the market, Bonita presents a pretty acceptable level of robustness.""Bonita is user-friendly.""I really enjoy using the workflow management.""Development of forms and flows."

More Bonita Pros →

"The scheduling and the calendar are very useful.""It is the best product because of its stability. ActiveMatrix 5.x is highly stable in production, and the downtime is very low. I have worked on a lot of service projects, and the engine is very stable, robust, and scalable. The development and change requests can be pushed quickly, and the mapper activity and SSLT kind of features are also good. It is easy to do changes, testing, and deployment. Its deployment is very easy, and we can automate a lot of scripts for our on-premises solution. I work for an investment bank, and we have automated a lot of processes for our customers. Previously, we used to develop scripts and tools. With version 6.x, everything is moved to Maven and other things. Environment handling is done mostly through DevOps tools. As compared to Mulesoft, the deployment and configuration are very easy in TIBCO.""For specific situations this can be a good solution and a simplified interface to work with.""The product's initial setup phase is straightforward.""The capacity for distributing the jobs in a workflow is an important feature."

Cons
"There could be an improvement in IoT connectivity.""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.""The dashboard has limited features.""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.""I would like to improve the product's load balancing.""Bonita can improve by offering more flexibility. The developer does not receive the code of the application to modify it. Most of the other solutions I have used allow the developers to change or improve the code that is generated.""There is a considerable learning curve.""We are struggling a bit with integrations."

More Bonita Cons →

"The product is missing some means of addressing more complex BPM constructs and should interface with more platforms easily.""The scalability of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The maintenance of the package could be improved.""ActiveMatrix is in the middle field. MuleDB is more on the engineering side with Java and other things. SnapLogic is there are on the higher side with very low coding. TIBCO stays in the middle like IBM or Oracle. TIBCO can move towards IBM's way of doing. IBM has a big market and many varieties of products and good integration, which TIBCO doesn't have. It can have better integration. TIBCO's transition to the cloud is a little slow. As compared to Dell, Boomi, and Mulesoft. TIBCO took the steps a little later. TIBCO's ID was far better and easier to work with previously. TIBCO's 5.x ID was very good, and the development environment and the transition were easy. Version 6.5 onwards, it is a stable product, but it would be good if they can do something similar to version 5.4 with version 6. They should concentrate on this API market. It will give them the strength and the ability to grab the market back.""Technical support needs to be streamlined."
