Appy Pie
Based on my personal experience, this application is well-suited for noncoders who are busy setting up their businesses and since coders are expensive for the company in the initial days as in for startups, this application goes hand in hand and is quick and robust along with its amazing features like drag and drop and just the cloud storage facility.

The task mining component is well suited for processes where there are a lot of steps performed in a variety of systems, particularly by a single individual on a team. It also requires a robust activity ID to be able to track an activity. It is not well suited when trying to track a process where the content is in an email.

  • User interface. It is clean and easy to understand. You won't get overwhelmed the second you log in.
  • The workflow maker. With a drag and drop interface, you can easily visualize and implement what you want on the screen. Out of all the programs we tested, this one had the easiest process maker and designer.
  • Ease of understanding. My biggest recommendation would be that this program is easy to access for anyone. There are complications (see negatives) but this program can be implemented quickly and efficiently, and nearly anyone can learn to use it. You will not feel like you are in the dark with it.

Cons
Appy Pie
  • The application requires to be run on fast processing computers/laptops
  • This is a good application that isn't much known among non-coders, it needs to be marketed so that boosts this app developer to add more advanced features
  • It seems to have little bugs for the mobile app.

  • Complications when you get to the more advanced pieces. When trialing, I found that the more advanced a process got, the more complicated it got for me in coding. When you begin using the more advanced features, you will find that you need to have a basic knowledge of coding - otherwise you won't go any further. This was my sole issue. Unfortunately, it was one that would have brought the school to a grinding halt if they were to ever get more complicated than they were.

Usability

Like I said in previous questions, the no-code application has basic and easy features that are literally a no-brainer and even a person with zero knowledge of coding can do wonders with this as his/her tool. Apart from that, the application is cost-effective while time and money are two key things to be taken care of as a startup owner, this app came hand in hand with me

I gave this overall rating for ProcessMaker due to its overall flexibility, design and ease of use for most. Examples of this from us include it being an excellent and trustworthy tool for automating processes, the abilities and capabilities for real-time process tracking and the web-based accessibility and implementation which allows for easy access and management of the tool.

I have been using this for some time now and the website of the no-code application is all self-explanatory that is the reason I never have reached to the support team anytime, but before using this application I have gone through the reviews and read the positive response and I believe it has still gotten stronger since then.

Webflow has quite a lot of complexity in comparison to the no-code app which instead is user-friendly. There are more issues with application getting hung in between working but that isn't a bigger problem in the no-code app. Apart from that, the no-code app has blocks that can be used to edit/add/delete which are literally a no-brainer.

Before making the decision to get ProcessMaker, we assessed different and best options in the market, which are also quite competitive. KiSSFLOW, Blueworks Live, and Bizagi, being the most relevant and ADONIS, to mention the ones we consider the most relevant and capable of meeting our needs. In the end, we went for ProcessMaker because of mainly three things as described before: 1. Real-time process status tracking. 2. Metrics and dashboards. 3. Ease of use for constructing diagrams.

The capability is robust and quite industry agnostic. It would benefit significantly with some out of the box models - e.g. procure to pay on SAP and similar. They could also develop industry specific examples which could kickstart the implementation for organizations.

  • I'm using Communication edition to introduce BPMN in my organization. I can build the first process in a short time, make my boss more confident with my job.
  • But, with ProcessMaker, we need more time to design code to handle the process, and without PHP/Javascript Programmer, it seems hard to work with more and more processes online.
  • However, IE Browser is not well supported, somewhat let the user confuse.
