Bonita Platform vs. FAB Builder

Well suited for low code/no code applications centered around approval flows. It has built-in task management for users to see their pending actions, comments, statuses, etc. It has a very nice design for process flows. Less appropriate may be for generic type applications with complex screens and logic within those screens that need a lot of data to process.

While working on a big project, FAB Builder helps me generate code for mobile, frontend, and backend development using MongoDB, Node.js, React, and React Native. It also offers numerous functionalities that significantly increase my productivity, making it an indispensable tool for efficient and effective app development. Although it's a very helpful software I would really like to have a drag and drop functionality of Ui components, which will improve my experience in user friendly application.

• Bonita seems particularly suited for processes requiring a great deal of human interaction. Its user model allows you to control access to business processes in a fine-grained way. This allows for business processes to move smoothly between users and services as the process advances.
• The definition and usage of custom forms from the latest version of Bonita seems particularly powerful. It allows for a thorough customization of the look-and-feel and does not require complex developments.
• The web interface and administration section have greatly improved in the latest versions. Installation and configuration of processes has become more flexible and more structured. The administration section gives a good view on failed processes, allowing to analyse problems in an efficient way.

• There is a learning curve beyond the boot camps that needs to be addressed with more structured curriculum.
• The full stack technologies are industry standard, but these [are] challenging to learn and could use a learning path and orientation. There's probably opportunity for third-parties here to help with learning and adoption.

Bonita Platform has allowed us to develop GUI relatively fast using its UI Designer while being able to seamlessly integrate our business logic in Java in a BPMN2 process diagram. It gives a nice productivity boost but still requires programming know-how to be able to deliver the final solution to your business problems.

FAB Builder is really useful for me, because it's help me to generate mobile and web app in different stack with the capability of generate of changing backend entities, now it's also have a preview feature which really help me to see how my app works, it save me a lots of time that's the reason I highly recommend to use it, Thank you.

Engine itself is efficient enough for most cases I dealt with. It can also be extended by clustering. I have done performance tests with JMeter and only managed to induce the crash of... JMeter. If there are efficiency issues they usually concern bad design/implementation of created apps or bottlenecks in integrated systems. Although I have met two cases with efficiency loss.

1. Java 7 related PermGen saturation caused by big number of installed apps (there is no jar dependency reusal between apps option).

2. Big number of waiting event handlers in processes stresses the database.

RHPAM is maybe a very good BPM process engine but is very limited to build a complete application.

We also try site soft W4 which needs more developments to build an application. We finally choose Bonita which is easier to get ready with.

Respect of BPMN standard over the long term. Good enhancements by Bonitasoft for new use cases, for example the introduction of a real form editor even if it has been technically difficult to manage. Once done though, we have far greater possibility of human interaction.

• Case management provided as better tracking which help us to meet SLAs.
• Auto email notification helps to address "Where are my request" answers which eventually increased our customer delight index.
• By using the third-party integration, we are able to provide visibility w.r.t end to end request status.
