Overall Satisfaction with Bonita Platform

We're using Bonita Platform to automate administrative processes that are either new processes or are ones that have been done manually in the past.
  • Efficient and fast prototyping: a process can be modeled and tried out quickly and with low investment.
  • Full stack prototyping for development and implementation allows the process to be developed and implemented as an application from the prototype. It's not just drawings and wire frames that are tossed over the wall to developers.
  • Data modeling is integral from the beginning of the prototype which is appropriate for the stakeholders in the beginning.
  • 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 has a positive impact on our new compliance processes.
  • We look forward to developing more master data to allow the process automation to benefit.

Yes

Would you buy Bonita Platform again?

Yes

The development platform is very solid, I have had zero glitches. The production runtime has not thrown any errors either. There is an elegant design and the developer and end user have been well taken care of in the Bonita Platform design.
So far we have integrated it with email and with SQL server.
Bonita Platform functionality is very broad and cost effective, but it still takes considerable expertise. Bonita Platform is either the free community edition or the subscription for enterprises, and partner implementations don't seem very well advertised or available. So a smaller organization that wants to automate processes needs to think about finding a consultant to support the effort. Medium and large organizations probably have the expertise in-house to really make Bonita work for their processes.
