## ProcessMaker Reviews
  ### 1. Efficient workflow automation tool

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Izuchukwu M. | System Administrator, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2024

**What do you like best about ProcessMaker?**

I like the simple interface ProcessMaker has that enables for easy creating, managing and using of workflows. ALmost anyone can learn to use the application in no time. ALso i have observed that out of the many apps out there, ProcessMaker is one of the few that can handle enterprise scale usage while still easy for the general use.

**What do you dislike about ProcessMaker?**

I disliked the hidden bugs that can through workflows off and this are not process errors but something off with the app itself.

**What problems is ProcessMaker solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProcessMaker has solved the problem of inefficient manual workflows and process bottlenecks in our organization. By automating repetitive tasks and streamlining the approval processes, it has significantly improved operational efficiency. One of the fun things i observed is that now, most departments now request for their own customized workflows that suits their daily usage. THis has made approvals and daily workflow easy to achieve.

**Official Response from Shirley Perez:**

> We're thrilled to hear that ProcessMaker has helped your organization automate workflows and improve operational efficiency. We understand the importance of reliable and bug-free software, and we are actively working to enhance the stability and performance of our application to provide a seamless experience for our users.

  ### 2. ProcessMaker is an excellent business process automation software.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Oil & Energy | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2024

**What do you like best about ProcessMaker?**

ProcessMaker is constantly being upgraded from time to time, incorporating artificial intelligence in it makes it easy for users with little or no coding skill to build business process automation.
With the write knowledge and skill in ProcessMaker, designers can customize and build complex business automation processes.

**What do you dislike about ProcessMaker?**

Every feature I have seen in ProcessMaker is helpful depending on what one wants to achieve, some features may be used more often than others depending on what the user wants.
ProcessMaker platform is a bit expensive especially for small and medium sized organisation in Africa. There are businesses that would have loved to use ProcessMaker but cannot afford it.

**What problems is ProcessMaker solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProcessMaker makes our business processes easy. Users can raise requests from anywhere they are and receive approval to carry an action without stepping out of there homes. It helps us to keep proper records of events which users can reffer to at any time. It has blocked a lot of leakages that may give room for improper behaviour by some users. It has saved us a lot of money that would have been spent in printing materials because information are stored in soft copy and are properly documented for future reference.

**Official Response from Shirley Perez:**

> We're glad to hear that you find ProcessMaker's constant upgrades and incorporation of artificial intelligence helpful for users with little coding skills. Our goal is to make business process automation accessible to all users.

  ### 3. A GOOD PROCESS FLOW PLATFORM

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** peter a. | Service Catalog, Asset and Configuration Analyst, Knowledge Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 02, 2025

**What do you like best about ProcessMaker?**

ProcessMaker is flexible to use. The platform has capability to do a test run to be sure of the process you are building. You can run as many processes as you want to build and run.

**What do you dislike about ProcessMaker?**

It is unable to integrate with Adobe Sign

**What problems is ProcessMaker solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have used ProcessMaker to build a document management system, to mange our organizations policy and process document. This has saved as some cost. ProcessMaker has also been used to automate a lot of our transactional report, saving tellers the time in generating some reports.

  ### 4. ProcessMaker wants you to succeed.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tyler S. | Assistant Director, Enterprise Applications, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 04, 2021

**What do you like best about ProcessMaker?**

The customer support and ease of use makes this a great platform! The scripting capability makes the product almost limitless. They are consistently pushing out new features and bug fixes and are flexible on when things are updated. We are pushing more and more processes out that are used on a daily basis. After a couple of years, our campus is now very familiar with the name ProcessMaker and the general consensus is that ProcessMaker is a fantastic tool and allows us to easily and quickly stand up simple processes. Complex processes take a considerable amount of time, but not due to limitations from ProcessMaker. Their new Intelligent Document Processing add-on is a promising feature that I'm looking forward to using more.

**What do you dislike about ProcessMaker?**

My only gripe with ProcessMaker right now is around branding. Nothing technical at all. I'd just like to be able to choose my Organization's colors for charts and graphs instead of the baked in "regular" colors.

**Recommendations to others considering ProcessMaker:**

The scripting ability of this platform can make it do just about anything that any other competitor can do. That part is a game-changer. This platform will also allow for us to empower our end users to create their own processes and then come to IT to get them hooked up to our ERP via scripting and API calls. This takes nearly half the work off of our plates!

**What problems is ProcessMaker solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Before ProcessMaker, we were a paper-heavy institution. We relied on paper forms transferred around campus (often as email attachment) to get things done that our ERP doesn't support out of the box. Now, we've transcribed those paper processes into ProcessMaker Requests. While most are still "manually" routed by choosing the approver on the form, it takes the guess work out of the process and provides transparency. Many processes we've been able to automatically route the request based on variables provided by the user.

**Official Response from Jose Maldonado:**

> Thanks for the great feedback -we're glad to hear you have creating value with ProcessMaker. You'll also be  happy to hear we have enhanced our authentication support for better SCIM compatibility with Azure AD and other vendors. 

  ### 5. Helps Create Efficiencies

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jamie D. | Director Of Operations, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 14, 2024

**What do you like best about ProcessMaker?**

Having access to a developer is helpful, as well as the training provided when you want to do it yourself. It was also easy to integrate into our system.

**What do you dislike about ProcessMaker?**

There are some basic tasks that you would expect the program to be able to do that it cannot.

**What problems is ProcessMaker solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's allowing us to eliminate manual work and allow us to focus on the important stuff that our customers care about.

**Official Response from Shirley Perez:**

  ### 6. Autmation of product warranty process

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2024

**What do you like best about ProcessMaker?**

I am thoroughly impressed with the dedication and commitment of the Team. Their eagerness to deliver the best possible product for their customers is truly commendable. The team's "can do" approach and remarkable flexibility make working with them a pleasure. They consistently go above and beyond to meet and exceed expectations, ensuring a high level of satisfaction. The custom intergrations that Processmaker created with Husbpot and Bigcommerce, are stable and do the job.

**What do you dislike about ProcessMaker?**

One area where I believe there is room for improvement is in the design of their forms and screens. Our experience would have been even better if they had a frontend developer who focuses on the design aspects of the brand, as well as the screens and forms delivered by ProcessMaker. Enhancing this aspect would significantly elevate the product delivery and time spend from our side on layout adjustments

**What problems is ProcessMaker solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProcessMaker is automating our complete product registration and warranty claim process. We receive a large amount of warranty claims each year, which requires significant resources to manage. The implementation by ProcessMaker will relieve this pressure significantly, streamlining our operations and improving efficiency.

**Official Response from Jose Maldonado:**

> We are delighted with your positive feedback towards our product and our team. I want to point out that we recognize the challenge with many of our screen design choices and we are working hard to offer much cleaner Form alternatives. I hope you will also be happy to know that with the recent introduction of Screen Templates, you can take the guesswork, tinkering and complexity from crafting great looking screens. Thank you,
