Automation has transformed banking workflows and drives custom process optimization
Based on my six years of experience, I see that Studio Creatio is continuously improving its workflows, materials, and capabilities. I still see potential improvements in certain areas. For example, some capabilities that the system does not have need to be identified so that customers are aware of what is not possible. The system should be designed to allow customers to connect with any system seamlessly rather than just through marketplace applications. It should have the capability to connect with any other system without limitation, as in some projects, while it was able to connect with 100 other systems, there were one, two, or a few that were not compatible. Regarding needed improvements, with respect to use cases and documentation, more comprehensive use cases and in-depth scenarios covering real business situations and solutions are definitely needed. Mobile users are quite frustrated, so the system needs more modern features, modern user interfaces, and an independent development module for the mobile app. The current mobile app is outdated, and I cannot customize it accordingly. Something new in this area is necessary.

Business Software Developer at a tech services company
This is a RAD tool to build business apps, tables, and forms.
It needs a desktop version for developers with license type CE. I would like to have the possibility to have a CE that lets me migrate from SQL Server Express, Access, and OpenOffice Base and keep all UI front-end development in just one system. In short, the 6.7 was good enough. The question is: Will there always be a desktop version CE that will let me work with, for example, five users for free, and then start to pay from user six, or in my case, three users? Right now, I do not see WaveMaker in this field, and there are others points to ask for from a desktop.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"As a former user, Studio Creatio positively impacted my organization in terms of customer engagement; the actual system was great, but given that sometimes the actual data within a company isn't as joined up as it could be, I cannot fault it."
"This product enables users to structure its business and completely automate, as it is a very easy to use low code platform and helps fast usage of multiple process elements such as user pages, tasks, predefined emails, and decision tasks."
"Overall, Studio Creatio is a very good, flexible tool, and I appreciate that innovation is always present, which is very good for continually evolving cutting-edge technology."
"It enables automating tasks and provides self-service options, ultimately improving efficiency and customer satisfaction."
"I have definitely seen a return on investment with time savings and money savings, as there is a price per license, but this money is coming back to us, making it a worthwhile investment."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its simplicity."
"The low-code tools and business process management that Creatio provides are useful for our internal processes. It is also very easy to use."
"From a 6,000-foot level, just the collaboration piece that we've already gained with our sales cycle is invaluable, absolutely invaluable."
"It is a Rapid Application Development (RAD) tool to build business apps that lets you work with many diverse data stores and build tables and forms easily."
 

Cons

"On the other hand, when you are implementing the solution, we can't get enough support from the vendor."
"Based on my experience, the company's pricing, setup cost, and licensing are somewhat high."
"For processes that require logical thinking and are highly complex with less structured flows, I would rate it a six out of ten because Studio Creatio does not excel at logical thinking, which is the key difference."
"The AI capabilities are a little bit lacking right now; it is not reliable enough to use in everyday operations or even in the development or implementation phases."
"I think Studio Creatio can be improved by being more open source because I thought I could make modifications to Studio Creatio, have API keys to develop my own application, and consume the API keys."
"Creatio needs to stabilize their marketplace."
"It would be great if the product included a process design tool like Visio inside Process Designer."
"Studio Creatio can be improved by sending reminders to the people who were sending in the tickets because sometimes the waiting for response just sits in limbo for a while, and that could be a bit annoying."
"It needs a desktop version for developers with license type CE."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing plans are not user-friendly because in many cases you have to buy different options to get additional features."
"I rate the product price a five or six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"From my standpoint, it blows out of the water all the other competitors out there that we were potentially looking at, and it was in a reasonable price range, whereas you have these other Fortune 500 companies that were asking for a ridiculous amount."
"I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The tool is reasonably priced."
"It is fairly competitive."
