Creatio Alternative
Creatio alternative for all kind of processes, not just commercial ones.
In this article, we analyze and propose Flokzu Cloud BPM as a proven Creatio alternative for all the processes of your organization, without being limited to those of the commercial area and IT-Staff.
Introduction
bpm'online is a tool originally conceived as a CRM, to attend strictly commercial processes. It was renamed as Creatio in 2019. Generic functionalities have been added lately, which are complex for business users and require IT skills. Creatio is specially limited when you try to run (automate) modelled processes quickly. Its functionalities are more aligned with a CRM than with a BPM Suite, so implementing processes from other areas takes more time and costs.
Flokzu was specially designed to speed up the construction and deployment of all kind of business processes in a very short time and without technical knowledge. Flokzu also supports the BPMN 2.0 international standard (OMG), making processes easily understandable for everyone. It also provides wider and more powerful features set, allowing to automate business processes, and integrating them with other legacy or web apps. As a result, you can have all kind of processes running in hours (instead of weeks or months) at an affordable price.
In conclusion…
We are sure that you will find in Flokzu a better alternative to Creatio for your processes, in particular when you don't only want to automate those of the commercial area and you are a business user (not IT). Flokzu's functional set is designed to meet the needs of all areas, not only Commercial, but also Human Resources, Administration, Finance, Production, etc. Flokzu's licensing and pricing model is much clearer and more accessible, so the total cost of ownership is much lower. Anyway, there is no better evaluation of a BPM Suite than use it and feel how it adapts to your needs. We invite you to try both BPM suites before making a decision.
