Bizagi Modeler is a business-process modeling tool for creating, documenting, simulating, publishing, and sharing processes with BPMN. It supports BPMN process and value chain diagrams, and imports Microsoft Visio, XPDL, and BPMN diagrams. Documentation can be published to PDF, Word, Excel, the web, and Microsoft SharePoint. The free plan includes process simulation and what-if scenarios, one user, and unlimited processes and models, but stores models locally. Enterprise adds comments on diagrams and shapes, an activity stream, unlimited editors and contributors, and a cloud repository. Enterprise customers can choose data storage from ten centers in the United States, Europe, and Asia. The cloud service encrypts network traffic, and Bizagi says its Cloud Operations team monitors the service around the clock. The product is available on the web and Windows. Bizagi provides a user guide, video tutorials, and a community for questions, ideas, and issue reports. Enterprise pricing is on request.
