Dancing Numbers is a platform that aims to make importing, exporting, and deleting the data in QuickBooks account easier. Dancing Numbers also offers pro advisors who are present 365 days.
Well suited for low code/no code applications centered around approval flows. It has built-in task management for users to see their pending actions, comments, statuses, etc. It has a very nice design for process flows. Less appropriate may be for generic type applications with complex screens and logic within those screens that need a lot of data to process.

Dancing Numbers is ideal for small to medium-sized businesses needing an easy-to-use, cost-effective accounting solution, particularly during transitions from manual bookkeeping or other software. It’s especially useful for firms with basic accounting needs or limited expertise, offering automation for routine tasks. However, it may not be suitable for large enterprises with complex financial operations, businesses requiring advanced customization, or those in highly regulated industries. It also might fall short for companies with extensive international operations or high transaction volumes.
Bonita seems particularly suited for processes requiring a great deal of human interaction. Its user model allows you to control access to business processes in a fine-grained way. This allows for business processes to move smoothly between users and services as the process advances.
The definition and usage of custom forms from the latest version of Bonita seems particularly powerful. It allows for a thorough customization of the look-and-feel and does not require complex developments.
The web interface and administration section have greatly improved in the latest versions. Installation and configuration of processes has become more flexible and more structured. The administration section gives a good view on failed processes, allowing to analyse problems in an efficient way.

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 Platform has allowed us to develop GUI relatively fast using its UI Designer while being able to seamlessly integrate our business logic in Java in a BPMN2 process diagram. It gives a nice productivity boost but still requires programming know-how to be able to deliver the final solution to your business problems.

I’ve been using Dancing Numbers for a few months now, and overall, it’s been a great experience. The platform is user-friendly and intuitive, making it relatively easy to navigate even for someone with a moderate level of accounting knowledge. The automated data entry and reconciliation features are particularly helpful, saving us a significant amount of time and reducing manual errors.The integration with various accounting systems is a big plus, allowing us to seamlessly connect with our existing tools. Customer support has been responsive and helpful whenever we’ve had questions or needed assistance.However, there are a few areas where Dancing Numbers could improve. While the core functionalities are strong, some advanced features feel a bit limited compared to competitors. Additionally, the pricing structure could be more flexible to accommodate different business sizes and needs.Overall, Dancing Numbers is a solid choice for businesses looking to streamline their accounting processes with a reliable tool, though there’s room for enhancement in certain areas.
Engine itself is efficient enough for most cases I dealt with. It can also be extended by clustering. I have done performance tests with JMeter and only managed to induce the crash of... JMeter. If there are efficiency issues they usually concern bad design/implementation of created apps or bottlenecks in integrated systems. Although I have met two cases with efficiency loss.
1. Java 7 related PermGen saturation caused by big number of installed apps (there is no jar dependency reusal between apps option).
2. Big number of waiting event handlers in processes stresses the database.

Respect of BPMN standard over the long term. Good enhancements by Bonitasoft for new use cases, for example the introduction of a real form editor even if it has been technically difficult to manage. Once done though, we have far greater possibility of human interaction.
