A strong choice for business process modeling with an easy-to-use drag and drop approach
I design, maintain, and govern the tool to roll it out in the company. I use the solution for business process modeling. For ADOIT, the solution is used for enterprise architecture management or the maintenance of application landscapes Besides BPMN, it's easy to handle the solution thanks to…
FABIO NAGAO - PeerSpot reviewer
Reduces costs with hardware abstraction and simplifies scaling
There is an issue where, in some situations, I need to scale up by observing both CPU and memory usage of containers, yet under the current options available at Amazon, this is not possible. I have to choose between monitoring CPU or memory to scale my solution. Not every software is built for deployment as a container service, although the current architecture trend is changing this.

Pros

"ADONIS supports the project hierarchy and allows collaboration through methodological reviews and comments, enhancing decision-making."
"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."
"It's a very complete solution."
"It is a stable solution."
"For an internal project, this is a solution that you can install and have up and running quite quickly."
"We can share, discuss, and develop the model together — from a distance. It's really helped us during these times of isolation."
"Using the BPMN helps us to have a common shared communication language when discussing processes."
"The best feature is the automation."
"The headless nature of the Camunda Platform is something that has helped us to build our own logic and platforms on it."
"The modeler is useful for creating the flow. The way to access the data through their REST API is also valuable. This is what we're using right now."
"The most valuable feature of Camunda Platform is its Microservices architecture, which is easily integrable with APIs."
"The UI is very user-friendly compared to other products. The native, vanilla UI is very interesting and intuitive to use. It's user-friendly when it comes to modernizing a business process."
 

Cons

"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better."
"ADONIS needs improvement in its user interface functionality."
"The solution is in English and we have added certain parts in Russian as this is easier for our students. It would be useful to have the system in Russian."
"When you update a page, the information on the quick links sidebar on the left side doesn't stay in the same place. It moves down, so you have to scroll to find it. That's not very user-friendly."
"There is a function to check if the model BPMN is being used correctly, but the report from the check is not always very clear."
"The product does not have a dictionary."
"Process interfaces between diagrams could be improved."
"Collaborations and process documentation in Camunda Platform are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"If they could build some scripts or some configuration to get it up and running in a Docker environment, that would be good. I didn't find anything when on Docker, however, maybe they have something and I didn't see it yet."
"The Camunda Modeler installation poses a challenge, requiring local installation, which doesn't help collaboration like other online tools, for instance."
"If there were some industry templates it would have helped significantly, because it is similar to a process map for a domain. That is what we are currently creating, a domain-relevant process map."
"I'm from the .NET world and I would like to use it, rather than Java."
"Without a proper frontend, the business cannot effectively use the platform."

"Licensing costs are anywhere from $80,000 to $100,000 USD per year."
"The product's price depends on the number of processes that need to be automated or where the orchestration part needs to be used. The product is affordable for medium and large enterprises."
