Platform for documenting and modifying our processes
The tool was used for digital transformation. Our company operates in the automotive industry and needs a transition to digitalization. We utilize the BIC Platform for documenting and modifying our processes, as well as incorporating various elements such as KPIs. It serves as a fundamental tool for numerous aspects of our operations.

Supports long-running asynchronous processes effectively but has not evolved much in recent years
I think Camunda is focusing too much on the SaaS offering right now and not much on improving and developing the product itself. I did not see any innovations on that aspect, especially for the open-source version. I was making some tests recently and the tool seemed pretty much the same as it was three or four years ago. Since they made the move to cloud deployment in a more SaaS-oriented way, they do not invest too much in the community version. To be honest, it did not change much from the Activiti initial version. Activiti was pretty much what Camunda is today. They invested a lot on Zeebe and made it the engine for their SaaS cloud version. Camunda itself, the embedded engine, did not evolve too much. They could invest more on that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is easy to use."
"The central dictionary is a valuable feature."
"This is low-cost and very user friendly. A variety of models are available depending on the needs of the customer."
"While this is a new product it has a mature feel from being built by a company with many years in the business."
"There's this graphic that tells you how many lines or how many tickets are in each step. In that way, you know where you stand. I find this feature very valuable."
"It has an open BPM"
"Camunda's process diagram creation and deployment is very easy."
"The architecture is good because it's a headless workflow. I can create my own frontend, and it's fully API-based."
"We can share, discuss, and develop the model together — from a distance. It's really helped us during these times of isolation."
"The speed and execution of DMN was a big selling point for us. It's very good at conducting business processes that are easily modeled and presented in a way that's easy to understand."
"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."
"It is a scalable product. I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The product needs improvement regarding the confidentiality of the domain information for the key administrator."
"As the product is very new, some minor features are still missing, but everything is there to handle day-to-day process modeling."
"There's an issue with the current manual that they're working on."
"The solution could improve its connectivity to other systems."
"I think it would be important to internationalize the Cockpit and the Admin as well as with the Tasklist."
"The migration strategy needs to be improved."
"Collaborations and process documentation in Camunda Platform are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"Like all BPM tools, they're very bad with proprietary UIs. In general, anyone who uses BPM tools should not expect to use their proprietary UI."
"Documentation can be improved."
"Would be helpful if there were additional out-of-the-box activities."
"In the future, I would definitely like to see the process administration (migration, audit, tracking) and process evaluation (optimize) features added to the community edition."
"An improvement would be to support Angular 2 instead of AngularJS, which is quite old."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Scalability-wise, it is an expensive product."
"Pricing will differ between enterprises based on needs such as customization, but the company uses a standardized algorithm for determining this."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"We are using the open-source version of this solution."
"Its price is decent. Everything is included in the license. The Community version is also good to start with. We are using the Community version."
"Compared to other software, Camunda Platform is quite cost-effective."
"There were some features that were only available in the paid version."
"Camunda has a free service as well as a commercial service. We are using the free service."
"When compared with the proprietary products, the pricing costs are much less, even though it is an enterprise edition."
"The price is competitive with products like Bonitasoft and RHPAM (Red Hat Process Automation Manager). We have two versions of Camunda. The first version was open source, without support, but then we got a supported version."
