Featured Reviews

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.
Yaniv Ivgi - PeerSpot reviewer
An affordable cloud solution for automation and data manipulation
Make has a single IP. We cannot use a single IP because of the security. There are a lot of crashes when you work manually. Also, they need to provide more models. When you have an error, Make should inform them with guidance before you make the mistake. There is a lot of data you can confuse.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Camunda is a scalable product."
"It is quite easy to build a simple process without any knowledge of programming."
"The architecture is good because it's a headless workflow. I can create my own frontend, and it's fully API-based."
"Camunda serves as an automation library and provides lightweight deployment to the cloud."
"We have been able to save costs using this solution compared to the product we used before."
"The solution is good for data models."
"The platform's approach to BPMN modeling is straightforward and versatile, making it easy to adopt and use effectively."
"Camunda Platform has a very good interface for workflow and business process design."
"Make's front-end interface, the modular interface that it has, drag-and-drop interface, is very easy to understand, use, and integrate."
"Make's front-end interface, the modular interface that it has, drag-and-drop interface, is very easy to understand, use, and integrate."
"The most valuable features of Make are the additional options when compared to other similar solutions. For example, with Google my business, you can only do certain things with Zapier, whereas with Make, you can do a little bit more."
"Make saves a lot of time, and I have created really complex scenarios in Make."
 

Cons

"The deployment model could be improved for easier implementation. More open documentation would be beneficial to understand the deployment process better and facilitate easier setup."
"The product does not have a dictionary."
"It is not difficult to change existing processes. The difficulty was in integration, for example, to call an external web API, and in the security capabilities, to use a vault for secrets. That was difficult."
"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 setup process is a drawback as it has many dependencies, which affects our ability to migrate to Windows eleven due to security concerns."
"It has a Postgres database at the backend, and it is very difficult to scale if you increase the number of processes running. We did hit some barriers. We were able to overcome them, but it was a problem. Camunda has another product called Camunda Cloud, which supposedly doesn't have the same scalability problems, but we are not using Camunda Cloud because the set of features is smaller than Camunda On-Premises. So, its scalability can be improved. Because it has a single database, it is more difficult to scale if you have a huge success."
"Camunda needs to improve its user interface for low-code development and provide more user interface options beyond the basic workflow."
"I would like to see the forms engine available in the open-source version of this solution."
"The pricing of Make at this point is through operations consumption, and it becomes really expensive in certain scenarios when iterations are involved."
"Make can be a bit difficult to use for new users, but for someone with technical knowledge and some coding skills, it becomes manageable, especially with Make's great UI features that really help."
"Make could improve the ease of use, it can be more complicated than other solutions. There are a lot of elements that are more technical than in other solutions."
"The pricing of Make at this point is through operations consumption, and it becomes really expensive in certain scenarios when iterations are involved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are using the open-source version, free of charge. We didn't bother with the enterprise features."
"Camunda has a free service as well as a commercial service. We are using the free service."
"Compared to other software, Camunda Platform is quite cost-effective."
"Camunda is much cheaper."
"We use a community version."
"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."
"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."
"Camunda Platform is an open-source product."
"The price of Make is approximately $20 per month for the platform."
