Manager at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Regulatory changes or implementation needs should not take years to resolve, as the value is not just the license cost per number of cases run in the workflow, but how you achieve service enhancement for your company.
Product Owner/Manager at RS2i
When it comes to return on investment for Camunda, regarding process lead time reduction, we see something between 50 to 80 percent easily.
Head of Process Excellence at ODDO-BHF

Owner at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
They provide better support for the enterprise edition.
Technical and Solution Architect at Freelance
In our AMC, we need to contact them first for first-level support, and if they cannot respond or do not have a fix, they escalate it to HOPEX.

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
6.6
Camunda excels in scalable deployments for various business sizes, with strong architecture but needs better documentation and support.
Sentiment score
7.1
MEGA HOPEX is scalable and adaptable for organizations, but larger implementations require careful management to avoid performance issues.
Camunda offers a high level of scalability, especially when using its SaaS model, which manages and scales implementations automatically.
Technical and Solution Architect at Freelance
ECS and Fargate make horizontal scalability very easy.
Chief Technology Officer at Looplex SA
They have that REST layer, REST APIs layer that makes it easy to integrate and make it part of a microservices ecosystem and APIs.
Owner at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.8
Camunda is highly stable, excelling in reliability despite occasional integration challenges, and supports long-running processes effectively.
Sentiment score
7.2
MEGA HOPEX is generally stable, with stability varying based on customization levels, resolved issues, and external platform interactions.
There haven't been any significant outages in my experience with Camunda.
Technical and Solution Architect at Freelance
We were not really concerned about the performance on the process itself because it was super simple, super straightforward, and it did not present itself as a bottleneck, nor did we feel it was adding additional time in the execution.
Owner at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
For stability, most use cases depend on the workflow engine with Cockpit, which is stable about 98% of the time.
Transformation Manager at Vodafone
 

Room For Improvement

Camunda users seek UI improvements, expanded functionality, better regional support, enhanced security, and improved integration and documentation.
MEGA HOPEX faces stability, usability, and integration issues, lacking intuitive interface, comprehensive support, and efficient customization capabilities.
For our implementation, the only issue we have encountered is that when it comes to scaling with external tasks, it struggles on Camunda 7.
Principal Solutions Architect at BT - British Telecom
More open documentation would be beneficial to understand the deployment process better and facilitate easier setup.
Technical and Solution Architect at Freelance
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.
Chief Technology Officer at Looplex SA
MegaHOPEX lacks comprehensive features that a governance tool should have, particularly in data governance.
Data Governance Leader at Adres
Having something similar to ARIS would make it easier to build dashboards, providing a what-you-see-is-what-you-get experience, allowing me to drag and drop elements, configure them, and test queries.
Administrator at a healthcare company with 51-200 employees
 

Setup Cost

Camunda offers free open-source and enterprise plans, starting at $200/month, with enterprise costs around $50,000 annually.
MEGA HOPEX is considered expensive, with yearly licensing and consulting costs, posing challenges for smaller organizations and enterprise users.
AWS pricing is very competitive compared to Azure and cheap compared to Google.
Chief Technology Officer at Looplex SA
I do not know if it is just not possible to run the whole environment at a rate that would be affordable.
Freelance Consultant at a consultancy with self employed
While it might be too expensive for smaller business use cases, if we can automate and have high-value cases, then Camunda's pricing makes sense.
Transformation Manager at Vodafone
 

Valuable Features

Camunda offers flexibility, user-friendly interface, BPMN compliance, integration capabilities, scalability, and customization, supporting seamless complex process orchestration.
MEGA HOPEX offers IT portfolio management, process mapping, compliance, and data integration, enhancing collaboration, governance, and workflow efficiency.
The customer support is outstanding.
Freelance Consultant at a consultancy with self employed
The coexistence that Camunda allows is important because we are connected, using it as an orchestrator for domain controllers and various automation platforms, both legacy and new, ensuring we are independent and can operate across domains.
Transformation Manager at Vodafone
Another feature I value is the intuitiveness of BPMN that allows you to create your UI without needing a developer, which is very helpful.
Manager at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
MEGA HOPEX has extensive modeling capabilities and can be modeled in different ways.
Administrator at a healthcare company with 51-200 employees

Workflow orchestration has supported complex enforcement processes and improves human task integration
Areas that have room for improvement in Camunda include the user interface. We moved from Camunda 7 to Camunda 8, and previously we had Camunda 7 Cockpit, and now we have Operate. The UI of Operate is less user-friendly. It may be a little more modern, but it is less user-friendly, so some insights are missed. The UI could be improved. Another topic is something that should have been recently solved in Camunda 8, but in Camunda 7, we had a case management system based on Camunda, and we had our own identifiers in our system. It was easier in Camunda 7 to link these identifications, the business identification to the process identification, and in Camunda 8, this was not implemented until the 8.10 release. We really missed that feature, as it made it very difficult to embed and especially for debugging. The combination with the new Operate instead of Camunda 7 Cockpit made it difficult to find specific running processes. The maintenance of Camunda is somewhat complex. Recently, we had to move from 8.8 to 8.9 or 8.10, and everything was broken, which cost us a lot of time to repair and revert. The complexity is particularly evident because of the architectural changes Camunda made when moving from Camunda 7 to Camunda 8. It took about three years to make Camunda 8 mature, and sometimes it seems they realized they made a wrong decision by switching to a completely different approach. It is not just a matter of pushing a button and installing it; it has a bigger impact than expected, which is indeed one of the downsides we recently faced. The ability to observe and control processes at runtime, related to Operate, rates at a six in my assessment, so that could definitely be improved.

Supports process modeling and customization but needs better reporting flexibility and UI improvements
As an administrator, I would improve MEGA HOPEX by adding a WYSIWYG feature for building reports, which would be very helpful. Additionally, I would want reporting customization from the front end web application, not only from the Windows app, which is the customizer. If all changes could be made in the web application, that would be beneficial because every time we need to request access to the server, it takes time in large organizations and involves multiple levels of approvals from cybersecurity and IT security, which can block the project. Regarding dashboards in MEGA HOPEX, they could definitely be better. Having something similar to ARIS would make it easier to build dashboards, providing a what-you-see-is-what-you-get experience, allowing me to drag and drop elements, configure them, and test queries. Moreover, RFQL language is not common, so in MEGA HOPEX, I need to learn RFQL querying. In terms of additional features for MEGA HOPEX, I would appreciate more features for workflows. There are limitations in customizing the email notifications sent during workflows. When creating a workflow, I can configure actions and customize the text, but not the header and footer. Therefore, all emails from the tool come with a MEGA HOPEX header. In large organizations like BPM COE, we want to have our own logo, header, and footer in those emails, but this is not configurable, which I find limiting. I would appreciate easier features to customize workflows and create workflows.
