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.

Stable platform with a straightforward setup process
The initial setup process is straightforward. It usually takes a day if all the prerequisites are met. It requires correctly configuring the property file. The process is particularly uncomplicated if the deployment is on a standalone system. However, in a clustered environment, the property file needs to be deployed on each server with precise sequencing, following the guidelines provided by the system. The installation script is then executed to install the overall product. The deployment time depends on different use cases and requires one executive to work on it. The level of maintenance support is also based on the use cases. Two executives can easily maintain the product for a simple vanilla setup with normal use cases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product has a good task management engine."
"It allows me to present or to demonstrate the business process flow, visually, without having to resort to PowerPoint, Visio, or other products, and I can convert it into a real process once it is validated visually by the business people."
"We helped our customer to reduce their licensing and operational costs to a larger extent by proposing Camunda BPM to replace the existing BPM solution."
"We have the ability to modify the product if we need to, and that comes in handy whenever we need to add new functionality and features."
"We chose to use Camunda because it's open-source, easy to develop, and scalable, plus we were able to develop some of the enterprise features offered with the license in-house only."
"Camunda's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with different products."
"It has been a stable solution so far since it meets our needs, including data modeling, which we need to do before we embark on analyzing and optimizing the business processes."
"For me, it is a complete solution at this time."
"The platform allows us to create workflows easily."
 

Cons

"When you have a lot of processes running, it becomes very expensive very quickly."
"As we experienced some difficulties in the beginning, deployment took almost a month."
"When addressing a complex and extensive process, the domain it belongs to, be it banking, healthcare, or HR, requires widespread access."
"It's costly and not accessible for small enterprises or startups. It would be great if Camunda offered a tier plan for smaller companies."
"While it's very scalable, it would be great if auto-scaling capabilities were added to it... one area that really could help out would be to have dynamic resizing of the cluster. Right now, you have to do capacity planning."
"They have a migration plugin that can be used to migrate from one BPM to another BPM. It is in the beta stage since last year."
"I'm from the .NET world and I would like to use it, rather than Java."
"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."
"Currently, the libraries are more specific to a few network equipment providers. They could introduce more libraries from different vendors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use a community version."
"Generally, the price could be better, as well as the licensing fees."
"We're using the free version. We used the Enterprise version for some time. If I compare free versus what we paid at that time, the Enterprise version costs a lot. For the additional functionality that we got with the Enterprise version, it was too costly."
"We use the free version."
"We use the open-source version, which can be used at no cost."
"I tried to get some information about buying the license for the solution, but I found it kind of hard to understand the business model."
"It is good for a startup. When we started, its price was fair, but the way we are using it to orchestrate microservices makes it expensive. When you are growing as a company, you would have more microservices, and you would have more users. There is an exponential effect when you are growing in terms of the number of conditions, processes, and users because they bill you per process. So, the price was increasing very quickly for us, and it was very difficult."
"Camunda is much cheaper."
"They offer a subscription-based license and not a perpetual license for the platform. You have to purchase a yearly license."
