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.
FabioFerri - PeerSpot reviewer
Customer service remains reliable but evaluation of code quality with AI needs enhancement
I am only using the licenses. We are a consulting company, so we use the solution to configure solutions for other customers An artificial intelligence feature that evaluates the quality of the code developed with one click would definitely be good.  I have been using the solution for ten years…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The graphical interface is very beneficial."
"Its flexibility stands out as the most valuable feature."
"It is a scalable product. I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten."
"It is very user-friendly compared to IBM BPM. It's much simpler – it's more streamlined. That means even non-technical departments can use it."
"We have a lot of users, almost 1,800, and we needed something affordable, stable and something that could be used by a large financial company. This solution truly fit the bill."
"It has an open BPM"
"The most valuable features are the management of internal processes, the ability to execute from design and the model for internal processes, the ability to make processes visible, and the ability to have information about the current state of each instance."
"The interface and the number of connectors that they provide are the most valuable features. The support here, it's kind of okay. But the main thing is with the number of connectors and the UI, the user interface."
"The setup cost is definitely reasonable."
"The setup cost is definitely reasonable."
"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward."
 

Cons

"The product's initial setup phase is difficult for beginners."
"I think that Camunda can try to do better when it comes to solving the complexities of all the products in its software stack."
"Camunda needs to improve its user interface for low-code development and provide more user interface options beyond the basic workflow."
"We have to wait to see if Bonita provided us with some features that Camunda does not or if we experience any stability issues."
"We have faced problems with the performance."
"It would be better if the tool were made less reliant on Java."
"The product does not have a dictionary."
"I'm from the .NET world and I would like to use it, rather than Java."
"An artificial intelligence feature that evaluates the quality of the code developed with one click would definitely be good."
"The interface is actually quite confusing."
"An artificial intelligence feature that evaluates the quality of the code developed with one click would definitely be good."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When compared with the proprietary products, the pricing costs are much less, even though it is an enterprise edition."
"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."
"Camunda is much cheaper."
"We use the open-source version, which can be used at no cost."
"There is a bit of scope for improvement in how the licensing and pricing are done. They are based on the number of processing instances you execute on the cluster... but on the self-hosted mode, the pricing model should be customized."
"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"We use the free version."
"We are using the community version. There is no licensing cost."
"For my company, the tool costs about 2,0,000 Euros for three years...If one is bad and ten is good, I rate the price as one out of ten."
