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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is that, with a visual system, you can try to have a process client before beginning the programming for the application."
"For an internal project, this is a solution that you can install and have up and running quite quickly."
"The architectural part of Camunda for workflow design is highly valuable, especially the Camunda Modeler, which allows quick process design and implementation."
"On a scale of one to ten, I rate ECS a ten out of ten."
"Overall, the solution has been very solid."
"Camunda Platform has a very good interface for workflow and business process design."
"Provides an easy way to integrate with the architectural environment."
"The solution is useful for small projects."
"We use it a lot for creating workflows to transfer materials between plants, which is a signature part of what we do."
 

Cons

"If there were some industry templates it would have helped significantly, because it is similar to a process map for a domain. That is what we are currently creating, a domain-relevant process map."
"Community support is basically what I'm looking for. Other than that, it is okay for now."
"The only drawback is the time that it takes to have a complete set of workflows implemented on the Camunda platform."
"It would be helpful to have more readily available use cases on the internet. Camunda's documentation feels less comprehensive."
"I would also like a very easy to use form builder."
"The deployment model could be improved for easier implementation."
"The solution's pricing and scalability could be improved."
"The business model could be easier to understand."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We are using the paid edition because there is no separate support and service license yet. We are yet to find a suitable licensing model for Camunda because we only use the engine, and we have implemented our solution around Camunda Cloud. So, we are mainly interested in the support and service, and that's what we mainly use in the paid edition."
"Camunda's pricing is good."
"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"We use Camunda's community edition, which is free."
"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."
"We are using the open-source version, free of charge. We didn't bother with the enterprise features."
"We are using the open-source version of this solution."
"Camunda Platform is an open-source product."
