Camunda Reviews

We use Camunda to automate business processes.

The most valuable features are the workflow, the task list, and the modeler where we use VPN.

An improvement would be to support Angular 2 instead of AngularJS, which is quite old. I would also like Camunda to provide support for migrating to the new version so that my processes migrate without any problems.

I've been using Camunda for almost six months.

Stability-wise, Camunda is good, but sometimes task queries get very slow when we have a large number of tasks.

The scalability is quite good, we've had no challenges with it.

The initial setup is quite easy - I set it up in 30-35 hours.

The license is quite expensive, which is why we went with the community version.

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. I would definitely recommend anyone thinking of implementing Camunda to try it out, just bear in mind that when the number of tasks increases, you need to write your own queries and that you need to keep the number of form variables low because performance decreases when it gets higher. I would rate Camunda Platform eight out of ten.

We are using it for one of our workflows. We are not using the user interface per se. We are making use of JavaScript Angular for the UI. So, we're just using the engine part of Camunda.

We are using its latest version.

The ease with which I can define workflows is most valuable. The latest updates and flexibility that it provides around a task activity are interesting for me.

Community support is basically what I'm looking for. Other than that, it is okay for now.

I have been using this solution for the past one and a half years.

Its stability is okay. As far as the performance is concerned, we have our internal architectural constraints, and because of them, it is unstable, but it specifically has nothing to do with Camunda.

It is easy to scale. We have about 50 to 60 users, and it is used on a daily basis.

We used to use K2. We changed from K2 to Camunda mainly due to the licensing cost issues.

It was simple. It took us about three or four weeks to deploy the first portion or first draft of BPM.

In terms of maintenance, it is okay. It doesn't require anything specific.

We did it internally.

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.

It is loosely coupled. Therefore, there is a lot of flexibility in the way we want to restrict the usage of Camunda. 

I would rate it a nine out of 10.

We ran two proofs of concept, but it was on internal processes. Both processes were related to the human resources area. Right now, the IT central area is working on a service to optimize using Camunda.

We use the community version, and we use Cawemo Platform to start modeling and involving the areas. We pass the models to the IT central area, and they go on with the job. I work for the government of my state. I work in a central area, and we work with BPM, so we were trying to find a solution for automatization. That's when we found Camunda.

We are trying to transition the environment and trying to see the use for it in the future, but right now we are running one project specifically.

When we ran our first proof of concept, we had some aid from an external company called Memora, which is a representative here in Brazil. They have high-quality technicians. The first project was really a success.

We don't have specific key users because we are trying to understand how to use the solution in order to provide public services for the citizens of our state. They are solving some technical issues and trying to integrate the solution with our internal IT environment.

The idea is using the community version in order to provide public services, but not all services, because we have a traditional program system development. They are considering buying a local tool, and they are considering Camunda Platform.

We are using the newest version of the solution.

We like the idea of working with Cawemo because it enables us to keep on working, remotely or not. It allows us to collaborate between areas. It's easy to model and easy to use. It's a great tool for communicating at the beginning of a project.

The business model could be easier to understand.

We started using Camunda at the beginning of 2020. We started researching and using the Cawemo solution for modeling, getting the idea, and knowing the environment. That's when we decided to run a proof of concept. It happened in the middle of 2020.

During 2021, we had some issues concerning coronavirus, so things stopped for a while. Right now, the central area responsible for IT restart is considering running another proof of concept on Camunda.

It is stable.

The solution is scalable.

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. That's why we're currently using the community version.

I would rate this solution 10 out of 10. 

My advice is try to understand and use it because it's really an amazing solution. I only have nice words to say about it. I really hope our central IT area runs this proof of concept, and that it becomes successful in the near future so that we really start offering public services on Camunda Platform. It's easy to use, stable, it integrates areas, and you can use the community version.

We use it for the public sector. Currently, we are only modeling the processes, but in the future, we would be automating all the processes. We are at the first phase of the process.

It is simple to use. The user experience is very good.

In terms of features, it meets my needs, but I would like Camunda to have an office in Brazil and provide training in Portuguese. They should provide regional support and training courses in Portuguese.

We have been using this solution for a year and a half.

It is very stable.

It is scalable for what we need. We have five people who are using this platform, and we plan to increase its usage. We are implementing it in some of the remote offices, and we would be able to expand it next year.

We are using the community version, so we are not using their support.

It was very simple. We are using the web solution, and it was very easy and quick. We could start using it in one week.

We are using the community version. There is no licensing cost.

We are beginning to use it for modeling some areas in the public sector, and there is no problem. I am yet to use all the features that Camunda has. For me, it is a complete solution at this time.

I would rate it an eight out of 10.

We use the BPMN flows for order capturing of our end-to-end customer journey. There are many intermediate flows and we mainly use the tax delegate part of it.

We have been able to save costs using this solution compared to the product we used before.

I have faced problems in bringing up the Cockpit in terms of GUI processes. I think that there is room for improvement in those areas.

We have used this solution for one year. 

This is a stable solution. 

We have a support contract this has been working fine for us till now.

We previously used a product from Ericsson. 

The initial setup is a bit complex.

The learning curve is a bit steep. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

We use the free version because our organization is a consulting organization and we work normally for customers. My primary use case is for training and modeling purposes.

I use the BPMN and the DMN model. 

The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use. I train my colleagues and customers and I don't want them to need to learn how the solution works. I want to be the one who learns about the product and teach them BPMN. 

It's user friendly, much better than most tools I have seen.

The documentation could use improvement. 

I have been using Camunda for two years. 

For modeling it's very stable. At the execution level, I don't have experience.

I think it is scalable, but I don't have experience with scaling it. 

The initial setup of this platform was very simple.

Often more functions will make a model or tool more complex. I like the simplicity of Camunda. It is very easy to use. 

We have multiple B2B services running for our customers. We have approximately 120 workflows and are eventually migrating everything to the Camunda Platform. We have approximately 25 workflows on Camunda currently running.

The headless nature of the Camunda Platform is something that has helped us to build our own logic and platforms on it.

The cockpit features of the Camunda Platform can be improved to make it a bit more user-friendly, in terms of providing a bit more user experience for non-technical users. There could be some additional documentation added.

I have been using the Camunda Platform for approximately one year.

I would rate the stability of the Camunda Platform an eight out of ten.

There are some improvements needed.

The solution is scalable, it can fit any size business.

The technical support is good. However, the agent is not in the position to understand our use case for them to report to us on time. The speed and training of the support agents could improve.

I rate the support of the Camunda Platform a seven out of ten.

I have used K2 and some other workflow solutions previously.

The initial installation was not difficult for us because we had already some experience with the solution.

The price of the solution is reasonable. 

My advice is you have to be a bit optimistic and you need to see if this solution is the right fit. You have to determine if you are looking for a low-code platform or a headless platform. There is a misunderstanding between multiple products and the Camunda Platform being a headless BPMN, it is not a low-code platform.

I rate Camunda Platform an eight out of ten.

I'm the Leader of the Center of Excellence at my company with 18 years of experience in BPM platforms, and my team works with Camunda on several different projects where we deploy Camunda either on-premises at our clients' sites or through the cloud.

Our clients that are using Camunda range from a large enterprise media company in Brazil to banks and central industry (e.g. energy industry). We have found it to be very useful in multiple segments of any enterprise. We now have about 1,000 users of Camunda in all.

I love that Camunda is a very developer-friendly platform, and my customers have evaluated the pricing as reasonable. Personally, I also like that the Camunda platform as a whole helps us to easily measure the life cycle of all the relevant processes. For example, the Camunda platform includes Cawemo for business analysts, Cockpit for process engine configuration, and modeling tools for developers. Then you have Optimize, which is helpful in managing processes and continuously improving on them.

We haven't run into many problems, because Camunda provides everything we need to delegate solutions for all the technologies (for example, Java clusters) and programming languages that we use. However, I do think that Camunda can try to do better when it comes to solving the complexities of all the products in its software stack.

I have been using Camunda for eight years.

Camunda is very reliable but you need to understand the process engineer execution in order to provide solutions that are synchronized and, thus, stable.

It's a very scalable platform in my experience. 

The Camunda installation is very simple. For example, if your project requires standalone applications, Camunda can provide the necessary external components to complete the installation. The setup can be a little more complex when compared with other applications such as JBoss, but overall it only needs a few extra configuration steps.

The evaluation of my customers on pricing is that it is reasonable.

I feel that the Camunda engine is a very scalable platform, and compares well with many other BPM platforms that I work with.

I would rate Camunda a ten out of ten.
