Platform for documenting and modifying our processes
The tool was used for digital transformation. Our company operates in the automotive industry and needs a transition to digitalization. We utilize the BIC Platform for documenting and modifying our processes, as well as incorporating various elements such as KPIs. It serves as a fundamental tool for numerous aspects of our operations.
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"While this is a new product it has a mature feel from being built by a company with many years in the business."
"This is low-cost and very user friendly. A variety of models are available depending on the needs of the customer."
"The product is easy to use."
"The central dictionary is a valuable feature."
"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."
"The modeler is useful for creating the flow. The way to access the data through their REST API is also valuable. This is what we're using right now."
"Camunda is a scalable product."
"The best feature is the automation."
"I can use any other tools to create services and the UI, and then use them together with the Camunda BPMN engine."
"Camunda's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with different products."
"It is an absolutely stable solution."
"Camunda Platform has a very good interface for workflow and business process design."
 

Cons

"There's an issue with the current manual that they're working on."
"The solution could improve its connectivity to other systems."
"As the product is very new, some minor features are still missing, but everything is there to handle day-to-day process modeling."
"The product needs improvement regarding the confidentiality of the domain information for the key administrator."
"I would like to see the forms engine available in the open-source version of this solution."
"The initial set up could be simplified, it's complex."
"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."
"It's costly and not accessible for small enterprises or startups. It would be great if Camunda offered a tier plan for smaller companies."
"The solution's pricing and scalability could be improved."
"The documentation could use improvement."
"The only drawback is the time that it takes to have a complete set of workflows implemented on the Camunda platform."
"Probably one area I look forward to has to do with AI and how Camunda sees the AI angle on workflow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Scalability-wise, it is an expensive product."
"Pricing will differ between enterprises based on needs such as customization, but the company uses a standardized algorithm for determining this."
"Generally, the price could be better, as well as the licensing fees."
"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"Camunda is much cheaper."
"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."
"The evaluation of my customers on pricing is that it is reasonable."
"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."
"We pay for the license of this solution annually."
