An orchestration tool to automate the end-to-end process with a need to improve its user experience

In BMC TrueSight Orchestration, login is just text-based, so it's really hard to find the problem. We cannot see the ongoing running jobs or interfere with them on an interface. So it's unavailable. There are some restrictions about the permissions, especially the level of the permissions, even though there is not very much there. It's a little bit hard to use clients' development tools, so the user experience may be improved. There is room for improvement for the local team.

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.

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 very good triggering mechanism."

"We can implement compliance standards with the solution. You can also do patching so that the environment is compliant and secure from external threats and hacking. We can provision multiple systems with the help of predefined templates that the organization has forwarded us. The solution’s users can also integrate multiple products which can be either BMC or non-BMC. There are numerous possibilities that can be done with server automation"

"The automation helps in payment transactions through BHIM app. The BMC helps in smooth clearance of all payments without using MasterCard or Visa. The solution is ready to use, and there is no need for customization or resources. We can complete integration over cloud and on-premise, and even using mainframes. The automation are secure through BMC TrueSight Orchestration."

"This solution is scalable."

"I find the provisioning to be the most valuable."

"The best feature of BMC TrueSight Orchestration is the number of integrated mechanisms it provides."

"The initial setup is easy. The deployment was done in an hour."

"The best thing about TrueSight is the user interface, which is intuitive and easy to use. It supports accessibility and exporting, so we can output to the format we require. We can use TrueSight to integrate nearly any other product. I can't think of another product that can match this functionality. We also have Microsoft Orchestrator, but it can't match BMC TrueSight Orchestration."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration pros

"The visibility – the diagrams you create – and then being able to automate based on them are valuable features. It's easy to explain and comprehend, and the integration aspects are valuable."

"Camunda is the best among similar solutions like JBPM and Activiti."

"Having knowledge of the BPM and monitoring process has proven to be very beneficial, as I am currently engaged in documenting processes for Clientele."

"The architectural part of Camunda for workflow design is highly valuable, especially the Camunda Modeler, which allows quick process design and implementation."

"The use of Java is a big plus for our intern developers, and Camunda scales well, as many of our departments are already using it in production with dedicated teams."

"We have seen that investing in a tool like Camunda is valuable, especially because it's an open-source product."

"We were able to build our rules-based API engine, and it does exactly what we wanted it to."

"The flexibility characteristic in a BPMS, through BPMN and DMN, is undoubtedly the most interesting feature for our business."

More Camunda pros

Cons

"The solution is not user-friendly."

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration is difficult to understand. It's not very user-friendly."

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration could improve by providing some visibility on how the workflows are progressing."

"The architecture of this solution needs improvement, it is very complicated."

"Regarding scalability, the architecture does not allow you to add additional servers just able to use two application servers, so it's not scalable."

"At present this solution is only available to be hosted on-premises, which can cause network issues when integration with cloud-based software is attempted."

"We are aiming for AI automation and look for support from BMC. The features are currently missing but we are hoping for some upgrade in this matter."

"The architecture of this solution needs improvement, it is very complicated. It creates a lot of problems in our environment. Most of the time I am trying to find and solve the problem."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration cons

"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."

"The user interface needs some polishing because it is too technical for end-users to use it."

"The initial set up could be simplified, it's complex."

"It would be better if the tool were made less reliant on Java."

"Camunda could be improved by making it easier to modify a process. You can program it to follow a process, but it is difficult to modify the process when the application is in use. It could also be improved by making it easier to use the visual platform without needing to be informed on that. Sometimes, we programmers haven't used it in the past, and it's a bit difficult to learn it."

"If Camunda could develop something that creates user forms that would be a great feature to have. They also need to improve the UI."

"I would say that Camunda should actually focus on small cases as well. There's a lot of space out there, for small businesses."

"The product does not have a dictionary."

More Camunda cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a huge cost saving with BMC TrueSight compared to other solutions."

"Licensing is available in different ways and depends on data being consumed by users and nodes being operated."

"Regarding pricing, it comes with the package when you buy the server automation. But it's made depending on some agreements for companies, of which I don't know the clause."

"Licensing is per lot, or per agent — one agent is one license."

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

"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."

"The product is expensive for a small or medium-sized company."

"I use the open-source free version."

"Camunda Platform is an open-source product."

"Generally, the price could be better, as well as the licensing fees."

"We pay for the license of this solution annually."

"Camunda's pricing is good."
