They really understand deeply and in detailed fashion the solution.
They provide better support for the enterprise edition.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.5
Boomi AtomSphere Flow is effective and rated highly for scalability but requires manual adjustments for resource scaling.
Sentiment score
7.0
Camunda excels in scalability using modern tools but faces database challenges; improvements are noted in documentation and setup.
I would rate the scalability as nine out of ten, as it effectively scales to meet our clients’ needs.
In terms of scalability, the tool is quite scalable, and I would rate it eight or nine.
Camunda offers a high level of scalability, especially when using its SaaS model, which manages and scales implementations automatically.
ECS and Fargate make horizontal scalability very easy.
They have that REST layer, REST APIs layer that makes it easy to integrate and make it part of a microservices ecosystem and APIs.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.3
Boomi AtomSphere Flow is stable and efficient for moderate use but struggles with heavy data loads and API integration bugs.
Sentiment score
7.8
Camunda is highly rated for stability, with minimal bugs, and performs efficiently in various production environments even under load.
The solution maintains high stability, which makes it reliable.
There haven't been any significant outages in my experience with Camunda.
We were not really concerned about the performance on the process itself because it was super simple, super straightforward, and it did not present itself as a bottleneck, nor did we feel it was adding additional time in the execution.
 

Room For Improvement

Boomi AtomSphere Flow needs user-friendliness, stability, AI enhancements, better support, and flexibility for complex integrations and large datasets.
Camunda needs better customization, programming language integration, scalability, and AWS support, with enhanced documentation and performance improvements.
We are particularly interested in exploring AI features more thoroughly, focusing on next-generation enhancements like ChatGPT.
For complex integration scenarios, Boomi could improve its flexibility.
More open documentation would be beneficial to understand the deployment process better and facilitate easier setup.
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.
Since they made the move to cloud deployment in a more SaaS-oriented way, they do not invest too much in the community version.
 

Setup Cost

Boomi AtomSphere Flow's pricing is seen as reasonable, especially for small-scale operations, with ratings averaging 6.5-7/10.
Camunda's pricing is competitive, but costly for small businesses; enterprise edition offers advanced features and support options.
The pricing is considered a bit expensive yet not excessively so, particularly when compared to similar solutions like MuleSoft.
The pricing is good for a small-scale company like ours, and the licensing cost is reasonable.
AWS pricing is very competitive compared to Azure and cheap compared to Google.
There is a licensing cost for using the SaaS model and Enterprise edition of Camunda.
 

Valuable Features

Boomi AtomSphere Flow streamlines integration with a low-code interface, boosting scalability, security, and efficiency across diverse systems.
Camunda is valued for its flexibility, open-source customization, user-friendly interface, and effective management of complex processes.
We use Boomi for various types of integrations, such as SFTP integration, database integration, Snowflake integration, and we also perform transformations using maps and scripts.
The most valuable features include the ease of designing Boomi flows and the significant cost savings and reduced time to market they offer our clients.
EC2 makes scaling horizontally incredibly easy, especially when working under the ECS service.
Camunda's support for BPMN 2.0 is a great advantage because it allows us to have a common language to discuss technology and business in the same perspective.
The biggest difference between Camunda and Bonita might be that Camunda is simpler and more flexible for setting.

Featured Reviews

NarendraThota - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool that helps save money in the long run with a need to offer users the ability to deal with large datasets
From an improvement perspective, Boomi AtomSphere Flow should come up with the ability to deal with large datasets. The data integration part is a concern when you try to connect to an on-premises environment since the latency is high, making it an aspect where improvements are required to reduce the latency. Whenever Boomi AtomSphere Flow gets integrated with applications like SAP, it is important to ensure that what you develop is user-friendly, which is a process that takes time, especially when compared with webMethods.io or TIBCO. The development effort with Boomi AtomSphere Flow is more when you compare it with other tools, which is a drawback and an area of improvement.
CristianoGomes - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
