Find out in this report how the two Process Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have a lot of users, almost 1,800, and we needed something affordable, stable and something that could be used by a large financial company. This solution truly fit the bill."
"It is quite easy to build a simple process without any knowledge of programming."
"The product is stable."
"I can use any other tools to create services and the UI, and then use them together with the Camunda BPMN engine."
"It is an absolutely stable solution."
"Overall, the solution has been very solid."
"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."
"The solution is good for data models."
"The product has everything we need."
"What I find the most valuable about Oracle BPEL is that it saves me time."
"I think that Camunda can try to do better when it comes to solving the complexities of all the products in its software stack."
"The GUI needs to be improved, with more configuration options."
"The primary issue regarding the Camuto platform is its high cost of training. This is why I haven't discussed it extensively, as compared to other products that are more affordable in terms of developer training."
"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."
"The product must provide more videos and training materials."
"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."
"There are a few things that I'm missing. For instance, the user interface creator, which I know other systems have, like Aurea or Lombardi, which are IBM solutions. The interface creator, including the data model creator or some module which would allow the users who are not programmers or business consultants and who are not technically skilled in database and Java programming, to create data models and user interfaces."
"In the next release, I would like to see REST improved and new technologies for microservices. I'd like to see more containers for separating containers."
"Some user-defined functions for transformation must be added to the next release of the solution."
