Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We have the ability to modify the product if we need to, and that comes in handy whenever we need to add new functionality and features.""One valuable feature of the solution is its flexibility.""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.""Camunda's process diagram creation and deployment is very easy.""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.""It is quite easy to build a simple process without any knowledge of programming.""We are documenting all of the processors and VPN. Then we are sharing it with our business users.""The flexibility is great."

"The fact that the repository is available on the web is the most valuable feature. It's a very simple tool. If you can use something simple and visual, you should be able to use the model as well in Signavio. It has the ability, for example, to track versioning control, so if you make updates to the processes, you have the ability to track the versions as well.""The formatting features are quite good because you can create very complex models, but you can easily clean them up so that they look very nice.""This product has helped us to work within standards for process planning.""The most valuable feature is the glossary. It is really nice because all of the information is centralized, and that is a big help to the company.""In my opinion, the most valuable feature is the editor and its ease of use, and when people are looking at it, they can make comments about changes that need to be made.""It is a scalable solution.""The features I find most valuable are ease of use and the Collaboration Hub.""One of the most valuable features is ease of use which has really been a good thing to put into the business. People like tools that they can just pick up and use straight-away."

Cons
"I would like to have a feature for audit logging, audit logs and audit log management. And some history of use for the audit logs.""Documentation can be improved.""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.""The solution could use some enhancements like adding connectors, improving forms and having a mobile app, but everything is an enhancement rather than a flaw.""Camunda Platform's customer support could be improved because their response is quite slow.""The user interface needs improvement. It should be more tailored to the end-user and offer a better user experience design over the user interface itself.""If there were some industry templates it would have helped significantly, because it is similar to a process map for a domain. That is what we are currently creating, a domain-relevant process map.""The only drawback is the time that it takes to have a complete set of workflows implemented on the Camunda platform."

"For me, given I've got a lot of experience working with BPMN and other process management tools, in terms of the interface, I think there's a little bit more that can be improved to match what the conventional BPMN offers. I've been constantly trying to give this feedback to Signavio, to let them know that it needs to be more coherent with the original BPMN version of the stencil.""The user administration, the user-group administration, and the license models need improvement.""The price can be made cheaper.""It would be beneficial to have a defined leveling or hierarchy system to facilitate better understanding and analysis. More openness and flexibility would enhance its capabilities.""I would like to have the option to select the color of items and subgroups in the glossary because right now it is fixed.""I think the intuitive handling is an issue which they should be more focused on, especially as we have issues with the glossary. If you want to implement Signavio within procedures in contact with other software, it's quite difficult to integrate and you will have several points where you have to double and triple the work, because you cannot maintain the data centrally. With other solutions, we can integrate it and have only one data transfer, to import and export with other solutions. A glossary is still limiting us.""Signavio Process Manager needs to have an integrated document management system to better work with processes that rely heavily on documents and document flows.""Technical support has been somewhat challenging; there hasn't been much visibility on how to create a ticket or integrate with SAP."
