Featured Reviews

CristianoGomes - PeerSpot reviewer
Owner at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
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.
Nishant Thakkar - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Analyst at WTW
Data visualization and workflow efficiency improve with automated features
I do not have a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer, and I was not offered a gift card or incentive for this review. We use other tech products such as Microsoft Excel and Slack. We can use my real name when publishing my review, along with my real company name. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Claude an 8.

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."
"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 very user-friendly compared to IBM BPM. It's much simpler – it's more streamlined. That means even non-technical departments can use it."
"Camunda's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with different products."
"It has been a stable solution so far since it meets our needs, including data modeling, which we need to do before we embark on analyzing and optimizing the business processes."
"The UI is very user-friendly compared to other products. The native, vanilla UI is very interesting and intuitive to use. It's user-friendly when it comes to modernizing a business process."
"The architecture is good because it's a headless workflow. I can create my own frontend, and it's fully API-based."
"The solution is useful for small projects."
"Claude saves me significant time when conducting research or writing quick Python scripts."
"Overall, I rate Claude nine out of ten."
"Claude has positively impacted my organization, as evident from the metrics which show productivity doubling and turnaround time being cut in half."
 

Cons

"The user interface needs some polishing because it is too technical for end-users to use it."
"It has a Postgres database at the backend, and it is very difficult to scale if you increase the number of processes running. We did hit some barriers. We were able to overcome them, but it was a problem. Camunda has another product called Camunda Cloud, which supposedly doesn't have the same scalability problems, but we are not using Camunda Cloud because the set of features is smaller than Camunda On-Premises. So, its scalability can be improved. Because it has a single database, it is more difficult to scale if you have a huge success."
"Customization and tech stack could be up-to-date."
"It's costly and not accessible for small enterprises or startups. It would be great if Camunda offered a tier plan for smaller companies."
"When trying to design rule tables the solutions graphical user interface could improve, it could be more user friendly."
"I don't like the UI of the Camunda Platform, I have found the Signavio solution to be much better for me to create the process designs and execute them. Additionally, I have found the tools in the Camunda Platform are not compatible with some of my other tools. They should improve this in the future."
"The support offered by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"In terms of features, it meets my needs, but I would like Camunda to have an office in Brazil and provide training in Portuguese. They should provide regional support and training courses in Portuguese."
"The product could be improved by offering automatic integration with other solutions, such as the ability to read Excel or text files and automate processes this way."
"The foundational model would have to be improved to be comparable to ChatGPT for everyday use cases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think Camunda BPM can improve their licensing costs. It isn't easy to find clients with Camunda BPM licenses mainly because it's quite expensive."
"We use the open-source version, which can be used at no cost."
"We use the free version."
"There were some features that were only available in the paid 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."
"We're using the free version. We used the Enterprise version for some time. If I compare free versus what we paid at that time, the Enterprise version costs a lot. For the additional functionality that we got with the Enterprise version, it was too costly."
"Camunda has a free service as well as a commercial service. We are using the free service."
"We are using the community version. There is no licensing cost."
