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.

Solution Consultant at a healthcare company with 51-200 employees
Provides documentation, process mining, simulation, and automation capabilities
If customers want to change the color or the logo, they have to go through every page to verify everything is right. We have a strategic approach for the customer. I was involved in almost 100 sessions where the customers were looking for a one-time process visualization or one-time process mining, not for a long-term association with this tool. The customer's requirements are more tactical than strategic. We had some challenges during this time frame as I was with iGrafx, and electricity costs rose in Germany. One customer stopped a large deal because they had to reduce every non-invested investment due to the electricity bill rising by 500% to 800%.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Using such a solution gives our clients great flexibility and a short time to market for new product implementations."
"The most valuable feature is that, with a visual system, you can try to have a process client before beginning the programming for the application."
"My advice is try to understand and use it because it's really an amazing solution."
"Camunda seems to have a lot of traction, maturity, and stability. It also matches the need for agile development."
"We have seen that investing in a tool like Camunda is valuable, especially because it's an open-source product."
"The most valuable features are that it's lightweight, can be embedded in existing Java code, and keeps track of the workflow state and the instances that we need."
"By using Camunda, we could have the application process design, and we could quickly deploy the system to production and have the product early on the market."
"I like everything about the entire BPM that comes with the BPM suite."
"Provides a valuable BPMN feature."
"Another good feature is that the numbering of the shapes in iGrafx is much easier and more convenient, in comparison to what is found in Visio. So far I haven't found anything similar to what I have with iGrafx, in that regard."
"If you need software to help you easily design processes, make simulations, build value stream mappings, which has some LEAN features, and DMAIC support, I strongly encourage you to go forward and buy iGrafx."
"The solution's technical support is of good quality since they offer fast and seamless services."
"Finding the right symbol and creating links, horizontal and vertical are the features I use."
"We found the technical support to be helpful."
"The IDEF0 add-on solution truly integrates all the process maps through intelligent arrow name management."
"It has simplified compliance with regulations and company standards."
 

Cons

"From my point of view, there is a lot that has room for improvement."
"When addressing a complex and extensive process, the domain it belongs to, be it banking, healthcare, or HR, requires widespread access."
"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."
"Lacking in forms visualization."
"It would be helpful if the solution had additional out-of-the-box activities."
"Collaborations and process documentation in Camunda Platform are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"Process interfaces between diagrams could be improved."
"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."
"There are a few areas iGrafx which could improve, probably the biggest area would be to support iOS as well as PC, so clients don’t have to emulate PC on an iOS platform."
"I used the single license product. The entire suite can manage complex organizations, linking it with ERP, but it is not so easy to link it to a new ERP."
"They can reduce the cost of the product and make it easily accessible for consultants."
"One of the areas in the product with certain shortcomings where improvements are required includes the tool's reporting capabilities."
"With iGrafx, the implementation and the licensing were pretty complex."
"I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping."
"I would like to see a lower price, although when used correctly, you can have a good return on your investment."
"The solution could benefit from improvements to its interface. More specifically, when compared to other tools, the process modeling features lack symbols or object types that are used to represent the information or data within the process."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is good for a startup. When we started, its price was fair, but the way we are using it to orchestrate microservices makes it expensive. When you are growing as a company, you would have more microservices, and you would have more users. There is an exponential effect when you are growing in terms of the number of conditions, processes, and users because they bill you per process. So, the price was increasing very quickly for us, and it was very difficult."
"The product is expensive for a small or medium-sized company."
"The open-source version of the product is free to use."
"While the license isn't budget-friendly, careful consideration and calculated planning for a significant number of licenses can make it more cost-effective."
"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"Camunda's pricing is good."
"The evaluation of my customers on pricing is that it is reasonable."
"We're using the open-source version for now."
"Earlier, the licensing part was complex because there were so many modules and elements in the tool. Over the last one and a half years, a lot of work has gone into how the product has priced and positioned its tools in the market."
"I have heard that the solution's pricing is very competitive."
"Our license is a subscription-based model that is per user. The solution is not expensive, I believe a subscription-based model is $10 per user."
"The licensing part is one of the problems. Its licensing depends on the number of users, so it sometimes gets expensive."
"My company is trying to replace iGrafx because the license is a little bit expensive."
