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.
Ahmed-Ragab - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior DevOps & Release Management Engineer at EBC
Facilitates task management with effective approval processes and modern integration capabilities
It facilitates processes by sending notifications to relevant individuals who need to take action regarding requests. There is a very good approval hierarchy in place. Ivanti Automation significantly simplifies IT infrastructure processes, handling access requests and facilitating various employee requests. It is also easy to integrate with many other tools, like Nintex and Azure DevOps, using APIs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform's approach to BPMN modeling is straightforward and versatile, making it easy to adopt and use effectively."
"Before Camunda, we had a lot of people interacting with the invoice daily, and with Camunda, those people are now handling only more complex checks and validations, and our processing time for an invoice is reduced from about 30 days to 10 days with about 70% saving of time."
"The ease with which I can define workflows is most valuable."
"It is quite easy to build a simple process without any knowledge of programming."
"The solution is useful for small projects."
"We have been able to save costs using this solution compared to the product we used before."
"It is a scalable product. I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten."
"The documentation and all that they have done is just splendid."
"There is a very good approval hierarchy in place."
"It's easy for the IT admins at the company to use, it isn't hard to understand, and there are lots of features you can use out of the box."
"It's easy for the IT admins at the company to use. It isn't hard to understand and there are lots of features you can use out of the box. If a feature isn't available in Ivanti Automation, you can always script it."
"The most valuable feature of Ivanti Automation is the opportunity to use more or less any kind of scripting software."
"Ivanti Automation significantly simplifies IT infrastructure processes, handling access requests and facilitating various employee requests."
 

Cons

"If Camunda could develop something that creates user forms that would be a great feature to have. They also need to improve the UI."
"The setup process is a drawback as it has many dependencies, which affects our ability to migrate to Windows eleven due to security concerns."
"Collaborations and process documentation in Camunda Platform are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"When trying to design rule tables the solutions graphical user interface could improve, it could be more user friendly."
"It would be helpful if the solution had additional out-of-the-box activities."
"It would be helpful to have more readily available use cases on the internet. Camunda's documentation feels less comprehensive."
"There should be a multi-tenant solution for the platform where it supports multiple organizations on one platform instead of having to spin up multiple clusters for each organization. There should be an easy way to integrate different departments into one platform without having to operate multiple platforms. The operations should be easier with the enterprise solution. It should not create more overhead for the operations people."
"Stability-wise, Camunda is good, but sometimes task queries get very slow when we have a large number of tasks."
"Their cloud relay feature needs to improve to compete with other products in cloud solutions like Azure and AWS."
"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."
"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."
"Their cloud relay feature needs to improve to compete with other products in cloud solutions like Azure and AWS. It should be easier to deploy or provision images in the cloud with Ivanti Automation. Better Azure integration would also help."
"Ivanti Automation should deliver more fixed templates for standard use cases or standard procedures."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Camunda's pricing is good."
"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 use a community version."
"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."
"Cheaper licensing and resources than competitors"
"I tried to get some information about buying the license for the solution, but I found it kind of hard to understand the business model."
"When compared with the proprietary products, the pricing costs are much less, even though it is an enterprise edition."
"There is an open-source version available, that in its core features (workflow and decision engine, modeler) is exactly the same as in the enterprise version."
"My customers do direct sales with Ivanti, and they complain that Ivanti Automation is more expensive than other solutions."
