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.

Stable platform with a straightforward setup process
The initial setup process is straightforward. It usually takes a day if all the prerequisites are met. It requires correctly configuring the property file. The process is particularly uncomplicated if the deployment is on a standalone system. However, in a clustered environment, the property file needs to be deployed on each server with precise sequencing, following the guidelines provided by the system. The installation script is then executed to install the overall product. The deployment time depends on different use cases and requires one executive to work on it. The level of maintenance support is also based on the use cases. Two executives can easily maintain the product for a simple vanilla setup with normal use cases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The way to create workflows is straightforward, which is one of the major benefits of the Camunda platform."
"The product is stable."
"The platform's approach to BPMN modeling is straightforward and versatile, making it easy to adopt and use effectively."
"Based on other products, we've found the most appropriate results coming out from the Camunda BPM engine."
"We evaluated Appian for my current job but it's less beneficial if your aim is to have your customers at the front end, and we took the middle road when we went with Camunda and the flexibility it offers is a big advantage for us."
"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, and this solution truly fit the bill."
"The number of client implementations and cross-language capabilities to support multiple frameworks is very pluggable compared to Pega. It's also more portable."
"It is a scalable product. I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten."
"The platform allows us to create workflows easily."
 

Cons

"Especially when you use the open-source version, there are issues with performance."
"If Camunda could develop something that creates user forms that would be a great feature to have. They also need to improve the UI."
"I have faced problems in bringing up the Cockpit in terms of GUI processes. I think that there is room for improvement in those areas."
"When you have a lot of processes running, it becomes very expensive very quickly."
"It lacks some preset features and configurations which would make it more plug-and-play for customers."
"If they could build some scripts or some configuration to get it up and running in a Docker environment, that would be good. I didn't find anything when on Docker, however, maybe they have something and I didn't see it yet."
"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."
"When you search for Camunda BPM resources or books on how to utilize Camunda BPM, it is lacking."
"Currently, the libraries are more specific to a few network equipment providers. They could introduce more libraries from different vendors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"We use the open-source version, which can be used at no cost."
"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"We have an annual subscription to this solution."
"The open-source version of the product is free to use."
"It is less cost-prohibitive than other solutions on the market. This solution was in our price range."
"Licensing costs are anywhere from $80,000 to $100,000 USD per year."
"The evaluation of my customers on pricing is that it is reasonable."
"They offer a subscription-based license and not a perpetual license for the platform. You have to purchase a yearly license."
