They have that REST layer, REST APIs layer that makes it easy to integrate and make it part of a microservices ecosystem and APIs.

Camunda is highly rated for stability, with minimal bugs, and performs efficiently in various production environments even under load.
Sentiment score
8.1
Studio Creatio is praised for its stability and reliability, with users attributing occasional issues to external factors.
There haven't been any significant outages in my experience with Camunda.
We were not really concerned about the performance on the process itself because it was super simple, super straightforward, and it did not present itself as a bottleneck, nor did we feel it was adding additional time in the execution.
 

Room For Improvement

Camunda needs better customization, programming language integration, scalability, and AWS support, with enhanced documentation and performance improvements.
Studio Creatio needs better mobile customization, UI control, business rule flexibility, accurate translations, technical documentation, and improved performance for large processes.
Since they made the move to cloud deployment in a more SaaS-oriented way, they do not invest too much in the community version.
There is an issue where, in some situations, I need to scale up by observing both CPU and memory usage of containers, yet under the current options available at Amazon, this is not possible.
More open documentation would be beneficial to understand the deployment process better and facilitate easier setup.
 

Setup Cost

Camunda's pricing is competitive, but costly for small businesses; enterprise edition offers advanced features and support options.
<p>Creatio offers flexible, subscription-based automation plans ranging from $25 to $85 per user per month, depending on business size and needs, with Creatio AI included in all tiers.</p>
For some services, such as hosting databases, Google is really expensive.
There is a licensing cost for using the SaaS model and Enterprise edition of Camunda.
 

Valuable Features

Camunda is valued for its flexibility, open-source customization, user-friendly interface, and effective management of complex processes.
Studio Creatio provides configurable CRM, low-code/no-code platforms, and process management with automation, scalability, and superb business support features.
ECS also allows for horizontal scalability with thresholds that can be configured for CPU or memory.
Camunda's support for BPMN 2.0 is a great advantage because it allows us to have a common language to discuss technology and business in the same perspective.
The biggest difference between Camunda and Bonita might be that Camunda is simpler and more flexible for setting.

Featured Reviews

CristianoGomes - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Anatolii Vovniuk - PeerSpot reviewer
Customizable, easy to use, and has good built-in dashboards
The tool is available on the cloud as well as on-premise. The ease of setup depends on the complexity of the project. In most cases, we just connect and work. We must create our own team and find a partner to build our own application. If we need to create something new, it will take time. I rate the ease of setup of the cloud version a ten out of ten. However, I would rate the ease of setup of the on-premise version a five or six out of ten. The on-premise version takes longer to deploy. The cloud version can be deployed within minutes. We receive a license key and start working. If all the components are ready, we can deploy the on-premise version within ten days.
