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.
Ross Macadam - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at iicon ltd
Has faced challenges adapting to evolving capture methods and competitive integrations
It's difficult to say what I'd improve in Tungsten TotalAgility because we haven't been actively marketing that particular product in the last probably six to nine months. The speed of product development means that my experience with it is likely out of date in terms of the product suite capabilities. The difficulty with customers nowadays is that they are subject to the winds of change in terms of the adoption of cloud technologies and the offerings those cloud technologies bring. Microsoft, for instance, is rapidly filling in the spaces between various product areas that other vendors typically owned. That makes it difficult for customers to settle on their functional requirements because the offers are competing in the same space. I look for more integration with mainstream subscription based platforms, more security integration, and possibly some more lifecycle management features. However, the difficulty with that is the competition with existing options that people have in their subscription library.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We like the idea of working with Cawemo because it enables us to keep on working, remotely or not. It allows us to collaborate between areas. It's easy to model and easy to use"
"When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."
"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."
"The solution is useful for small projects."
"It is an absolutely stable solution."
"It has an open BPM"
"Camunda is a scalable product."
"With this product, we have the flexibility and speed to serve customers quickly and that is important."
"This is a great product, a BPM tool with capture facilities."
"It is user-friendly and has good documentation. It's good for developing communication and has a lot of the APIs needed for this purpose. There aren't a lot of software options available from this time period; this is the only one from 2013 that has this concept of microservices."
"The tool is low code which saves you from a developer."
"Kofax is very easy to use, UI-friendly and allows easy data extraction."
"It is a stable solution; I have worked with many big companies where they scan millions of pages every year and hundreds of users are using it every day, and it is a stable application; it is reliable, there are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn’t crash or freeze."
"I think Kofax is a good product, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for document extraction or classification, or data extraction from structured and unstructured documents."
"It can be a good product for BPM; you can do BPM projects with it, do case management and capture extraction with Kofax TotalAgility, and it can also integrate quite seamlessly with third-party applications, so it is quite good."
"Its integration capabilities are valuable. It has low code/no code features. You have to do minimal coding."
 

Cons

"We're trying to put the people from the business to do it. We are using APIs, and we have open APIs to define our APIs and the request-response that each call requires and sends. So, to base the mapping on that, there was nothing to help. I know that with some tools, such as Oracle tools, you can see the input and expected output. With drag and drop, you can take one property from the left and drag it to the right, and it does all the mapping itself, but that's not the case with Camunda. So, for me, this is something that can be improved."
"The support offered by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I think Camunda is focusing too much on the SaaS offering right now and not much on improving and developing the product itself."
"Customization and tech stack could be up-to-date."
"Process interfaces between diagrams could be improved."
"The primary issue regarding the Camuto platform is its high cost of training. This is why I haven't discussed it extensively, as compared to other products that are more affordable in terms of developer training."
"The user interface needs improvement; it should be more tailored to the end-user and offer a better user experience design over the user interface itself."
"As we experienced some difficulties in the beginning, deployment took almost a month."
"Table line item extraction is not possible through Quick Capture."
"There needs to be more accessible certification and better pricing for Kofax TotalAgility."
"The pricing for Kofax TotalAgility could be more attractive, particularly the cloud version of the solution which was offered to my company. This is its area for improvement."
"It’s not truly low code yet, as every two or three projects, you will have a situation where you have to go behind the essential things."
"Kofax TotalAgility is quite vast and complex as a product. We came from Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation, then we started learning Kofax TotalAgility, so there are a lot of things that were quite straightforward in the Kofax Capture and Kofax Transformation cross-motion modules, but to do those in Kofax TotalAgility was a bit more complex or quite long-winded and could be improved. In the next release of Kofax TotalAgility, it would be good to have a straightforward low-code or no-code process because there were instances we struggled with having to put logic into a script or a .NET script, then calling that script, instead of the process being low-code, no-code."
"The form development could be improved."
"Kofax should improve its handwritten extractions."
"Room for improvement would be better OCR functionality in terms of Arabic OCR. There should be better accuracy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other software, Camunda Platform is quite cost-effective."
"Camunda Platform is an open-source product."
"While the license isn't budget-friendly, careful consideration and calculated planning for a significant number of licenses can make it more cost-effective."
"We pay for the license of this solution annually."
"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."
"We are using the community version. There is no licensing cost."
"The product is expensive for a small or medium-sized company."
"The most attractive feature of the product is that it is open source."
"The licensing cost for Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive, though I'm unable to give you the range, the sales representatives of my company say that the product is quite expensive."
"The price of this solution is less than some of the competition."
"Kofax TotalAgility is very expensive."
"It is slightly more expensive than other tools."
"It has a perpetual license. You pay once in a lifetime for the volume of scans you will do and the number of users you will have. You can have participants or regular users, and you can have developers and administrators. So, once you purchase it, it is for a lifetime, and then every year, you have to pay for the maintenance. There is an annual maintenance cost, which is about 18% of the licensing cost."
