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.
Venkat Sivaprakash - PeerSpot reviewer
Management Consultant at Accenture
Has significantly improved efficiency in finance and operations while reducing turnaround time and defects
The most valuable features include process task mining where UiPath Automation Ops records tasks performed on the computer and generates output in the form of a process map and procedural document. It captures all clicks made, making documentation easier. Additional features include image processing, PDF file processing, Excel file input processing, data calculations, and cross-application data movement. Automation Cloud is a comprehensive solution, while UiPath Automation Ops handles governance, coding standards, and user access management. Automation Ops is primarily used by developers and support teams, whereas Automation Cloud is used for implementation and development.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One valuable feature of the solution is its flexibility."
"I see improvements with Camunda mainly in quality and service, as the best return on investment is less work for internal teams and enhanced value for end customers, allowing less experienced personnel to effectively work with Camunda and understand their responsibilities, alleviating dependence on specific knowledgeable employees."
"Camunda Platform is better than IBM BPM, and Azure; it is more elaborate, divided across the platform with integration separated from the UI and internal work, and it also integrates well."
"I have seen a return on investment where we have fewer resources in development because of Camunda, which saves us approximately 15% in development resources."
"The way to create workflows is straightforward, which is one of the major benefits of the Camunda platform."
"Camunda is very capable of running complex orchestrations and end-to-end business processes, and the lending use case is somewhat complex, yet Camunda made it very easy and handy to implement."
"Being able to use a Java-based solution makes the product flexible."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use and the ability to streamline a process model on a BPM diagram."
"The solution offers benefits including defect reduction, improved lead time, reduced turnaround time, decreased average handle time, increased productivity, full-time employee releases, bottom-line cost savings, and enhanced customer experience."
 

Cons

"In Camunda, I believe the process mining side has room for improvement."
"Without a proper frontend, the business cannot effectively use the platform."
"They could provide more documentation regarding the integration of different programming languages."
"The migration strategy needs to be improved."
"The product's initial setup phase is difficult for beginners."
"I'm from the .NET world and I would like to use it, rather than Java."
"It's costly and not accessible for small enterprises or startups. It would be great if Camunda offered a tier plan for smaller companies."
"The initial setup can be complex for business users."
"Bot task loading needs improvement, though I cannot provide detailed information about this aspect."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Camunda Platform is an open-source product."
"The open-source version of the product is free to use."
"Generally, the price could be better, as well as the licensing fees."
"The most attractive feature of the product is that it is open source."
"The license is quite expensive, which is why we went with the community version."
"We are using the community version. There is no licensing cost."
"Camunda is much cheaper."
"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."
