Reduces costs with hardware abstraction and simplifies scaling

Pros

"EC2 makes scaling horizontally incredibly easy, especially when working under the ECS service. "

Cons

"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."

Open-source, easy to define new processes, and easy to transition to new business process definitions

Pros

"We can easily define and deploy business processes. Camunda provides the tools that allow business people to design business processes. We don't have to have developers for it. It is so easy to use that our business people can go into the tool and model their business processes. We get time to do other things than just designing business processes."

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."

Support is good (even the basic one), documentation is readily available and matches the need for agile development

Pros

"Camunda seems to have a lot of traction, maturity, and stability. It also matches the need for agile development. "

Cons

"Probably one area I look forward to has to do with AI and how Camunda sees the AI angle on workflow. "

Supports BPMN, integrates well, and saves time

Pros

"One reason we selected Camunda or Cloud/DB is that it comes with the support of the BPMN notation, which helps to define processes in a standard manner. Another reason was that Camunda Cloud, as the name says, is designed for a new cloud era."

Cons

"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."

Product version discussed: 8.1
Allows for quick process design and implementation

Pros

"The architectural part of Camunda for workflow design is highly valuable, especially the Camunda Modeler, which allows quick process design and implementation. "

Cons

"The deployment model could be improved for easier implementation."

Process diagrams help stakeholders understand processes, and connectors enable us to standardize our integrations

Pros

"The integration with almost any language, product, and even human tasks, is valuable. It's very seamless to integrate into existing systems. It doesn't require you to rewrite a lot of your existing system. That's where it really stands out."

Cons

"While it's very scalable, it would be great if auto-scaling capabilities were added to it... one area that really could help out would be to have dynamic resizing of the cluster. Right now, you have to do capacity planning. "

Highly valuable for orchestrating complex business processes, solving many problems, and making the business side understand what we are talking about

Pros

"The BPMN diagram is valuable. For our use case of transferring money from one account to another, the connections have to be done in the traditional financial ways. There are a lot of unexpected errors and a lot of instability with this kind of system, and we are using Camunda in order to have clear flows. With BPMN, I can show a flow to my business partner, and the business team can easily understand what's going on. The technical team can understand what the implementation is, and we can model different errors and the process for recovering from these errors. "

Cons

"It has a Postgres database at the backend, and it is very difficult to scale if you increase the number of processes running. We did hit some barriers. We were able to overcome them, but it was a problem. Camunda has another product called Camunda Cloud, which supposedly doesn't have the same scalability problems, but we are not using Camunda Cloud because the set of features is smaller than Camunda On-Premises. So, its scalability can be improved. Because it has a single database, it is more difficult to scale if you have a huge success."

Java support enhances scalability with good performance and RPA capabilities

Pros

"The use of Java is a big plus for our intern developers, and Camunda scales well, as many of our departments are already using it in production with dedicated teams."

Cons

"The setup process is a drawback as it has many dependencies, which affects our ability to migrate to Windows eleven due to security concerns. "
