We cannot expect major customer support.
AWS provides the best support, followed by Microsoft, and then Google.
They provide better support for the enterprise edition.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score

Camunda provides scalable solutions with technologies like Spring Boot and Kubernetes, though database configuration may present challenges for some users.
There is no direct scalability option.
If I rate scalability from one to ten, I would probably give it a six.
Camunda offers a high level of scalability, especially when using its SaaS model, which manages and scales implementations automatically.
It allows for easy scaling, especially with ECS service configurations.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.0
Bizagi is generally reliable but experiences occasional freezes, slow loading, and performance issues, especially with large processes or updates.
Sentiment score
7.8
Camunda is praised for stability and reliability, with minor integration challenges and occasional bugs, rated 7-10 by users.
There haven't been any significant outages in my experience with Camunda.
 

Room For Improvement

Bizagi struggles with performance, licensing complexity, and inadequate integrations, hindering workflow efficiency, collaboration, and user experience.
Camunda's platform faces user dissatisfaction due to poor user-friendliness, documentation, performance, and costly licensing, needing significant improvements.
For more mature environments, the integration to live systems is lacking, which affects its applicability.
Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased.
More open documentation would be beneficial to understand the deployment process better and facilitate easier setup.
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.
 

Setup Cost

Bizagi provides a free modeling version, pricier enterprise features, and cloud options; smaller organizations find it valuable.
Camunda provides cost-effective enterprise licenses, though costs can rise with usage, posing concerns for smaller companies.
Bizagi's pricing is very aggressive, and it was one of the reasons we chose it.
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

Bizagi offers an intuitive interface, robust automation, strong integration, and low-code environment, enhancing process management and visualization.
Camunda offers flexible, lightweight architecture supporting BPMN, CMMN, and DMN, with user-friendly, non-programmer interfaces and seamless integration.
It is open source.
The user interface is very good, making it easy for business people to understand.
ECS also allows for horizontal scalability with thresholds that can be configured for CPU or memory.

Paparao Nadipineni - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables budget review efficiency with open source advantages and workflow orchestration
Definitely, right now, it is purely open source, and we don't have much community support. If they add a few more capabilities like AIML and DocGen AI, these features would be good. Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased. Otherwise, people cannot onboard that particular technology easily.
FABIO NAGAO - PeerSpot reviewer
Reduces costs with hardware abstraction and simplifies scaling
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. I have to choose between monitoring CPU or memory to scale my solution. Not every software is built for deployment as a container service, although the current architecture trend is changing this.
