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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest benefit of using the product is identifying the issues, enabling a more flexible working method."
"We are documenting all of the processors and VPN. Then we are sharing it with our business users."
"Camunda seems to have a lot of traction, maturity, and stability. It also matches the need for agile development."
"Easy to use and easy to integrate into the products and applications we provide for our customers."
"Camunda's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with different products."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to share the logic within the rules engine with the business, so you can put it up for everybody to read."
"Camunda is the best among similar solutions like JBPM and Activiti."
"The solution is easily compatible with HTML forms and HTML language programming and that is the most significant part."
"It is open-source. It supports microservice orchestration. This is what we are really interested in. We can customize our products depending on the use cases."
 

Cons

"The platform's initial setup process could be better."
"I think it would be important to internationalize the Cockpit and the Admin as well as with the Tasklist."
"The cockpit features of the Camunda Platform can be improved to make it a bit more user-friendly, in terms of providing a bit more user experience for non-technical users. There could be some additional documentation added."
"The product's initial setup phase is difficult for beginners."
"I think that Camunda can try to do better when it comes to solving the complexities of all the products in its software stack."
"If they could build some scripts or some configuration to get it up and running in a Docker environment, that would be good. I didn't find anything when on Docker, however, maybe they have something and I didn't see it yet."
"Process interfaces between diagrams could be improved."
"The migration strategy needs to be improved."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is good for a startup. When we started, its price was fair, but the way we are using it to orchestrate microservices makes it expensive. When you are growing as a company, you would have more microservices, and you would have more users. There is an exponential effect when you are growing in terms of the number of conditions, processes, and users because they bill you per process. So, the price was increasing very quickly for us, and it was very difficult."
"We're using the open-source version for now."
"We are using the open-source version of this solution."
"Its price is decent. Everything is included in the license. The Community version is also good to start with. We are using the Community version."
"We use the free version."
"Compared to other software, Camunda Platform is quite cost-effective."
"There were some features that were only available in the paid version."
"Licensing costs are anywhere from $80,000 to $100,000 USD per year."
