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.
Naresh Rayakwar - PeerSpot reviewer
Stable platform with a straightforward setup process
The initial setup process is straightforward. It usually takes a day if all the prerequisites are met. It requires correctly configuring the property file. The process is particularly uncomplicated if the deployment is on a standalone system. However, in a clustered environment, the property file needs to be deployed on each server with precise sequencing, following the guidelines provided by the system. The installation script is then executed to install the overall product. The deployment time depends on different use cases and requires one executive to work on it. The level of maintenance support is also based on the use cases. Two executives can easily maintain the product for a simple vanilla setup with normal use cases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"On a scale of one to ten, I rate ECS a ten out of ten."
"Its flexibility stands out as the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features are that it's lightweight, can be embedded in existing Java code, and keeps track of the workflow state and the instances that we need."
"There's this graphic that tells you how many lines or how many tickets are in each step. In that way, you know where you stand. I find this feature very valuable."
"The visibility – the diagrams you create – and then being able to automate based on them are valuable features. It's easy to explain and comprehend, and the integration aspects are valuable."
"When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."
"The flexibility characteristic in a BPMS, through BPMN and DMN, is undoubtedly the most interesting feature for our business."
"The graphical interface is very beneficial."
"The platform allows us to create workflows easily."
 

Cons

"Camunda could be improved by making it easier to modify a process. You can program it to follow a process, but it is difficult to modify the process when the application is in use. It could also be improved by making it easier to use the visual platform without needing to be informed on that. Sometimes, we programmers haven't used it in the past, and it's a bit difficult to learn it."
"When building interfaces, there are limited tools to work with, especially when dealing with different types of tasks, such as user tasks and system tasks."
"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."
"I think that Camunda can try to do better when it comes to solving the complexities of all the products in its software stack."
"It is not difficult to change existing processes. The difficulty was in integration, for example, to call an external web API, and in the security capabilities, to use a vault for secrets. That was difficult."
"The solution's pricing and scalability could be improved."
"The initial setup can be complex for business users."
"I would like to have a feature for audit logging, audit logs and audit log management. And some history of use for the audit logs."
"Currently, the libraries are more specific to a few network equipment providers. They could introduce more libraries from different vendors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The product's price depends on the number of processes that need to be automated or where the orchestration part needs to be used. The product is affordable for medium and large enterprises."
"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."
"It is less cost-prohibitive than other solutions on the market. This solution was in our price range."
"The cost of this solution is better than some competing products."
"We are using the open-source version, free of charge. We didn't bother with the enterprise features."
"Camunda has a free service as well as a commercial service. We are using the free service."
"Cheaper licensing and resources than competitors"
"They offer a subscription-based license and not a perpetual license for the platform. You have to purchase a yearly license."
