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.
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

"The platform's approach to BPMN modeling is straightforward and versatile, making it easy to adopt and use effectively."
"The flexibility characteristic in a BPMS, through BPMN and DMN, is undoubtedly the most interesting feature for our business."
"It is an absolutely stable solution."
"Being able to use a Java-based solution makes the product flexible."
"When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."
"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."
"We have a lot of users, almost 1,800, and we needed something affordable, stable and something that could be used by a large financial company. This solution truly fit the bill."
"Camunda is a scalable product."
"The platform allows us to create workflows easily."
 

Cons

"Initial setup can be quite complex."
"I think it would be important to internationalize the Cockpit and the Admin as well as with the Tasklist."
"The deployment model could be improved for easier implementation."
"They could provide more documentation regarding the integration of different programming languages."
"Camunda Platform's customer support could be improved because their response is quite slow."
"We have faced problems with the performance."
"Initially, installation was challenging, but recent improvements have made it much easier."
"The user interface needs improvement. It should be more tailored to the end-user and offer a better user experience design over the user interface itself."
"Currently, the libraries are more specific to a few network equipment providers. They could introduce more libraries from different vendors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Camunda is a cheaply priced product, making it one of its major USPs."
"Camunda has a free service as well as a commercial service. We are using the free service."
"I think Camunda BPM can improve their licensing costs. It isn't easy to find clients with Camunda BPM licenses mainly because it's quite expensive."
"We pay for the license of this solution annually."
"We are using the community version. There is no licensing cost."
"The most attractive feature of the product is that it is open source."
"The product is expensive for a small or medium-sized company."
"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."
"They offer a subscription-based license and not a perpetual license for the platform. You have to purchase a yearly license."
