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.

Offers good flexibility to users

Improvements are required in the tool licensing area as it is a bit expensive. The tool's user interface needs improvement. If you don't know the tool as a beginner, it is very hard for you to design the workflow. The interface is actually quite confusing. There are a lot of places we need to configure here and there since there are multiple locations involved. The features or functions available are good enough for me to implement for my business activities. The tool can include topics like AI. I encountered an issue with the tool during the deployment into production. The server itself experienced a slowness-related issue caused by the configuration, where the resources were not enough for TIBCO, not because of the physical server. I raised a ticket with the support team and got some advice from them. I then went to study the server configuration, and finally, I found out that there will be a need to increase the threats in order for the server to process the multiple parallel incoming requests.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Camunda Platform is better than IBM BPM, and Azure. It is more elaborate."

"It is an absolutely stable solution."

"The UI is very user-friendly compared to other products. The native, vanilla UI is very interesting and intuitive to use. It's user-friendly when it comes to modernizing a business process."

"Camunda's process diagram creation and deployment is very easy."

"The most valuable feature is that, with a visual system, you can try to have a process client before beginning the programming for the application."

"Camunda serves as an automation library and provides lightweight deployment to the cloud."

"It has an open BPM"

"It is a scalable product. I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten."

More Camunda pros

"The setup cost is definitely reasonable."

"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward."

Cons

"The user interface needs some polishing because it is too technical for end-users to use it."

"I would like to see the forms engine available in the open-source version of this solution."

"In the latest version, there are certain workflow nodes that are missing. Camunda should bring those back, or rather, develop them quickly."

"The deployment model could be improved for easier implementation. More open documentation would be beneficial to understand the deployment process better and facilitate easier setup."

"I don't like the UI of the Camunda Platform, I have found the Signavio solution to be much better for me to create the process designs and execute them. Additionally, I have found the tools in the Camunda Platform are not compatible with some of my other tools. They should improve this in the future."

"Process interfaces between diagrams could be improved."

"Collaborations and process documentation in Camunda Platform are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."

"Camunda needs to improve its user interface for low-code development and provide more user interface options beyond the basic workflow."

More Camunda cons

"The interface is actually quite confusing."

"An artificial intelligence feature that evaluates the quality of the code developed with one click would definitely be good."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While the license isn't budget-friendly, careful consideration and calculated planning for a significant number of licenses can make it more cost-effective."

"We use the free version."

"Cheaper licensing and resources than competitors"

"We're using the free version. We used the Enterprise version for some time. If I compare free versus what we paid at that time, the Enterprise version costs a lot. For the additional functionality that we got with the Enterprise version, it was too costly."

"Camunda is much cheaper."

"Compared to other software, Camunda Platform is quite cost-effective."

"We pay for the license of this solution annually."

"The product is expensive for a small or medium-sized company."

More Camunda pricing and cost advice

"For my company, the tool costs about 2,0,000 Euros for three years...If one is bad and ten is good, I rate the price as one out of ten."
