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

"It's user friendly, much better than most tools I have seen."

"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 most valuable feature of Camunda Platform is its Microservices architecture, which is easily integrable with APIs."

"I've found the active community most valuable but it also provides you with a lot of other features."

"It has been a stable solution so far since it meets our needs, including data modeling, which we need to do before we embark on analyzing and optimizing the business processes."

"The platform's approach to BPMN modeling is straightforward and versatile, making it easy to adopt and use effectively."

"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."

More Camunda pros

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

"The setup cost is definitely reasonable."

Cons

"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."

"Customization and tech stack could be up-to-date."

"The setup process is a drawback as it has many dependencies, which affects our ability to migrate to Windows eleven due to security concerns."

"As we experienced some difficulties in the beginning, deployment took almost a month."

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

"The product's initial setup phase is difficult for beginners."

"Process interfaces between diagrams could be improved."

"Initially, installation was challenging, but recent improvements have made it much easier."

More Camunda cons

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

"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

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

"We are using the open-source version of this solution."

"The price is competitive with products like Bonitasoft and RHPAM (Red Hat Process Automation Manager). We have two versions of Camunda. The first version was open source, without support, but then we got a supported version."

"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."

"Cheaper licensing and resources than competitors"

"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."

"The open-source version of the product is free to use."

"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."

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."
