Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""The flexibility characteristic in a BPMS, through BPMN and DMN, is undoubtedly the most interesting feature for our business.""The flexibility is great.""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.""We can share, discuss, and develop the model together — from a distance. It's really helped us during these times of isolation.""It is very user-friendly compared to IBM BPM. It's much simpler – it's more streamlined. That means even non-technical departments can use it.""Camunda's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with different products.""I can use any other tools to create services and the UI, and then use them together with the Camunda BPMN engine."

"Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes.""One of the most valuable features of Oracle BPM is the workflow itself. It is quite intuitive.""The solution provides extensive functionalities.""We selected this solution not only for the BPM but for the entire package.""One of the most valuable features is its user-friendly API, which simplifies the implementation of workflows, such as managing inbox tasks for specific users within BPM profiles.""The processor management system is quite fast and scalable. We have 10 developers using this solution and it supports 25,000 users.""I find the data lineage features most valuable.""It has developmental accelerators, which allow for virtually any customization needs which you may require."

Cons
"It lacks some preset features and configurations which would make it more plug-and-play for customers.""While it's very scalable, it would be great if auto-scaling capabilities were added to it... one area that really could help out would be to have dynamic resizing of the cluster. Right now, you have to do capacity planning.""I think it would be important to internationalize the Cockpit and the Admin as well as with the Tasklist.""The migration strategy needs to be improved.""We're trying to put the people from the business to do it. We are using APIs, and we have open APIs to define our APIs and the request-response that each call requires and sends. So, to base the mapping on that, there was nothing to help. I know that with some tools, such as Oracle tools, you can see the input and expected output. With drag and drop, you can take one property from the left and drag it to the right, and it does all the mapping itself, but that's not the case with Camunda. So, for me, this is something that can be improved.""The support offered by the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""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.""Initial setup can be quite complex."

More Camunda Cons →

"It could have easier administration. It takes time to configure and deploy.""Pricing is an area that could use improvement.""Existing APIs in the product need to be fine-tuned, made more robust and flexible for adoption.""Oracle BPM could probably be improved with respect to the cost. When you are using this product, it'll be a bit costlier for the ROA. I think they should do some discounts on these products, especially for the licenses.""The product must reduce its cost.""Every time we roll out a new version of processes, we have to migrate to a new process. The process of this migration was not very smooth. We later decided that it would be easier for us to stop all processes, deploy a new version and then restart.""Their Case Management set of features is severely lacking and should be a target for immediate improvement dealing with unpredictable processes inside of organizations.""Oracle BPM is hard to configure."
