We performed a comparison between ADONIS, Camunda, and IBM BPM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."The best features of the system include good analytics for business processes including the calculation of time and cost."
"We haven't ever needed to take service breaks and we can scale it throughout our company without any problem."
"It's easy to handle the solution thanks to being drag and drop"
"It is a stable solution."
"It seems that the process mapping and modeling features are well and thoroughly covered."
"It's a very complete solution."
"The product is useful for designing business processes and for repositories."
"One reason we selected Camunda or Cloud/DB is that it comes with the support of the BPMN notation, which helps to define processes in a standard manner. Another reason was that Camunda Cloud, as the name says, is designed for a new cloud era."
"It's user friendly, much better than most tools I have seen."
"We have the ability to modify the product if we need to, and that comes in handy whenever we need to add new functionality and features."
"We can share, discuss, and develop the model together — from a distance. It's really helped us during these times of isolation."
"We are documenting all of the processors and VPN. Then we are sharing it with our business users."
"When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."
"I like everything about the entire BPM that comes with the BPM suite."
"The flexibility characteristic in a BPMS, through BPMN and DMN, is undoubtedly the most interesting feature for our business."
"It has reduced a lot of manual errors and processes."
"We use the solution to develop and deliver products."
"With the Process Center, I can go to one place and view what all the environments are doing."
"The most valuable features are the integration capabilities - BPM can connect with almost any legacy or advanced system."
"The most valuable feature for the organization is the Document Store."
"It provides value and simplifies processes."
"Some of the features that I like the most are team management and process performance. They are both very useful and very powerful with regard to the workflow."
"The system integration layer is valuable because this enables an organization to create a single point where all the key organizational master data is held in different IT applications across different functions, that can be accessed and updated."
"When you update a page, the information on the quick links sidebar on the left side doesn't stay in the same place. It moves down, so you have to scroll to find it. That's not very user-friendly."
"If there's no WiFi connection, you can't access ADONIS."
"We have to use a different solution to automate our business processes."
"This solution would be improved if 24/7 support were available."
"There is a function to check if the model BPMN is being used correctly, but the report from the check is not always very clear."
"Rearranging things to get information from the objects and the model together to get a report out of them could be done better."
"The solution is in English and we have added certain parts in Russian as this is easier for our students. It would be useful to have the system in Russian."
"The only drawback is the time that it takes to have a complete set of workflows implemented on the Camunda platform."
"There should be a multi-tenant solution for the platform where it supports multiple organizations on one platform instead of having to spin up multiple clusters for each organization. There should be an easy way to integrate different departments into one platform without having to operate multiple platforms. The operations should be easier with the enterprise solution. It should not create more overhead for the operations people."
"When addressing a complex and extensive process, the domain it belongs to, be it banking, healthcare, or HR, requires widespread access."
"As we experienced some difficulties in the beginning, deployment took almost a month."
"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."
"The initial set up could be simplified, it's complex."
"Customization and tech stack could be up-to-date."
"I have faced problems in bringing up the Cockpit in terms of GUI processes. I think that there is room for improvement in those areas."
"From the testing perspective and minor enhancements perspective, customization is something that is a little tedious as compared to new tools. In addition, various open-source tools that are available are not working with IBM BPM."
"There are a few areas, like triggering mechanisms, externally exposed variables, and changing its values."
"The price and the overall installation process could be improved."
"The solution can improve integration with SAP, CRM, and Salesforce, which is not capital-intensive."
"You must have good experience to work with it. It is not that easy. Its installation is complex, especially in the new version for business automation, and it could be improved. It has a safety application embedded inside it, and you need to do a lot of configuration to install it. I have been working for two days to resolve an issue."
"The engine itself tends to accumulate a lot of data that needs to be cleaned up, and that's the kind of thing that keeps it from, in some scenarios, scaling as much as it needs to. And then, when you're building solutions, if you're not careful to keep the screens from being associated with too much data, if you're going to just do things the way that a lot of people would just assume that they can do, without having experience of having made those mistakes before, it will accumulate a lot of data, and that will cause it to perform very badly."
"IBM BPM can improve the dashboards and reports. It only has two dashboards, and reporting is very difficult to build."
"We would appreciate more user-friendly definitions of processes with a more user-friendly interface for documenting processes."
