We performed a comparison between Apache Airflow, Bizagi, and Camunda 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 feature is the customization."
"Its user-friendly interface makes it straightforward to operate, offering a plethora of features for data preparation, buffering, and format conversion."
"The solution's UI allows me to collect all the information and see the code lines."
"Every feature in Apache Airflow is valuable. The number of operators and features I've used are mainly related to connectivity services and integrated services because I primarily work with GCP."
"The solution is quite configurable so it is easy to code within a configuration kind of environment."
"The user interface for monitoring and managing workflows has been excellent, particularly in the latest version. c"
"The product is stable."
"One of its most valuable features is the graphical user interface, providing a visual representation of the pipeline status, successes, failures, and informative developer messages."
"Bizagi is a very useful tool because it does not require you to program. The user logic is very easy to understand even for people who are not engineers or developers."
"The approval process is simple."
"Agility is most valuable because we can develop so much faster than other tools. We can make requirements, develop, and go out to production much faster. So, agility in the software cycle is most valuable."
"The user logic is very easy to understand, even for people who are not engineers nor developers."
"It automates a completely manual, complicated process."
"Great mapping feature that's easy to use."
"The documentation capabilities are very good. Very structured documents and process versions are valuable features, and being able to communicate that to our customers is also a very good feature. It has a good balance between the effort and the result. So, you don't need to be too detailed. You can document while you are modeling, which is a very good feature."
"The product enables the users to automate the processes and provides a good user experience."
"The BPMN diagram is valuable. For our use case of transferring money from one account to another, the connections have to be done in the traditional financial ways. There are a lot of unexpected errors and a lot of instability with this kind of system, and we are using Camunda in order to have clear flows. With BPMN, I can show a flow to my business partner, and the business team can easily understand what's going on. The technical team can understand what the implementation is, and we can model different errors and the process for recovering from these errors."
"I love that Camunda is a very developer-friendly platform, and my customers have evaluated the pricing as reasonable."
"It's user friendly, much better than most tools I have seen."
", Camunda can be a powerful tool to work with when used in an optimized and well-implemented manner."
"The modeler is useful for creating the flow. The way to access the data through their REST API is also valuable. This is what we're using right now."
"The number of client implementations and cross-language capabilities to support multiple frameworks is very pluggable compared to Pega. It's also more portable."
"The most valuable feature is the scheduling."
"It is an absolutely stable solution."
"The dashboard is connected into the BPM flow that could be improved."
"The dashboards could be enhanced."
"The platform's stability needs improvement, particularly regarding occasional interruptions due to networking issues."
"It would be beneficial to improve the pricing structure."
"There is a need for more features on experimental evolution steps."
"Apache Airflow should have better integration with cloud platforms."
"There is an area for improvement in onboarding new people. They should make it simple for newcomers. Else, we have to put a senior engineer to operate it."
"I want to see Apache Airflow have more integrations with more production-based databases since it is an area where the product lacks currently."
"Its price can be improved. The price is high for the application as well as for maintaining and developing applications. When you develop, for example, a BPM, you need to pay a lot for Bizagi."
"Agriculture, Industry."
"The product must make automation easier."
"The product used to have a simulation feature, which I had used quite often. However, it's since been discontinued. It might have originally been a paid feature. It would be nice if they could bring it back and offer it for free."
"It works slowly on the cloud, sometimes."
"One thing that I don't like very much is related to integration: we have to develop some connectors... I would need a connector that connects to a REST service and that uses client ID in secret... They provide the means to develop a connector and use it, but they should implement this because REST services are among the most used protocols for web services."
"Bizagi doesn't have integrations with other solutions, such as ERP systems. In the industry and your company, you have a lot of systems with which you need to integrate, but Bizagi doesn't have such integrations, which makes it very difficult. Its scalability can also be improved. It is good for a startup, but when you need something more complex, it is not good."
"It would be helpful if they added some extra features in the next update."
"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."
"I'm from the .NET world and I would like to use it, rather than Java."
"An improvement would be to support Angular 2 instead of AngularJS, which is quite old."
"Documentation can be improved."
"Especially when you use the open-source version, there are issues with performance."
"The documentation could use improvement."
"The migration strategy needs to be improved."
"Like all BPM tools, they're very bad with proprietary UIs. In general, anyone who uses BPM tools should not expect to use their proprietary UI."
