Pros | ||
"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." "For an internal project, this is a solution that you can install and have up and running quite quickly." "We are documenting all of the processors and VPN. Then we are sharing it with our business users." "I've found the active community most valuable but it also provides you with a lot of other features." "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 ability to share the logic within the rules engine with the business, so you can put it up for everybody to read." "When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."

Cons | ||
"If Camunda could develop something that creates user forms that would be a great feature to have. They also need to improve the UI." "The GUI needs to be improved, with more configuration options." "When you search for Camunda BPM resources or books on how to utilize Camunda BPM, it is lacking. When it comes to Alfresco, there are thousands of resources that can help you to utilize within AWS and its Group Services. I would like to see the usage of Camunda BPM on Amazon Web Services be improved." "I would say that Camunda should actually focus on small cases as well. There's a lot of space out there, for small businesses. If they can, they should cater to them." "The user interface needs improvement. It should be more tailored to the end-user and offer a better user experience design over the user interface itself." "I would like to see the forms engine available in the open-source version of this solution." "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." "I would also like a very easy to use form builder." | "The documentation needs to be improved." "We would like to have more granular control for interface styling." "My only request is that they decrease the license costs." "Authoring tool is slow to use resulted in limitations on how quickly solutions can be built." "The solution could use some more tutorials to help brand new users figure out how to use the product effectively." "They should provide more flexibility so designers can create a more picture perfect device." "Lacks integration with other products." | "The product is missing some means of addressing more complex BPM constructs and should interface with more platforms easily." |
