We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | ||
"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 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." "The solution is easily compatible with HTML forms and HTML language programming and that is the most significant part." "The speed and execution of DMN was a big selling point for us. It's very good at conducting business processes that are easily modeled and presented in a way that's easy to understand." "It allows me to present or to demonstrate the business process flow, visually, without having to resort to PowerPoint, Visio, or other products." | "It has the ability to scale up, as well as integrate with other systems within the organization to get real-time information from dashboards and reports." "The most valuable features are business process modeling and reporting." "The stability of the ARIS BPM platform is quite good. The nice thing about it is the central database, where we can use all of our data. We can even manage users." "This solution has helped us in terms of discovering business processes." "The ability to sort via multiple criteria to identify the relationships you need for a specific object." "ARIS is probably the most mature product in terms of modeling an enterprise architecture so that it has context." "The initial setup and installation are very straightforward." "The ease of use is the most valuable. I have tried a number of BPMN packages, and I find the user interface of ARIS BPM easier and more intuitive than others. If your team is knowledgeable on BPMN, it is really pretty easy to figure out on your own because it adheres to the standards extremely well. I have tried Bizagi, BizFlow, and a variety of such solutions, and I just liked ARIS BPM better." | "This solution has given us a quick time to market, the ability to integrate with the rest of the corporate applications, and the ability to hire talent in low-cost locations." "The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work." "Our company is based around Oracle processes. It provides a lot of flexibility in its processes." "The initial setup is straightforward." "We selected this solution not only for the BPM but for the entire package." |
Cons | ||
"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." "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." "Especially when you use the open-source version, there are issues with performance." "If there were some industry templates it would have helped significantly, because it is similar to a process map for a domain. That is what we are currently creating, a domain-relevant process map." | "Making it more customizable and easy to learn would be a benefit." "I would like to see the reporting aspects improved." "With ARIS BPM, the script creation is quite cumbersome. With version ten, we needed our developers to do scripting." "Integration with third-party tools should be improved (e.g. based on APIs)." "The governance mechanism could be better, as could automation." "The interface is a little archaic." "The workflow approval process could be represented better in the overviews." "I use it strictly for developing the business process model. I don't use it for the actual automation. I do that with Vtenext. I have standardized on Vtenext, and I don't use ARIS BPM anymore. The Vtenext UI is just as good, and it is much more tightly coupled to the underlying object model. I can get more done in one session with Vtenext rather than first going to ARIS BPM, then importing, and having to edit it for tight coupling." | "Existing APIs in the product need to be fine-tuned, made more robust and flexible for adoption." "Overall, the engine and the UI both have to be made lighter." "We have had some issues with version migration, from one version of processes to another. We would have to call Oracle Services but on a day to day, we didn't have any issues." "The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems." "From my knowledge of this solution, I don't see that the Oracle BPM includes features such as the growth of discovery and process mining." |
Pricing and Cost Advice | ||
"We are using the open-source version of this solution." "Camunda is much cheaper." "I use the open-source free version." "The open-source version of the product is free to use." "The cost of this solution is better than some competing products." "Licensing costs are anywhere from $80,000 to $100,000 USD per year." "We use the open-source version, which can be used at no cost." "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." | "In terms of pricing, it would be nice if it were more affordable." "This is absolutely not the cheapest solution in the market, but for large companies, the price is fine." | "The licensing model is good." "It's pried high, this solution is expensive." |
