Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It allows me to present or to demonstrate the business process flow, visually, without having to resort to PowerPoint, Visio, or other products.""Being able to use a Java-based solution makes the product flexible.""It's user friendly, much better than most tools I have seen.""The Camunda BPMN Platform is very flexible and gives several options to deploy and scale it.""Camunda's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with different products.""The flexibility is great.""The most valuable feature of Camunda Platform is its Microservices architecture, which is easily integrable with APIs.""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."

"Not just the solution's automation capabilities, but we like everything about it since we are more of a system integrator."

More OpenText MBPM Pros →

Cons
"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.""Initial setup can be quite complex.""They have a migration plugin that can be used to migrate from one BPM to another BPM. It is in the beta stage since last year. If they can make it available in the market, it would be great. We are going to have a couple of migration projects for migrating from IBM BPM to Camunda, and this plugin would be useful. I have already discussed this with them two weeks ago and asked them to look into this and add it as a feature. We are expecting this plugin to be available in the next version. This is the only requirement we have at present. They keep on coming up with different features, which is helping us a lot. Its latest release that came out last month was awesome.""The solution could use some enhancements like adding connectors, improving forms and having a mobile app, but everything is an enhancement rather than a flaw.""The documentation could use improvement.""The cockpit features of the Camunda Platform can be improved to make it a bit more user-friendly, in terms of providing a bit more user experience for non-technical users. There could be some additional documentation added.""The product does not have a dictionary.""The only drawback is the time that it takes to have a complete set of workflows implemented on the Camunda platform."

"There are shortcomings in the solution's support and documentation part.""The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
