Find out in this report how the two Business Process Management (BPM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I love that Camunda is a very developer-friendly platform, and my customers have evaluated the pricing as reasonable."
"Camunda Platform has a very good interface for workflow and business process design."
"It is quite easy to build a simple process without any knowledge of programming."
"It has been a stable solution so far since it meets our needs, including data modeling, which we need to do before we embark on analyzing and optimizing the business processes."
"There's this graphic that tells you how many lines or how many tickets are in each step. In that way, you know where you stand. I find this feature very valuable."
"The solution is easily compatible with HTML forms and HTML language programming and that is the most significant part."
"I can use any other tools to create services and the UI, and then use them together with the Camunda BPMN engine."
", Camunda can be a powerful tool to work with when used in an optimized and well-implemented manner."
"The most valuable feature is automation, which is quite strong and we are quite happy with it."
"The solution reduces the time to the resolution which is essential for businesses."
"This product is tightly integrated with the RPA automation process."
"The dashboards are helpful because you can display reports directly on your screen."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is the fact it is highly configurable. We can do configurations very easily."
"It gives us the ability to create toolkits and use them across many different applications. It allows us to write things one time, instead of having to write a diary for every single different application. We can write at once and reuse it."
"IBM has spent a lot of time on the connections between the rules engine and its other product, the core BPM platform. They've really centralized the suite as one offering now."
"It has had a positive effect on decision-making in my organization. It helps us with our dispute process."
"We're trying to put the people from the business to do it. We are using APIs, and we have open APIs to define our APIs and the request-response that each call requires and sends. So, to base the mapping on that, there was nothing to help. I know that with some tools, such as Oracle tools, you can see the input and expected output. With drag and drop, you can take one property from the left and drag it to the right, and it does all the mapping itself, but that's not the case with Camunda. So, for me, this is something that can be improved."
"The product's initial setup phase is difficult for beginners."
"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 product does not have a dictionary."
"Would be helpful if there were additional out-of-the-box activities."
"Customization and tech stack could be up-to-date."
"The primary issue regarding the Camuto platform is its high cost of training. This is why I haven't discussed it extensively, as compared to other products that are more affordable in terms of developer training."
"When trying to design rule tables the solutions graphical user interface could improve, it could be more user friendly."
"The UI of the solution is not good. They should work to update the solution and make it better and fresher."
"IBM Business Automation Workflow is not a very user-friendly solution."
"The main areas which need improvement are specifically around reporting and analytics."
"From what I understand, in the next release they're actually going to combine all of this together as one integrated solution... If we could have one unified way to build a solution, that would really help."
"I feel that the features are not user-friendly."
"Improvements could be made in debugging and troubleshooting."
"Sometimes, we feel like we are not getting the full features of the content management capabilities."
"IBM Business Automation Workflow can improve UI flexibility and integration. Additionally, the solutions from IBM have to provide a paperless solution, allowing for digital versions of documents."
