"Camunda's most valuable feature is its ability to integrate with different products."
"The headless nature of the Camunda Platform is something that has helped us to build our own logic and platforms on it."
"I think that the positives of Camunda Platform are that our customers can start with the free version. I think it is the most important."
"Overall, the solution has been very solid."
"When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."
"We can share, discuss, and develop the model together — from a distance. It's really helped us during these times of isolation."
"A good designation feature."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to draw models quickly."
"Very interactive with an intuitive interface."
"Visio is outstanding because it has features that are useful for project management."
"The solution makes it very easy to make exciting pictures and designs. Everything is very intuitive and simple to figure out."
"It is a useful tool to map data flows, network objects, and computer science technology and show to clients. It does what I need it to do. It's a tool I've used the longest, so I know it the best, and that's probably the claim to fame."
"Simple to use and very intuitive."
"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."
"The support definitely can be improved. Apart from that, the language should be extendable to other platforms. If I want to write, I'll run a different platform, like Python code on top of it, or COBOL code on top of it, and it should support those languages."
"The latency of API could be decreased."
"The migration strategy needs to be improved."
"An improvement would be to support Angular 2 instead of AngularJS, which is quite old."
