Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is that, with a visual system, you can try to have a process client before beginning the programming for the application.""Having knowledge of the BPM and monitoring process has proven to be very beneficial, as I am currently engaged in documenting processes for Clientele.""I can use any other tools to create services and the UI, and then use them together with the Camunda BPMN engine.""The most valuable features are the management of internal processes, the ability to execute from design and the model for internal processes, the ability to make processes visible, and the ability to have information about the current state of each instance.""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.""We can easily define and deploy business processes. Camunda provides the tools that allow business people to design business processes. We don't have to have developers for it. It is so easy to use that our business people can go into the tool and model their business processes. We get time to do other things than just designing business processes.""The most valuable features are the workflow, the task list, and the modeler where we use VPN.""Camunda Platform has a very good interface for workflow and business process design."

"The processor management system is quite fast and scalable. We have 10 developers using this solution and it supports 25,000 users.""We have more than 800 distinct applications in our IT landscape. We had enough scalability and okay development cycles, and it has been enough to cover our backup operations and order management systems.""It is easy and cheap.""The support is good.""One of the most valuable features is its user-friendly API, which simplifies the implementation of workflows, such as managing inbox tasks for specific users within BPM profiles.""What I found most valuable in Oracle BPM is that it has a lot of out-of-the-box integrations. The solution also provides a lot of adapters which is very helpful.""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 default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."

Cons
"The latency of API could be decreased.""I'm from the .NET world and I would like to use it, rather than Java.""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.""The user interface needs some polishing because it is too technical for end-users to use it.""I have faced problems in bringing up the Cockpit in terms of GUI processes. I think that there is room for improvement in those areas.""I don't like the UI of the Camunda Platform, I have found the Signavio solution to be much better for me to create the process designs and execute them. Additionally, I have found the tools in the Camunda Platform are not compatible with some of my other tools. They should improve this in the future.""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 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."

More Camunda Cons →

"Oracle BPM is hard to configure.""Existing APIs in the product need to be fine-tuned, made more robust and flexible for adoption.""The solution needs to offer better integration with third-party systems.""Pricing is an area that could use improvement.""The time it takes to get from deployment to production could be faster.""It would be good if they could provide some additional connectors or an application developer environment for microservices.""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.""Oracle BPM could probably be improved with respect to the cost. When you are using this product, it'll be a bit costlier for the ROA. I think they should do some discounts on these products, especially for the licenses."
