We performed a comparison between Camunda and SAP Signavio Process Manager based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Business Process Design solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The flexibility is great."
"It has an open BPM"
"It allows me to present or to demonstrate the business process flow, visually, without having to resort to PowerPoint, Visio, or other products."
"The number of client implementations and cross-language capabilities to support multiple frameworks is very pluggable compared to Pega. It's also more portable."
"When I compare it with other BPM tools, like IBM, it is great, open source, and free when you use the community version."
"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 that it's lightweight, can be embedded in existing Java code, and keeps track of the workflow state and the instances that we need."
"Ease of use and ability to streamline a process model."
"It's way of handling is really an advantage. It's quite easy to use, without too much training . That's the main point for me."
"It is highly user-friendly and easy to use, even for those who are not familiar with product modeling."
"Process management/Process governance is what we think Signavio is very good at."
"We could increase the transparency and speed for the new ERP introduction. The status and changes by the new system are now clear to everybody and it is a great tool to train the people."
"The formatting features are quite good because you can create very complex models, but you can easily clean them up so that they look very nice."
"The most valuable feature is probably the nature of it."
"A complete business project management suite which seems to open endless possibility."
"I really like the Collaboration Hub because it's so easy to communicate. And what is really important is that you can use it asynchronously. It doesn't matter if you're working in Italy or in America. You are using the same process and you can speak about the same process."
"The GUI needs to be improved, with more configuration options."
"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."
"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."
"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 initial set up could be simplified, it's 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."
"I think it would be important to internationalize the Cockpit and the Admin as well as with the Tasklist."
"I would like to see better pricing."
"There are a lot of challenges with Process Manager. For example, we wanted to create a process map from an Excel sheet, but Signavio doesn't have that capability. I have raised this issue with Signavio support, but it is one of the bottlenecks we are currently facing."
"The user management functionality in Process Manager is not as user friendly as the one in the Collaboration Hub."
"It is difficult to quickly digest the vast power of the suite and make use of those capabilities fully."
"The product's pricing could be improved."
"Being able to integrate the Workflow Accelerator with more products would be good."
"Technical support has been somewhat challenging; there hasn't been much visibility on how to create a ticket or integrate with SAP."
"There is a need for more varied access packages. The access packages that I have used are not cheap enough. They also provide a complete set of tools that are not always used. Sometimes, you need more segregated things, e.g., Signavio includes functionality for a company that has not yet matured. Since there are no basic packages, the company must pay for a package that is not fully used. Typically, process management is started in a company of a certain maturity."
"The tool's navigation could be improved."
