We performed a comparison between Camunda and WorkflowGen 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 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."
"The speed and execution of DMN was a big selling point for us. It's very good at conducting business processes that are easily modeled and presented in a way that's easy to understand."
"Provides an easy way to integrate with the architectural environment."
"For an internal project, this is a solution that you can install and have up and running quite quickly."
"The architecture is good because it's a headless workflow. I can create my own frontend, and it's fully API-based."
"One reason we selected Camunda or Cloud/DB is that it comes with the support of the BPMN notation, which helps to define processes in a standard manner. Another reason was that Camunda Cloud, as the name says, is designed for a new cloud era."
"The solution is easily compatible with HTML forms and HTML language programming and that is the most significant part."
"We use it a lot for creating workflows to transfer materials between plants, which is a signature part of what we do."
"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."
"Especially when you use the open-source version, there are issues with performance."
"The product's initial setup phase is difficult for beginners."
"When building interfaces, there are limited tools to work with, especially when dealing with different types of tasks, such as user tasks and system tasks."
"It has a Postgres database at the backend, and it is very difficult to scale if you increase the number of processes running. We did hit some barriers. We were able to overcome them, but it was a problem. Camunda has another product called Camunda Cloud, which supposedly doesn't have the same scalability problems, but we are not using Camunda Cloud because the set of features is smaller than Camunda On-Premises. So, its scalability can be improved. Because it has a single database, it is more difficult to scale if you have a huge success."
"They could provide more documentation regarding the integration of different programming languages."
"I think it would be important to internationalize the Cockpit and the Admin as well as with the Tasklist."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
