Camunda as a solution
What do you like best about the product?
There are multiple things that are good about Camunda, especially with the new AI agents that will help model our processess even quicker. Another feature i like is the token simulation to do a walk through and identify potential problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are using the self managed version, due to concerns regards dealing with PI data. We eould like to use the SaaS version if these concerns were not there.
One thing that I fo not like too much is the user interaction of the Camunda Desktop. It is difficult for business users to interact with, due to a very technical way for navigating through the interface.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating our infra components and making the process more visible
Allows for quick process design and implementation
What is our primary use case?
Camunda can be used in various workflow scenarios, such as policy administration systems, onboarding, account management in telecom, insurance products, policy issuance, claims management, and loan management.
It is also suitable for customer service center activities where customers' accounts are created. Camunda can manage any workflow that requires customer interaction with the system. It is a competitor to other BPM solutions like Pega.
What is most valuable?
The architectural part of Camunda for workflow design is highly valuable, especially the Camunda Modeler, which allows quick process design and implementation. Camunda's DML is a competitor to the implementation of business rules.
It integrates well with Java, making it suitable for various technology stacks. Camunda facilitates microservices integration. Its SaaS model provides scalability, automatically managing and scaling implementations.
What needs improvement?
The deployment model could be improved for easier implementation. More open documentation would be beneficial to understand the deployment process better and facilitate easier setup.

I began working with Camunda in 2013.

Camunda is quite stable, and I would rate its stability around eight to nine out of ten. There haven't been any significant outages in my experience with Camunda.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Camunda offers a high level of scalability, especially when using its SaaS model, which manages and scales implementations automatically. I would rate its scalability a ten out of ten.

Camunda's community is medium-sized, offering reasonable support. However, they provide better support for the enterprise edition. There was not a large community in the early years.
How would you rate customer service and support?

For earlier versions, implementation involved bundling applications as WAR or EAR files using Maven, and deploying them on JBoss Server. I have yet to explore Camunda 8's implementation process.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
There is a licensing cost for using the SaaS model and Enterprise edition of Camunda, although I am not aware of the specific pricing.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
