“Efficient Process Automation With Camunda Despite Intuitive UI and Compilation Limitations”

4.0
Jul 24, 2025
My overall experience with Camunda as the workflow engine for our Order Manager suite has been quite positive, I found the product to be highly flexible and BPMN based, making it adaptable to our complex telecom order to activation workflows while enabling strong automation and transparency throughout our processes. Integration with other 3PP systems as part of robust workflow is also easier with Java delegates and Delegate expressions and with Spring framework's matured Error handling Jeopardy management and fallout are very easy to handle. Real-time cockpit enabled quick tracking of the order lifecycle and quick addressing of issues. The learning curve in the beginning is a little steep and the user interface could be more intuitive, but these challenges were manageable and outweighed by Camunda's robust orchestration capabilities and reliability in handling E2E order fulfillment. What could have been better is UI for Jeopardy management, i.e. fallout user tasks in telecom workflows usually need a robust way to customize and create a user interface which can be used to update order data in case of any Jeopardy or fallout of any external integration and options to Retry/Skip or cancel order but i felt Camunda UI wasn't upto the mark on this. Also incident management sometimes rollback the activities back to last save point which has issues in operations, including the async continuations is usually not recommended due to performance hit but its a major compromise.

Dislike

1. Realtime compilation is missing in BPMN modeler unlike other like Eclipse or Intellij, Groovy script compilation issues are only caught when deployed or in case of our project we had CICD pipelines and small compilation mistakes were only caught during Pipeline runtime which was not easy to manage. 2. Performance Tuning needs a centralized documentation or demo material to help in tuning Camunda based application. The Camunda Community has good solution but a centralized combined view is missing and it took us many iterations of orders as well as many discussions on various forum to reach an appropriately tuned application. 3. Designing and maintaining complex big processes isnt easy. Workflow modeler can be better in that sense with more added tools to easily create flows.

not very well prepared, documented for Camunda 8

Creo que la parte negativa que tiene es la curva de aprendizaje que puede convertirse en algo pronunciada sobre todo si no estas familiarizado con BPMN o integraciones tecnicas, aunque la documentacion es amplia pero puede resultar complejo la primera vez que te enfrentas a ello. La configuracion inicial tambien puede ser algo lenta hasta que pones en marcha el proyecto.

    Camunda Powers Enterprise-Grade Workflows by Spring Boot Integration and REST API

    5.0
    Jul 22, 2025
    my overall experince with camunda has been positive. the platform delivers an enterprise grade bpm engine. the engine covers core bpmn and dmn standards and has a native java api and spring boot starters to accelerate the development cycles. the performance was solid. it can handle high transaction volumes with minimal latency. also, cockpit is a great application for real time monitoring with the engine. that all was what worked well part. for what didn't work much is that initial setup requires careful database and engine configuration, can be error prone for newcomers. and, some advanced bpmn constructs (event subscription, for example) have limited examples in the official documentation. plus, version upgrades sometimes introduce breaking changes, it might be challenging...

    A trusted product that inspires innovation and helps us evolve our process landscape

    Jul 11, 2025
    We've been a customer for many years - now transitioning to C8. Camunda has always been a super stable product that solved our problems. With C8 now in place we are using the momentum to rethink our architecture and build a centralized automation platform. What we value the most is the stable and performing engine as well as the BPMN standard that allows us to have business model their processes in the same language we use to implement them into our IT stack. We use Camunda for Decision Handling as well and our claim processing benefits a lot from it. Now with the new out of the box solutions in place we are curious to improve our overall process architecture

Implementing Camunda whether integrating the software itself or connecting it with internal systems can present challenges. However Camunda is well-prepared to address these issues , offering expert guidance for both technical and business-related aspects of implementation. Choosing Camunda can significantly enhance process execution, visibility and reporting capabilities.
