User Testimonials
CamundaCMW Platform
Likelihood to Recommend
Camunda Platform is well suited for scenarios where there are different stages in a business flow and the flow is driven by user action at each stage. For example placing of an order on an ecommerce platform. Depending on whether user was able to make the payment or not the workflow would go to dispatch or retry stage. Now the retry stage would trigger further actions like sending follow up emails etc. Likewise, dispatch stage would have a different set of actions. Since every order is important and we need to know where it stands, using Camunda Platform is imperative. Camunda Platform might not be a right choice where just a one off thing needs to be done. For example, uploading of product information by user or periodic processing of heavy images by a worker. These are all either one step processes or periodic automated processes where we can track the status without using a business modeler like Camunda Platform.

CMW has less integration capabilities, this is something that can definitely be improved in the future. On a side note, the MS Outlook integration option is excellent. The UI is decent for its purpose and the platform is well suited for a range of business requirements - customer order management, document tracking and approval management. You name it, they have it.

Cons
  • Documentation - It is usually daunting for beginners because of lack of good documentation
  • Simplified setup on local machine for Camunda Server would help developers test changes quickly
  • Easier migration from one deployment version of a Camunda process to another deployment version would help in making changes and deploying them faster.
  • Heap memory management becomes issue at times resulting in stuck processes. This needs to be resolved.

It's more of drag and drop functionality. It is quite easy to set up. Creation of form is very easy. Support Team of Comindware Tracker is good and very friendly. It is efficient in terms of task management, project management, team management, vendor/client tracking.

Other than trying Comindware Tracker it is newer to me, I have used Adobe software multiple times and are familiar with their products. I won't stack Comindware Tracker against them because they both are amazing. I like using Comindware tracker because it is easy to use and is great for me, it helps optimize and maintain my workflows.

Return on Investment
  • We've built a good business around developing and deploying Camunda for our clients over the last 7 years.
  • Our clients are finding it a cost-effective way to try before they buy.
  • There's an over-reliance on big offshore outsourcing shops, which hurts ROI and success rates.
