Empowering Scalable Workflow Automation with Camunda
What do you like best about the product?
Camunda offers a robust and developer-friendly platform for orchestrating complex workflows across micro services and legacy systems. As a leader in Data Analytics, I appreciate its BPMN based modeling which allows both technical and business teams to collaborate effectively.
What do you dislike about the product?
While powerful, Camunda’s learning curve can be steep for non-technical stakeholders. The documentation, though extensive, sometimes lacks clarity for advanced use cases. Also, enterprise support and licensing costs can be a barrier for smaller teams or pilot projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Camunda is solving a critical challenge in enterprise data operations: orchestrating complex, multi-system workflows with precision and scalability. In my role as Director of Data Analytics, we often deal with fragmented processes across legacy systems, cloud platforms, and microservices. Camunda’s BPMN-based orchestration engine allows us to unify these workflows, automate decision logic using DMN, and ensure seamless integration across APIs and RPA bots.
Virtual Success: Deep Dives into Agentic Orchestration with Camunda
What do you like best about the product?
What I really appreciate about Camunda is its foundation on open standards like BPMN and DMN. This approach ensures that everyone on the team, from business analysts to developers, can clearly understand our processes. It doesn't operate as a mysterious black box; instead, you can visually track and audit every step.
I also value how developer-friendly Camunda is without being unnecessarily complicated. The REST APIs are reliable, and integration with our existing tech stack is seamless, particularly since we use Java and Spring Boot. There's no sense of being locked into their ecosystem—Camunda works well with any services you need to orchestrate.
At CamundaCon 2025, I was especially intrigued by their vision for agentic orchestration. Using Camunda as a governance layer for AI agents seems logical, as oversight and auditability are crucial when AI is involved in critical business processes.
The scalability offered by Camunda 8 and Zeebe is impressive as well. Hearing real-world examples at the conference of companies running high-volume processes reassured me that Camunda is capable of handling enterprise-scale workloads reliably.

What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, the learning curve can be quite steep if you're new to this area. While BPMN is intended to be a "standard," mastering the modeling of complex, real-world processes—especially when it comes to proper error handling and event management—definitely takes time. I've noticed that people often struggle with it at first.
Setting up and operating Camunda 8 can also be challenging. Getting all the components, like Operate, Tasklist, and the monitoring tools, to work smoothly—particularly if you're self-hosting on Kubernetes—demands significant DevOps expertise. If your team lacks that kind of infrastructure know-how, you might find yourselves stuck for a while before you start seeing real benefits.
Another point of frustration is how developer-centric the platform remains. Even though more connectors are being added and there are efforts to simplify things, you still end up writing a fair amount of custom code to make everything function as needed. Business users can't really build solutions independently; they still rely heavily on the development team for most implementations. If you're looking for a more drag-and-drop friendly experience, some other platforms might be a better fit.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We’ve built an AI-powered Supplier Onboarding solution fully on Camunda that automates tax, banking, and compliance checks in days—not weeks. It’s helping Retail and CPG teams cut onboarding time from 12 days to under 5.

Orchestration Mindset
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the ability to create workflows and use the agent hub, which can automatically make decisions to help my processes reach successful completion. It also has the potential to learn from previous gaps in knowledge, gradually becoming more expert over time.
I’ve always like to orchestrate systems and technologies this will increment my knowledge on architect solutions

What do you dislike about the product?
So far nothing, I would love them to have more languages support like c# for all connectors
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps us visualize the business process easily and identify our flaws that can be fixed
Camunda con 2025
What do you like best about the product?
Camunda has significantly contributed to improving our business operations, largely due to its robust workflow orchestration capabilities. At JPMorgan Chase, we employ both Camunda 7 and Camunda 8 in our product. I find Camunda intuitive and easy to use, which makes the process of learning and implementing it quite straightforward. I am looking forward to use Agentic AI capabilities and Camunda con 2025 provided valuable insights about the same. I am grateful to entire Camu da team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would appreciate greater flexibility in the UI area of Camunda. The interface should offer more options for customization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We operate in a highly regulated environment, where we perform manual due diligence reviews for our customers by following a series of steps. The Camubda workflow orchestration tool has been helping us streamline these business processes.

What do you like best about the product?
The architecture and the implementation of BPMN concepts while still advancing the science of business processing really clicks with me.
I find very difficult to understand and learn in chaos.

What do you dislike about the product?
Technical Documentation should be more prevalent and deeper. As a Technical Architect I want to be sure my deliveries are not only aligned with the essence of a BPM Engine but to the development philosophies of the product itself. This way I can avoid reinventing the wheel and putting the project in a situation of constant catch up.
