Summary Complexities with Camunda Hyland benefits

Summary

  • Transitioning from Camunda to Hyland Automate is seamless, thanks to Automate’s BPMN-compliant platform built on the same Activiti foundation, which enables direct import of Camunda projects with minimal disruption.
  • Automate goes beyond workflow orchestration, offering advanced AI capabilities, content intelligence and innovative solutions like IDP, RPA and knowledge discovery to accelerate business outcomes.
  • Hyland provides a secure, scalable, and intuitive low-code solution, backed by deep industry expertise and professional migration assistance to ensure a smooth transition and long-term success.

If you are looking for alternatives to upgrading your Camunda environment, you are not alone. For existing Camunda customers, the upgrade path from prior versions to Camunda 8 represents a considerable commitment in effort, time and budget, and it can cause a disruption to your business and users.

Fortunately, it’s never been easier to migrate from Camunda to Hyland.

Complexities with Camunda upgrades

Part of the complexity associated with upgrading Camunda is that starting with version 8, Camunda moved away from Activiti code base — the most powerful open source engine for process orchestration. This major architectural change prevents a simple upgrade path and also brings about changes to pricing and deployment.

Hyland Automate: A Camunda alternative

Luckily, you have easier options: Automate is a compelling AI-powered process orchestrator that jump-starts your intelligent automation efforts without having to jump through a lot of hoops.

Automate is BPMN-compliant and built on the same Activiti foundation as Camunda. It supports direct import of your Camunda projects and orchestrations, which helps minimize downtime, accelerate user onboarding and minimize disruption to your organization’s business processes during the migration.
