The short version
- Only Integromat has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Camunda camunda 7 Community Edition stopped receiving security patches after the 7.24 release in October 2025, so free production deployments are now running unpatched software.; Integromat the free plan enforces a 15 minute minimum interval between runs, so nothing near real time is possible without paying
- They diverge on capability: Camunda covers BPMN 2.0 execution, Integromat covers Visual workflow builder.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Camunda
- Camunda 7 Community Edition stopped receiving security patches after the 7.24 release in October 2025, so free production deployments are now running unpatched software.
- Camunda 8 Self-Managed is source-available under the Camunda License 1.0, not open source: production use requires a paid licence, and organisations that adopted Camunda for its Apache licence have to renegotiate that decision.
- Migrating from Camunda 7 to 8 is a rewrite rather than an upgrade because the engine, the API and the persistence model all changed, and there is no in-place migration for running instances.
- Camunda 8 Self-Managed has substantial infrastructure requirements including Zeebe brokers, Elasticsearch and Identity, which is a considerable operations burden compared with the single database that Camunda 7 needed.
- Pricing is not published at all, so evaluating total cost requires a sales process, and there is no way to size a budget before committing engineering time to a proof of concept.
Integromat
- The free plan enforces a 15 minute minimum interval between runs, so nothing near real time is possible without paying
- Free is limited to 2 active scenarios, a 5 MB file size and 7 days of execution logs
- Billing is per credit where each module action counts as one, so a scenario with many steps consumes credits far faster than its run count suggests
- Make API access requires a paid plan
- Priority execution and full text log search are Pro features
- Overage protection is Enterprise only, so cheaper plans can run up charges
