Activi vs JBPM 5

[ramkibpm]

Currently I am pursuing my organization to use Activiti. My experience with Acitiviti is running some of the examples and creating few samples process myself. I was impressed that I never got a feeling that I am doing something different than programming Java using Spring. Can the activiti experts tell what are the significant advantages of using acitiviti instead of JBPM 5 from their experience. Appreciate your help!

🙂 that's like asking Samsung what it thinks of Apple…

Plus tat I do not think te Activiti experts have a lot of jBPM5 knowledge. They won't be able to tell you more than what you can find on the internet

(wrong forum btw)

The only reason I asked is because, some of the Activiti Engineers are ex-JBPM engineers . Thanks I will post this in the correct forum

jBPM5 is less like jBPM4 than Activiti is (as you an find out on the internet) So asking to compare the latter two is valid, but asking the developers about jBPM5 and Activiti will not result in a detailed (=usable) answer

I recently wrote an article for a German magazin for a comparison. But I think in German doesn't help?

@Ronald: There are a few cosnultants out there which basically look into both of them (and Bonita) 😉

@bernd: jBPM3 and 4 and Bonita I knew but jBPM5 I did not… Sorry, will plug next time
