I'm doing a comparison between Camunda & other alternatives (eg. Activiti) as a part of a feasibility study.

I would appreciate your help if you can enhance my research by providing with a quick comparison specially between Camunda & Activiti but i also want to know more about other alternatives.

I would prefer a very short comparison listing only important features (distinguishing features like what is possible for one & not for others, licensing, dependencies with other products like tomcat & JBoss & operating systems etc).

For Camunda and Activiti the OpenHub comparison of statistics is quite interesting: https://www.openhub.net/p/_compare?project_0=camunda+BPM+platform&project_1=Activiti

But as I am obviously biased (as Camunda Evangelist) I do not want to go into details myself. You might find these white-papers helpful though: https://network.camunda.org/whitepaper/8, https://network.camunda.org/whitepaper/2).
