CIB seven in the iX-Magazine
In its current December issue, iX magazine (Heise Verlag) reports on CIB seven and praises the platform as an independent, future-proof product and a reliable open source alternative to Camunda 7. The magazine dedicated an article to our fork when it was launched in November 2024. One year later, a new article by iX editor Achim Born highlights that CIB seven's current release 2.1 includes all the features of Camunda 7.24 – including modern user interfaces, enterprise options, and a clear development strategy.
The focus is also on the new process analysis with CIB ins7ght and a Marketplace planned for 2026.
