I’ll answer these under the assumption that you have developers available to implement some of the functionality you require and/or intend in getting those features by using the EE version

  1. Yes
  2. Yes
  3. Yes
  4. Yes
  5. Yes
  6. Yes
  7. Yes - but it’s better not to use Camunda for this, better to use a file management System
  8. Yes
  9. Yes
  10. Yes
  11. Yes
  12. Yes
  13. Yes
  14. Yes
  15. Yes
  16. No - we have 3 different applications depending on the use (i.e Task workers, DevOps and Process owners)

8- Should we create own mobile application or it’s alreadye exists?
9 - Where can I set availability of users?
13 - I can’t find it in Settings. Should we write own implementation ?

Most people create their own - but you can just use tasklist if you like

This can be done programmatically - depending on the system you use for HR management.

This works out of the box - Identity Service | docs.camunda.org
