Our company uses the solution for enterprise clients in the banking and finance industries. We use different versions of the open source solution depending on client needs. The solution has flexibility and stability. There is not much ability inside of the solution. The world is going beyond…

The tool's open-source nature influenced my decision to use it because it was cost-effective. Our business team handed it over to us, and they were aligned with using it. I recommend it because it offers multiple application routing data handling capabilities. It helped convert the data. I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten. If someone wants to start using it, I would tell them that there isn't much competition in the market because the tool is unique and has been established for a long time. It has set the benchmark, and other brands are striving to catch up with your range of services. This is something to be proud of.

Sometimes the console has a glitch. For example, we might send some commands to stop the servers and we get some logs or some errors from the console. After some minutes the services stop yet the console doesn't refresh the status. Sometimes I miss the JDBC resources full administration from GlassFish. In GlassFish, you define the pool and if you have three or more domains you can deploy to each domain. However, in JBoss, you have to define each pool in every configuration. Sometimes you have to do extra work to define this JDBC force and that is something that sometimes is very annoying.

Key learnings from peers

Last updated Apr 5, 2024

Valuable Features

"We use JBoss mainly for application deployments and application servers."
"The support is fast and reliable."
"The tool's most beneficial feature is its scalability. People with limited technical knowledge can quickly grasp its functions with a brief introduction. The tool's ease of use makes it a plug-and-play solution, reducing the effort required to train users on its usage."

Room for Improvement

"JBoss is not as reliable and stable as WebLogic."
"The product could be cheaper."
"The tool's documentation could be improved to explain its usage and functionalities clearly. Having accessible documentation would save time for leaders like me when juniors seek information about it. The documentation should be self-explanatory and guide users on how to utilize the tool."
