Automation aids installation while management consolidation needs improvement

Pros

"I find JBoss to be lightweight and easier to manage compared to WebSphere."

Cons

"I would like to see improved booting of applications altogether on one page to manage all data instances from one location, similar to an AWS console. "

Fast, reliable, and well-established

Pros

"The stability is good. I would rate it a nine out of ten. "

Helps to bring APIs in-house and reduce the dependency on vendors

Pros

"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. "

Cons

"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. "

A flexible and stable solution that is cost-efficient compared to other products

Pros

"The solution has flexibility and stability."

Cons

"There is not much ability inside of the solution. The world is going beyond different micro and data-type things like Microsoft Office, so we are not seeing much ability within the solution. "

User-friendly and adapts well to changing monitoring requirements

"The most valuable thing about JBoss is how easy it is to install and manage it on-premise, making the process simple."

Cons

"In terms of monitoring, the old version was somewhat limited in flexibility, lacking the ability to easily adjust configurations. "
