We performed a comparison between ActiveMQ and VMware RabbitMQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Message Queue (MQ) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of this solution is the holding and forwarding."
"Most people or many people recommended using ActiveMQ on small and medium-scale applications."
"The most important feature is that it's best for JVM-related languages and JMS integration."
"ActiveMQ brings the most value to small applications because it will not cost you very much to complete."
"ActiveMQ is very lightweight and quick."
"For reliable messaging, the most valuable feature of ActiveMQ for us is ensuring prompt message delivery."
"I am impressed with the tool’s latency. Also, the messages in ActiveMQ wait in a queue. The messages will start to move when the system reopens after getting stuck."
"I'm impressed, I think that Active MQ is great."
"The product's feature of data transaction works fast."
"The most valuable feature is asynchronous calls, which are easy to configure."
"Large amounts of data can be moved pretty fast using the solution."
"Very sophisticated routing control and priority messaging capabilities"
"We use VMware RabbitMQ to transfer information from one point to another."
"Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements"
"The product's reliability is the most valuable feature."
"I like the high throughput of 20K messages/sec, and that it supports multiple protocols."
"Needs to focus on a certain facet and be good at it, instead of handling support for most of the available message brokers."
"It does not scale out well. It ends up being very complex if you have a lot of mirror queues."
"This solution could improve by providing better documentation."
"The clustering for sure needs improvement. When we were using it, the only thing available was an active/passive relationship that had to be maintained via shared file storage. That model includes a single point of failure in that storage medium."
"The tool needs to improve its installation part which is lengthy. The product is already working on that aspect so that the complete installation gets completed within a month."
"I would like the tool to improve compliance and stability. We will encounter issues while using the central applications. In the solution's future releases, I want to control and set limitations for databases."
"The UI. It's both a good thing and a bad thing. The UI is too simple. Sometimes you wanna see the messages coming to the queue, and you have to refresh the dashboard, the console of the product."
"Distributed message processing would be a nice addition."
"The fact that a single queue can't be distributed across multiple instances/nodes is a major disadvantage."
"The product is pretty hard to configure."
"We needed to configure additional plugins. While it was relatively easy to do this on-premises, it became more challenging in the cloud."
"There are some security concerns that have been raised with this product."
"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."
"RabbitMQ is clearly better supported on Linux than it is on Windows. There are idiosyncrasies in the Windows version that are not there on Linux."
"VMware RabbitMQ needs to create a new queue system."
"The availability could be better."
