We performed a comparison between Amazon SNS and TIBCO Enterprise Message Service based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Message Oriented Middleware (MOM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best aspect of this solution is its simplicity. We just have to create topics and can have as many subscriptions as we want under any topic we create."
"Stability has been good for us. It is quite high."
"Push notifications are the most valuable. I have mostly used push notifications for my system. Amazon SNS supports all devices for push notification services. It supports iOS, Android, and Windows notifications. It provides reliable push notification services. We have queues, and we can track which notifications have failed or had some issues. We can then figure out the issue. We can also debug the issue because of which our push notification didn't reach the end users."
"The initial setup of Amazon SNS was easy."
"We have found the key feature of this solution to be the simplicity of sending out notifications."
"It's a simple communication service that allows us to communicate with customers."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon SNS is speed. It's really fast."
"The mobile push notifications are the most valuable. Previously, we used to use Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) for this functionality. It is a Google service for sending push notifications. Android did not have a good service for sending push notifications, but now, Amazon SNS integrates with FCM. Under the road, it is actually using FCM, but we can see all the metrics on our AW service itself, which makes it a lot easier instead of using a third-party service for this particular functionality."
"TIBCO Enterprise Message Service's most valuable features are rapid zero-code integration and its large number of adapters and plugins."
"I like TIBCO's ability to create versioned queues and persistent messages."
"The Enterprise Messaging Server will store the message and wait for other subscribers to come onto the network."
"It is very useful tool. It is also very easy to learn and implement."
"The setup was done by TIBCO. It has been stable and has a server."
"The initial setup is straightforward and the product documentation is very good."
"We have implanted the core middleware solution for the organization using this product and it is responsible for communication between different applications."
"It allows us to achieve synchronous as well as asynchronous communication with the added advantage of making the communication reliable."
"In terms of improvement, I would like to have better customer support for SNS. We can then manage it very easily."
"A major issue with AWS as a whole is that it has a lot of services that do the same thing, and people get confused about which one to use in which scenario. Previously, we used to use SNS for connecting microservices. SNS has around six types of subscribers. We can subscribe to Lambda, HTTP, HTTPS, SMS, email, and push notifications. We used to use HTTP endpoints and Lambda for connecting to microservice systems. Now we have something called EventBridge, which actually does that for you. For connecting to services, we should just use EventBridge rather than SQS, SNS. I hear a lot of complaints from people wherein they do not understand when to use EventBridge and when to use SQS, SNS. They can remove these features so that it doesn't confuse users about when to use SQS, SNS, or EventBridge."
"The tool needs to have direct integration with AvPro."
"We would like to have the option when someone leaves the organization or moves to another team, to remove notifications. Currently this needs to be done manually by the company admin."
"We would like the integration with third party applications to be improved within this solution."
"In future releases, I want to see if the platforms that SMS can reach. It would be a good way to improve it. More platforms to be able to use it."
"There could be more integration with other solutions."
"I expect Amazon SNS to provide some capabilities to allow the configuration process to be done in a single script."
"Overall, my experience with the support team has been disappointing."
"TIBCO also has its proprietary line of cloud-based applications, but specifically, these two products are not cloud compatible."
"An area for improvement would be integration with the API layer."
"Since all the communications goes through this product, it acts as a single point of failure."
"I would like to see better integration with Java and Apache Kafka."
