We performed a comparison between Aurea CX Messenger, IBM MQ, and VMware RabbitMQ based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, IBM, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in Message Queue (MQ) Software."The features that I have found most valuable are that it is very easy to develop. Most of it is graphical, but we also have the option to add any custom call that you need."
"The Messenger Broker is a really good feature."
"The solution is highly scalable, this is very important for us. It can handle a lot of messages."
"ESB: Provides all kind of possibilities to resolve business needs. A lot of ready to use services plus custom Java services. I used a lot of them all."
"SDM: User-friendly tool which allows for a seamless approach to performing hotfixes, if required."
"The solution offers excellent stability."
"RabbitMQ and Kafka require more steps for setup than IBM MQ. Installation of the IBM product is very simple."
"The solution is very stable."
"Has helped integrate between applications, reduce rework, and costs by reusing working components of existing applications."
"IBM MQ is the right choice because of the stability and the performance. And from the support perspective, it's enough to have a really small team."
"IBM is still adding some features and coding some other systems on the security end. However, it has the most security features I've seen in a communication solution. Security is the most important thing for our purposes."
"Assists with our apps and has great message processing."
"The usability of the solution is very good."
"There are a lot of extensible options for security, i.e., various things you can do. It's pretty easy to navigate."
"After creating a RabbitMQ service, they provide you with a sort of web management dashboard."
"Some of the most valuable features are publish and subscribe, fanout, and queues."
"Simple and straightforward admin portals: Made it easy for users and worked out excellently for our requirements"
"The security is great."
"Companies can scale the solution, so long as they have server room."
"Very sophisticated routing control and priority messaging capabilities"
"We use VMware RabbitMQ to transfer information from one point to another."
"The solution's best feature is its exceptional speed, delivering efficient utilization of resources."
"It should include/add more services with the product as per market demand. It should include custom Java services developed by any organization or provide a platform where users/developers can share ideas/custom services, etc."
"You should not hurry with upgrades without testing the whole product completely."
"Aurea CX Messenger could improve by making better use of the new APIs"
"The improvement is that it should be on the cloud and use web services."
"The solution needs to improve support for new, more recent protocols on the API."
"I don't know if the last version has the cloud option, but maybe that could be good. That could be something that is included."
"The integration capabilities could be even easier."
"It is expensive. The cost is high. There should be more improvement in the new age of technologies."
"The monitoring could be improved. It's a pain to monitor the throughput through the MQ. The maximum throughput for a queue or single channel isn't clear. We could also use some professional services by IBM to assess and tune the performance."
"The user interface should be enhanced to include more monitoring features and other metrics. The metrics should include not only those from the IBM MQ point of view but also CPU and memory utilization."
"Should have more integration in the monitoring tools."
"The GUI part could be better."
"I would like to see message duplication included."
"The product does not allow users to access data from API or external networks since it can only be used in a closed network, making it an area where improvements are required."
"I’d like this dashboard to use web sockets, so it would actually be in real time. It would slightly increase debugging, etc."
"I was struggling with installing a few things. It would be good if was somewhat similar to RedHat. There should be more documentation regarding installation troubleshooting."
"We needed to configure additional plugins. While it was relatively easy to do this on-premises, it became more challenging in the cloud."
"They should improve on the ability to scale your queues in a very simple and elegant way with the same power that they have would be great."
"When you have complex tasks, RabbitMQ is hard to use."
"I would like to see the performance of the administration portal improved and additional messaging protocols."
"If you're outside IP address range, the clustering no longer has all the features which is problematic."
"The fact that a single queue can't be distributed across multiple instances/nodes is a major disadvantage."
