"Upgrades are complex. They typically take about five months from start to finish. There are many packages that plug into webMethods Integration Server, which is the central point for a vast majority of the transactions at my organization. Anytime we are upgrading that, there are complexities within each component that we must understand. That makes any upgrade very cumbersome and complicated. That has been my experience at this company. Because there are many different business units that we are touching, there are so many different components that we are touching. The amount of READMEs that you have to go through takes some time."
"Support is expensive."

"We need more dashboards and reporting engines that can provide detailed information for management. In short, we need better analytics."

"The installation process should be simplified for first time users and be made more user-friendly."
"The interface needs some work. It is not very user-friendly."
