Centralized gateway has strengthened API security and provides deep traffic analytics
Potential areas of improvement or lack of functions in Axway AMPLIFY API Management is a challenging question because even after working for almost six years, I have not been able to touch everything this tool offers. This tool is very comprehensive and useful. However, from my opinion, when there are different dashboards on which the API platform shows monitoring, I expect Axway AMPLIFY API Management to be more visible in terms of showing pre-historic data. In other words, if there is a very large volume or very large number of transactions going on live in production, sometimes it purges the previous data very quickly, leaving only one or two hours of data. When there is very low volume, it can sustain data up to five days. The visibility of the previous historic database is a feature that could be improved. Different tools can be used to empower this capability, such as Splunk or the ELK stack, which includes Elastic. There are different features that could be used, but Axway as an organization would likely implement their specific products. I am simply providing a very basic opinion anonymously and do not want to sound like I am against this organization.

Exceptional support and reliability drive optimal data flow and integration
The features of SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite that I found most valuable are related to entity flow. We can find the entity flow to be very useful so we can grab the flow accordingly. There is no disturbance in the connections, and it is very clear to check the connection flow with applicable queues. When comparing to other applications, SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite is the easiest way to understand the application. I have also worked on the cloud services where SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite is moving to cloud. I have worked on cloud services where the mapping part is in the cloud itself, along with the connection setup.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The UI and UX are quite good and easy to understand."
"I don't believe the Salesforce has been fully utilized yet. It gives us quick engagement."
"The most valuable features are security enforcement and throttling."
"Centralized API Platform allow us better reusability and monitoring"
"This product is a ten when it comes to API management."
"For what we do, the API portal capability is the most valuable feature."
"Axway AMPLIFY API Management is niche technology that people prefer because it has emerged beautifully and has very nice support and enterprise-level features which are not provided by cloud Azure or AWS."
"Axway is a good product according to Gartner which is why we started to adopt it."
"I like that the tool has all the adapters — all the possible protocols that are in the industry. You pay for those adapters but at least it's all in one package. You don't have to get another tool or application to support another partner."
"One of the things that SEEBURGER always touts is their ability to do "any to any" formatting... it doesn't matter if you want to take a CSV file or an XML file or a flat file or a PDF file or a structure EDI file; you can transform it from one format to another - any to any or even to the same format - which is a really nice feature."
"The solution's capabilities in fulfilling our existing B2B integration requirements are brilliant, and among our multiple customers we connect to SAP systems, JDE, all the various ERPs that you can possibly get, Oracle procurement systems, etc., and we haven't come across anything yet — and customers are trying to trip us up — that we can't do."
"The product is reliable, we don't have any outages, we do get the messages, everything is converted, and there is a query tool."
"What improved was the ability to bring on who we wanted when we wanted to at the pace we wanted to."
"The solution's capabilities in fulfilling our existing B2B integration requirements are brilliant. Among our multiple customers we connect to SAP systems, JDE, all the various ERPs that you can possibly get, Oracle procurement systems, etc. We haven't come across anything yet — and customers are trying to trip us up — that we can't do."
"For the first time, we can start doing things the same way, which means I can have customer service in one facility support customer service in the second facility, and when the next plant came on we were just able to say in SAP, "Here are some new ship-to's" without having to start re-testing with the customer, which saved a ton of work and made our reaction time 50 percent faster from our American plant."
"It is stable and reliable. We have not had any issues."
 

Cons

"The areas for enhancement should be improving certain filters within the solution. Although they are generally functional, there are occasional problems that could be more precisely adjusted. Additionally, the solution performs well within its workload limitations, but it may not be suitable for scaling up or managing a larger volume of transactions through the gateway. To address this, it may be necessary to adopt a unique architecture rather than relying on traditional pre-packaged options."
"The API Mocking tools need to be improved."
"Ultimately, from a very high-level overview, cloud platforms or Kong could have a slight advantage when compared to Axway AMPLIFY API Management."
"This solution does have some limitations regarding the deployment model."
"The installation process is a bit complex and it could be a lot simpler."
"Areas of improvement include marketing and enhancing the data products area by using ETIs."
"Not a ten because of the pricing and technical support."
"In terms of customer service, the company needs to be easier to contact, and the support team needs to understand the situation and the product itself better."
"SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite does not have an end user or subscriber console which can show the traffic status."
"The initial setup is not straightforward. It took a couple of months for us to set up."
"The cost models have room for improvement. There are different licensing models between Europe and the USA, which is something that I don't understand."
"I don't think the scalability of the solution is that great because they have tied the solution to their named nodes and it does not allow scalability like some of the cloud products."
"The cost of the SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite (BIS) can be considered high."
"Difficult in handling large amounts of data, like when the file has more than 100MB in size."
"Java is very old technology and they should move away from it, to anything that's better."
"The ability to bind a mapping to an agreement seems a bit clunky. It would be nice to have a better way of navigating to a map name rather than using a drop down list."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. When you acquire a license you have full access to the solution, unlike other competitors such as Apigee X, where there are fragmented licenses. Some licenses only allow access to certain features while others allow access to more features. Upon procuring this solution's license, you will have full access to the solution, allowing you to experiment with all of its features."
"All the new adapters are individually priced, which is good. You don't buy the whole system and then if you don't use it, you don't use it. You only buy the stuff you want..."
"We pay per message we use. We spend about £19,000 a year with them."
"Sometimes it seems a little pricey, especially when some of the stuff is available through freeware, like SFTP communications... It costs a lot more money to buy this stuff from SEEBURGER but I think it's worth it in the long run."
"The solution provides the flexibility to start small and pay as you grow. SEEBURGER has a lot of offerings..."
"Our licensing model is based on transactions. We have a base service contract which is priced against a volume of transactions and another volume of individual transactions, which are covered by one service agreement. Then, we have development services on top of that. Our annual spend is around £80,000. It's about mid-priced, as there are some cheaper alternatives out there and some more expensive ones. It's neither cheap nor expensive. It's somewhere in the middle."
"I did a review of other options out there, as we moved into the future and our SAP implementation, that this would be the right solution. It was very comparable to other manage services out there. Thus, there wasn't any clear-cut reason to go in another direction."
"There is a standard agreement for the messaging every month. But if we make a change request — a change to a mapping or something like that — then there is a fixed price per hour."
"Pricing has always seemed fair."
