The user interface is easy to understand, but its performance could be improved

I also work with IBM Sterling B2B Integrator. Unlike Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration, IBM Sterling B2B Integrator doesn't have a UI-based platform to monitor all incoming and outgoing transactions. We use IBM Sterling B2B Integrator for everything, including transmission. We use Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration only for transmission purposes. We use Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration because it has a great user interface, which makes it very easy to monitor everything. IBM Sterling B2B Integrator is better than Axway AMPLIFY B2B Integration because it is a very robust solution. Unlike cloud-based systems, IBM Sterling B2B Integrator can handle very complex logic. It can easily process files with 5 GB to 10 GB sizes. Once you take the license, you won't have to pay anything extra for computing power.

Banks achieve seamless data transformation and integration with enhanced security and scalability

From the automation perspective, IBM B2B Integrator has its own powerful workflow, but compared to other applications such as MuleSoft or Boomi, they have many cloud connectors and multiple connectors for integrating with Salesforce or other CRM or ERP applications, whereas here you may have to develop them, which is not native. There is room for improvement in IBM B2B Integrator, particularly in the automation parts, and from a UI perspective. They are making some changes to make it more intuitive. The current UI is not aesthetically pleasing, but features-wise, it is rich enough to provide all the valuable information required.

Cons

"The solution's performance could be improved and made similar to that of IBM Sterling B2B Integrator."

"The initial setup can be a bit tricky."

"Map translator needs more enhancements."

"From the automation perspective, IBM B2B Integrator has its own powerful workflow, but compared to other applications such as MuleSoft or Boomi, they have many cloud connectors and multiple connectors for integrating with Salesforce or other CRM or ERP applications, whereas here you may have to develop them, which is not native."

"The user interface is outdated. B2B Integrator was developed in the United States in the nineties, and the graphical user interface hasn't improved since. It's tough because you have to program the software in XML. Nowadays, other methods are easier to work with."

"Patching or upgrading the product is a bit of a nightmare. It would be nice if they removed the installation manager port. We find it complicates upgrading and patching a great deal."

"IBM B2B Integrator could improve the business process itself, there is no resignation of duties and in terms of the console should be changed in a way that is more user-friendly."

"There should be a single place to do things, rather than making it complicated, not moving away and truncating the old features but instead coming up with the new and still keeping the old stuff confuses people sometimes."

"The one thing that is lacking is easy visibility. It's hard to provide business users with a view into the statuses of their transactions."

"There is no related transaction stored in the database because it's an OLTP application."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other SaaS platforms, the solution's pricing is less."

"Licensing depends upon the package you opt for within the solution. The solution is a bit costly compared to the other integration tools in the market."

"We pay an annual fee based on the number of VPUs. It's fairly reasonable. We're in the middle of analyzing other products, and they're all pretty much in the same range."

"The solution is priced at $20,000 to $30,000 per year with no extra costs."

"The price of IBM B2B Integrator is too high. However, IBM may be willing to give a discount if there are negotiations. If they see that there is a good opportunity for them they can provide a discount."

"The product costs more than 40K."

"The pricing is based on how many cores are used and the type of cores."
