Service Owner at a logistics company with 10,001+ employees

Has required extensive coding and high effort for maintenance but has supported legacy integrations

I am generally satisfied with BizTalk Server, but there are some gaps, as we have multiple integration tools. Thus, there is associated cost, operation cost, license cost, and CapEx, so we are trying to consolidate all the integration tools. Regarding BizTalk Server and data mapping tools, we want to get rid of BizTalk Server, as there is unnecessary license cost, and there are some limitations, so we might go for Azure Integration Services. BizTalk Server is completely ruled out; we will not be proceeding with it. We initially planned to move to Azure Integration Services, but there are challenges with AIS, so now we are evaluating WebMethods IO because WebMethods is now part of IBM, which is performing well in the market, although the IBM license cost is too high. The initial investment is too high, and we want to reduce that cost.

Ready to use, with no need for customization

We currently operate in a banking domain. It helps to take daily backups of database. The BMC TrueSight helps in following the Reserve Bank guidelines and scheduling the back up as necessary. The solution creates a back-up and re-evaluates all the necessary information, alarming us in case there is a set of missing information. In case the backup fails, it also has an error handling mechanism is present, sending real-time messages and alerts in the form of emails to responsible teams. We have minimized the L1 and L2 activities, currently allowing us to only deal with L3 activities. If there are any errors in terms of backup, the incident is directly raised to Level 3. This automation has helped us save about 5 million pounds. It is also capable of no-manual intervention, where onboarding can be done without any manual assistance. The GUI offered by this solution is currently not available in the market. Whenever the details of customers are entered in the GUI, the process is carried out smoothly in the background without any issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Boomi has advantages over BizTalk Server because it is more flexible, low-code, no-code, easy to implement, and has a fast go-to-market."

"The platform is more like a Lego landscape of different building blocks and the most valuable part is that they can be built and constructed independently."

"BizTalk is easy to implement, deploy, install, and configure."

"The product stood out as a really helpful solution when we came upon a problem of increasing the number of relationships between corporate systems, naturally causing an increase in expenses required to maintain the existing infrastructure."

"Essentially, you can do whatever you like with these systems, and you do not have to take care about the scaling because if one server is overloaded, it just forwards the message to the next server, even if it were designated to a specific server. It weeds out the messages according to the load. If you want to scale it, you just add new servers."

"MS BizTalk is reliable and dependable."

"Compared to the current solutions I use, like Azure Logic Apps and other cloud services, BizTalk was far better and more reliable."

"Faster development time"

More BizTalk Server pros

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration has made things much easier for them."

"The best feature of BMC TrueSight Orchestration is the number of integrated mechanisms it provides."

"We can implement compliance standards with the solution. You can also do patching so that the environment is compliant and secure from external threats and hacking. We can provision multiple systems with the help of predefined templates that the organization has forwarded us. The solution’s users can also integrate multiple products which can be either BMC or non-BMC. There are numerous possibilities that can be done with server automation"

"The best thing about TrueSight is the user interface, which is intuitive and easy to use. It supports accessibility and exporting, so we can output to the format we require. We can use TrueSight to integrate nearly any other product. I can't think of another product that can match this functionality. We also have Microsoft Orchestrator, but it can't match BMC TrueSight Orchestration."

"We particularly like the integration functionality of this solution. This product is open API, which means that it can be integrated with any solution from any other brand."

"The automation helps in payment transactions through BHIM app. The BMC helps in smooth clearance of all payments without using MasterCard or Visa. The solution is ready to use, and there is no need for customization or resources. We can complete integration over cloud and on-premise, and even using mainframes. The automation are secure through BMC TrueSight Orchestration."

"The initial setup is easy. The deployment was done in an hour."

"This solution is scalable."

Cons

"The deployment could be simplified."

"Features which could be improved include sending JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) and receiver ports (which was added later)."

"BizTalk lacks native cloud support. BizTalk doesn't offer in-built support for cloud. We need to use third-party adapters to connect it to cloud services."

"I wish overall implementation and debugging were made simpler."

"The product could be improved in monitoring, managing, and support functionalities."

"We encounter issues with deployment when SQL Server and BizTalk Server are on separate machines, especially with the MSDTC."

"It's a complex product because you have many degrees of freedom to connect different parts together. Whether it's sensible or not, is up to you, but the machine does allow it. But because of the vast degrees of freedom, it's complex."

"BizTalk Server needs improvements, especially because we use it for EDI messaging, and it would be very useful to have enhanced tracking capabilities for message tracking and archiving of messages."

More BizTalk Server cons

"BMC TrueSight Orchestration is difficult to understand. It's not very user-friendly."

"Regarding scalability, the architecture does not allow you to add additional servers just able to use two application servers, so it's not scalable."

"The architecture of this solution needs improvement, it is very complicated. It creates a lot of problems in our environment. Most of the time I am trying to find and solve the problem."

"At present this solution is only available to be hosted on-premises, which can cause network issues when integration with cloud-based software is attempted."

"We are aiming for AI automation and look for support from BMC. The features are currently missing but we are hoping for some upgrade in this matter."

"It would be helpful if TrueSight could log errors in a better format. I would also like to see more connector support. Let's say I have a third-party vendor that I need to integrate with Ansible. It would be helpful if BMC announced a specific connector for that. I've encountered situations where I need to work with scripts or find another way to integrate a particular product with TrueSight Orchestration. BMC already supports many products. For example, we have a connector for Ansible, but I think it needs to be improved some."

"The solution is not user-friendly."

"The solution should move to the cloud. Every application from the BMC is on the container and moving to the cloud. There is also a number of limitations for the smart reporting feature of the TrueSight server which is not working in sync. We did not get any satisfactory reply from BMC on that note. We are not able to do the real-time sync between HSA and non-HSA service reporting tools and the actual application tools."

More BMC TrueSight Orchestration cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was not cheap, but it was affordable."

"BizTalk Server is cheap. I would rate its pricing a two out of five."

"BizTalk Server is not freeware. There's a significant licensing cost involved. Be sure you will actually utilize its features fully."

"The cost will depend on the client's requirements."

"The solution is expensive."

"Based on the knowledge, it is relatively cheaper than Azure Identity Services and cloud services in general."

"Licensing is per lot, or per agent — one agent is one license."

"Regarding pricing, it comes with the package when you buy the server automation. But it's made depending on some agreements for companies, of which I don't know the clause."

"There is a huge cost saving with BMC TrueSight compared to other solutions."

"Licensing is available in different ways and depends on data being consumed by users and nodes being operated."
