ROI

Sentiment score
5.8
BizTalk Server offers great ROI for large industries, but smaller businesses might prefer cloud solutions for more flexible options.
Sentiment score
5.5
Pipefy boosts team efficiency through automation, reducing manual tasks, saving time and money, and optimizing workflows in the commercial sector.
Now the direction is to move away from BizTalk Server to IBM WebMethods, which has more features compared to BizTalk Server.
Senior Application Specialist at Taqa Distribution
BizTalk Server's ROI is comparatively higher than Boomi and Workato.
Service Owner at a logistics company with 10,001+ employees
With the entire service being constantly evaluated and with us having a trace of all this operational side, we are able to measure the quality of the service, how much each of the employees worked.
Head de Operações
In terms of money and time saved, Pipefy is a great time saver overall, reflecting in analysts handling additional projects beyond ticket management.
Finance Analyst at a media company with 5,001-10,000 employees
The Kanban model makes it very technological, leading to increased productivity compared to something done manually, such as sending quotations by email.

Customer Service

Sentiment score
4.8
User experiences vary, with praised documentation, competent engineers, and mix of Microsoft's support and external consulting for assistance.
Sentiment score
4.7
Pipefy's customer service is efficient and responsive, though some users face delays and prefer easier contact options.
I would rate customer support on a scale from one to ten as ten.
Analista de Negócios at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Whenever I needed support, and there were many times I needed it, they were extremely attentive and quick in their service.
PMO Manager at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
This is cumbersome, and I find direct customer service with Pipefy to be lacking.

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
6.0
BizTalk Server's scalability receives mixed reviews; some find it expandable, others face issues with increasing message volumes.
Sentiment score
5.9
Pipefy excels in scalability, handling growth efficiently and reliably, while offering user-friendly customization to improve processes for all sizes.
It is time for low-code, no-code, and a quick go-to-market should be faster.
Service Owner at a logistics company with 10,001+ employees
Pipefy's scalability handles the volume of requests very well, and when new demands arise, it does not freeze or lag.
Analista de Compras Junior at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
It is a proportional increase in output without a proportional increase in headcount.
Field Office Coordinator at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Since we can track the whole process, its scalability is very good because we can analyze the entire macro.
Head de Operações
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
6.8
BizTalk Server is stable but struggles with large data, losing relevance as users increasingly transition to cloud solutions.
Sentiment score
7.8
Pipefy is generally stable and reliable, with occasional downtime and good security, making it a dependable choice.
BizTalk Server's stability rates about eight or nine out of ten.
Consultant at EC live! Hans Pointner
BizTalk Server is good for small companies but not for big companies.
Senior Application Specialist at Taqa Distribution
I don't remember any moment when something had an error or when something froze my operation.
Unknown at a tech vendor with 11-50 employees
They always notify about any maintenance and also inform what the progress is when there is a problem.
PMO Manager at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
I would rate its stability at approximately 80 percent reliability with 20 percent downtime.

Room For Improvement

BizTalk Server needs better debugging, deployment, scalability, cloud integration, JSON support, API management, and task management to stay competitive.
Pipefy needs better support, pricing flexibility, enhanced integrations, improved mobile app, and refined workflows for user satisfaction.
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.
Consultant at EC live! Hans Pointner
We initially planned to move to Azure Integration Services, but there are challenges with AIS, so now we are evaluating WebMethods IO.
Service Owner at a logistics company with 10,001+ employees
I believe this part could be improved because this kind of error should not happen while someone is using Pipefy.
Analista de Compras Junior at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Sometimes the person who is buying this platform is not going to use all these functions. So there could be smaller, intermediate plans so you can use Pipefy up to a specific point, and then you would have lower costs.
Head de Operações
Pipefy should alert users when they are creating conflicting rules.
business analyst at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
 

Setup Cost

BizTalk Server offers flexible deployment but can be costly compared to Azure, with users favoring cloud solutions for efficiency.
Enterprise buyers consider Pipefy's pricing high yet favorable, appreciating its value, comprehensive packages, and competitive billing system.
The only thing I heard is that it's not inexpensive.
Consultant at EC live! Hans Pointner
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing has been cost-effective.
Software Firmware Engineer at Kohler Company
My experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing is that it was expensive.
Head de Operações
I also didn't have access to the prices, but I know that we had several users and, given what the platform delivers, it was a fair price.
Analista de Negócios at a outsourcing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
 

Valuable Features

BizTalk Server excels in seamless integrations, data processing, and reliability with its workflows, adapters, and low-code configurations.
Pipefy enhances productivity and workflow visibility with automation, AI optimization, intuitive interface, and low-code flexibility for easy customization.
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.
Service Owner at a logistics company with 10,001+ employees
BizTalk Server offers workflow functionality that I find very effective for process automation.
Consultant at EC live! Hans Pointner
A specific outcome since using Pipefy is that we have reduced lead time significantly.
Lean 6 Sigma Consultant at a energy/utilities company with 201-500 employees
In my opinion, some of the best features Pipefy offers are workflow customizations with low-code configuration, automation of repetitive tasks and approvals, an easy-to-use and intuitive interface, visibility and tracking across teams and processes, integration capabilities with other tools, centralized process management, notifications, and SLA tracking.
Sre at Atlas Technologies
Pipefy has had a positive impact on my organization by helping the collections team convert invoices that were overdue into paid invoices and, consequently, cash for the company.

Featured Reviews

reviewer2759421 - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Tamires dos Santos Andrade - PeerSpot reviewer
PMO Manager at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Workflow automation has transformed portfolio control and centralizes cross‑department requests
Something I would like to see improved in Pipefy is the dashboards. They are good, but they are a little limited. This point is important, and I would also like to see a bit more clarity in the use of AI tokens. Pipefy already offers connection and artificial intelligence tools that help you with your forms and make the process much more intuitive, but it is still a bit obscure regarding consumption, how that consumption occurs, and how to build this in a way that is relatively economical. Another important thing is related to cost. Pipefy's license cost is a high cost compared to other players in the market, but so far it has been worth it. Another thing I would suggest is if they had a white-label option where we could put a bit more of the company's identity. Pipefy already is white label, but the customization options are a little more limited. Turning that into a more attractive page would be nice for some companies so that we can incorporate it into our portals.
