Review summaries and opinions

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

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
6.2
Pipefy optimized workflows by reducing time, costs, and errors, boosting productivity and enabling efficient, data-driven decision-making.
Now the direction is to move away from BizTalk Server to IBM WebMethods, which has more features compared to BizTalk Server.

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
5.5
Pipefy offers accessible, responsive service but some customers find dealing with intermediaries instead of direct contact frustrating.
This is cumbersome, and I find direct customer service with Pipefy to be lacking.
Finance Analyst at a media company with 5,001-10,000 employees
They are solution-oriented and overall very unparalleled.
IT Technician at HCLSoftware
They have been very proactive in helping us with any queries or challenges that we face.

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
6.3
Pipefy's scalability efficiently manages workload increases, supporting organizational growth and adapting to changing user needs.
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 is definitely noteworthy.
Finance Analyst at a media company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Pipefy's scalability is excellent, as it has been able to scale up as our organization's growth needs arise, making it a very scalable tool.
IT Technician at HCLSoftware
 

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
8.0
Pipefy is stable with no downtime, though some server challenges exist, offering effective and consistent performance overall.
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
Pipefy has been very stable, and I have not experienced any downtime or lagging issues.
IT Technician at HCLSoftware
 

Room For Improvement

BizTalk Server needs better debugging, deployment, scalability, cloud integration, JSON support, API management, and task management to stay competitive.
Pipefy should enhance process paths, integrations, scalability, automation, user support, and tutorials while improving dashboards and server speed.
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 would want Pipefy to work on having a general dashboard for an organization, which should be a panel where all the processes of a single organization can be visualized.
IT Technician at HCLSoftware
What is lacking is direct support, since I am required to go through a third-party outsourcing company to connect with Pipefy.
Finance Analyst at a media company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Pipefy can also focus on more dashboards and the way to extract and create indicators in the dashboard section as this appears to be a gap.
Consultant, Lean 6 Sigma consultant at a energy/utilities company with 201-500 employees
 

Setup Cost

BizTalk Server offers flexible deployment but can be costly compared to Azure, with users favoring cloud solutions for efficiency.
The only thing I heard is that it's not inexpensive.
Consultant at EC live! Hans Pointner
Pipefy's cost is relatively competitive compared to other alternatives, and the licensing cost is also competitive.
IT Technician at HCLSoftware
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing has been cost-effective.
Software Firmware Engineer at Kohler Co.
 

Valuable Features

BizTalk Server excels in seamless integrations, data processing, and reliability with its workflows, adapters, and low-code configurations.
Pipefy enhances productivity with customizable workflows, automation, integrations, and easy interface for seamless, efficient process management.
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.
Consultant, 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.

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.

Streamlined workflows have automated tasks and supported real-time collaboration on projects
I consider Pipefy's mobile app to be one of the best features because it helps me use it on the go, and I do not have to miss any notifications. I also love the real-time communication between team members, which makes collaboration much easier than using traditional design documents. It has a very intuitive and user-friendly interface where it was easy to get started and use complex features without feeling overwhelmed. The real-time communication and mobile app features are valuable for my work because with Pipefy's mobile app, I can use it on the go, so I do not have to miss anything.
