CentraSite vs webMethods.io comparison

"The governance is powerful, and you can look up services very easily, which may reduce some development cycle time."

"The product is powerful, straightforward, and easy to use."

"It's very flexible and a good platform to use."

"Best feature is Insight for monitoring, and as a debugging tool. It has saved us a lot of time during crisis situations."

"The solution is scalable."

"My impression of webMethods.io's drag-and-drop interface to design workflows is actually amazing."

"The core product can be used not only for automatic file transfers between applications, but also as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)."

"Ease of implementation and flexibility to hold the business logic are the most valuable features."

"The product is very stable."

"The setup is mild. It's not so simple and not very difficult. You can make it happen with some configuration, but it's not easy for non-professional people."

"On the monitoring side of things, the UI for monitoring could be improved. It's a bit cumbersome to work with."

"The orchestration is not as good as it should be."

"It is quite expensive."

"It would be nice if they had a change management system offering. We built our own deployer application because the one built into webMethods couldn't enforce change management rules. Integration into a change management system, along with the version control system, would be a good offering; it's something that they're lacking."

"The UI for the admin console is very old. It hasn't been updated for years and is pretty much the same one that we started with. This is something that could be refreshed and made more modern."

"Support is expensive."

"I would like to see the price improve."

"The solution's release management feature could be better."

"The price is high and I give it a five out of ten."

"Currently, the licensing solution for this product is pretty straightforward. The way that Software AG has moved in their licensing agreements is very understandable. It is very easy for you to see where things land. Like most vendors today, they are transaction based. Therefore, just having a good understanding of how many transactions that you are doing a year would be very wise. Luckily, there are opportunities to work with the vendor to get a good understanding of how many transactions you have and what is the right limit for you to fall under."

"webMethods Integration Server is expensive, and there's no fixed price on it because it has a point pricing model. You can negotiate, which makes it interesting."

"Some who consider this solution often avoid it due to its high price."

"This is an expensive product and we may replace it with something more reasonably priced."

"Pricing has to be negotiated with the local Software AG representative. SAG can always prepare an appropriate pricing model for every client."

"The vendor is flexible with respect to pricing."

"It's a good deal for the money that we pay."
