ESB/ABAP developer at a retailer with 1,001-5,000 employees

You can build your model with a graphical interface using UML. Apart from some scripting, there is no coding.

An area of improvement is the stopping and starting of services from the Bridge server console. The only way to test services on the Bridge is to have them scheduled so that they run at a specific moment in time. It is, at this time, not possible to trigger this by hand from the console. It is possible to trigger it via the analyze tool, which is used to trace the service. It would be nice to have a simple way to test services without having to schedule them. This is no problem for a developer, but from the functional consultant point of view, the functional consultant needs to test the service and determine if it meets the requirements. It's not a big issue, but it would be nice to have.

General Manager Neverhack Spain at a tech vendor with 11-50 employees

Experience with robust integrator reveals strong performance and potential for interface updates

Based on my experience and my clients' feedback, there are a few points IBM can improve for IBM B2B Integrator. One of these is the graphical user interface. For several years, IBM has been promising to renew this interface, which has an ancient, old aesthetic, though it contains many functionalities. Creating a new interface would incur a very high internal cost with no new profitability for IBM. This is one of the points where customers say it feels like working in the 1990s with this interface. Another significant issue is that the platform is not multi-tenant. It's not possible to have different tenants in the cloud. This creates problems when trying to create SaaS offers based on IBM B2B Integrator, as there is the possibility that some workflow for a customer can be visible to another one. Since it's not multi-tenant, it's running on the same tenant of the platform. This is the main issue that the platform has.
