Scalable solution with an easy initial setup process
We use the solution for managing large programs, customer interactions, testing, and calculation purposes of our finance-based company The solution's most valuable feature is its ability to support dynamic developer profiles. We can easily create multiple accounts and rooms for different…
Arkabrata  Ghosh - PeerSpot reviewer
A scalable tool with great auto-configuration capabilities
The best feature of Spring MVC is its auto-configuration capabilities. A user need not configure anything in the product as it offers configuration files to set profiling and guide users with what they need to connect for development, staging, or production. The auto-configuration is one of the best components of the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use the solution to create microservices."
"The solution is stable."
"Provides a lightweight runtime."
"The most valuable features of Spring MVC are the modules, such as Spring Admin. All the Spring solutions work well together and are simple to maintain, such as the load balancing on the client side."
"We have found Spring is easy to use and learn."
"Spring has a speedy development process with a lightweight framework."
"When we shifted from our legacy frameworks to the Spring framework, we discovered that Spring definitely made our development easier. One good example is that there is a lot of boiler plate code available that you don't have to write from scratch, making the development of web applications a much simpler process."
"The most valuable feature is simplicity."
"The interface is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"The solution can scale."
"The solution is open-source and free to use."
 

Cons

"Deployment of microservers in the Kubernetes environment is difficult."
"Its performance speed could be improved while working on the browser."
"The tool needs to improve its messaging."
"The documentation for Spring MVC could improve."
"Spring MVC could improve the integration with DevOps and other applications."
"Adding more modules takes about 10 to 15 minutes each. It would be nice if they could reduce that part. The deployment time is a little high."
"It could provide faster performance."
"We would like the deployment of this solution to be easier as, at present, it is quite complicated."
"I expect the solution to offer and include a lot of packages so that it can be configured more easily or the speed level increases, thereby helping it overcome its shortcomings."
"The newer versions of Spring MVC have released a lot of features that we are not using right now because, in many cases, we are limited to running older versions. As such, it would be nice if Spring were to improve support for upgrading to newer versions, especially for legacy applications."
"I saw some error messages coming up when they were getting problems actually viewing all the reports."
