User-friendly and accessible for anyone with computer knowledge and logical thinking

There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool. Currently, it provides basic reports and the ability to create graphs and dashboards, but I'm looking forward to more robust analytics. The plan is to enhance this feature in 2024, around Q2 or Q3, which would save us from relying on external tools like Power BI for insights.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Back in the day, we could only get reports and analyze what happened after the fact, but today now we can generate real-time insights. Transformation Manager feeds your data science projects. We generate models and then give them to the clients, so they can come up with real-time predictions and recommendations in addition to reporting."

"It is a reliable solution."

"It is among the best, even if not widely known."

"It’s fairly easy to view, move, and mange access across different components. Different component types are categorized and can be viewed in a web based administration console."

"The main assets are its flow language, debugging, and Broker. Flow language is far better and more flexible for debugging."

"Currently, we're using this solution for the integration server which helps us to integrate with the mainframe."

"Given that you have one integration API in place, it takes very minimal effort to scale it to any other application that might want to use the same. Its flow-based development environment is a breeze and makes it really easy to re-use most of the existing components and build up a new API."

"webMethods Trading Networks is a good solution for interacting with outside of the organization. We can integrate the solutions with multiple outside the organization."

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

"How simple it is to create new solutions."

"The Software AG Designer has been great. It's very intuitive."

Cons

"They should build a functional architecture based on queuing."

"Transformation Manager reporting could be better. There are better options for reporting tools these days. We use Microsoft BI sometimes, but Tableau is becoming too expensive. Microsoft BI's visualization features are maturing."

"There is room for improvement in the solution's visualization tool."

"t doesn't represent OOP very well, just a method and proprietary interface called IData."

"The price should be reduced to make it more affordable."

"This is a great solution and the vendor could improve the marketing of the solution to be able to reach more clients."

"I would like to see the price improve."

"The product needs to be improved in a few ways. First, they need to stabilize the components of the whole platform across versions. Also, they should stop replacing old components with brand new ones and, rather, improve by evolution."

"webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors."

"The learning curve is a little steep at first."

"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive solution."

"The solution’s pricing is too high."

"The pricing and licensing costs for webMethods are very high, which is the only reason that we might switch to another product."

"This is not a cheap solution but, compared to other products such as those offered by IBM, the pricing is similar."

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

"The price is a little bit high, especially regarding their support."

"Its cost depends on the use cases."

"I signed a three-year deal with them. It is a yearly locked-in price for the next three years."

"There is a license needed to use the webMethods Integration Server."

Overview

Transformation Manager is an integrated development toolkit that is used to build data migration and data integration solutions more efficiently. A metadata-driven code generator, Transformation Manager provides users with the ability to generate lightweight, easy-to-deploy code. It combines a Graphical User Interface with a statement-driven mapping language. The Transformation Manager software derives metadata from the elements, attributes and relationships in a source and target model. Transformation Manager then uses rules specified by Simple Mapping Language (SML), which is specifically designed for implementing data transformation projects, to generate code written in Java.
