Cloud workflows have accelerated integrations and now demand better debugging and DevOps support
IBM App Connect provides many features, but there are several areas for improvement. Better debugging and observability would help us track any single transaction end-to-end across steps and connectors. Features such as a step-by-step line view and one-click download for flow execution would be beneficial. Improved CI/CD pipeline and GitOps experience would be valuable. The team wants flows as code and predictable promotion across development, test, and production environments. Stronger native Git integration, export-import functionalities, and first-class pipeline templates like Jenkins, GitHub, and Azure DevOps would be beneficial. More cloud-native, lightweight runtime options would be very helpful. Connector reliability and consistency need improvement because some connectors feel more mature than others, and version changes can break mapping. Pricing and licensing clarity is important because the licensing is complex and can slow down adoption and planning. Some improvement areas include handling very complex structures that the platform currently does not support. Improvements on the DevOps side, particularly providing templates, would be beneficial. The platform is somewhat expensive and hard to predict in terms of cost. Debugging features need to be provided. For CI/CD, the flows are not truly accurate and need improvement.

"Technical support is good."
"It's a powerful application for collaboration. It has many features for customization and integration."
"We are using App Connect because it's a more comprehensive solution that can handle many projects."
"I like the adapters. The adapters help us achieve scalability. If you want to connect to SAP, there's an adapter. Salesforce? There's an adapter. You want to connect to another system? There's likely an adapter for that."
"The most valuable feature is the user-friendliness of the application."
"Because it has a graphical developer interface, we can quickly develop solutions that are connecting to anything on the cloud, without having to build those connectors ourselves."

"Updates are constantly delayed."
"IBM App Connect occasionally crashes for various reasons, requiring problem-solving intervention."
"IBM App Connect should improve security features."
"I would like the ability for more than one developer to work on the same project (source control/branch merge)."
"IBM needs to enhance and have a stronger offering for the event streaming part because this is the future needed for the containerization and the new integration requirement."
"Updates are constantly delayed and that is something IBM could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"App Connect is not cheap."
"IBM App Connect's pricing is high compared to other products."
"The cost depends upon the consumer."
